makemyprior:Intuitive Construction of Joint Priors for Variance Parameters

Tool for easy prior construction and visualization. It helps to formulates joint prior distributions for variance parameters in latent Gaussian models. The resulting prior is robust and can be created in an intuitive way. A graphical user interface (GUI) can be used to choose the joint prior, where the user can click through the model and select priors. An extensive guide is available in the GUI. The package allows for direct inference with the specified model and prior. Using a hierarchical variance decomposition, we formulate a joint variance prior that takes the whole model structure into account. In this way, existing knowledge can intuitively be incorporated at the level it applies to. Alternatively, one can use independent variance priors for each model components in the latent Gaussian model. Details can be found in the accompanying scientific paper: Hem, Fuglstad, Riebler (2024, Journal of Statistical Software, <doi:10.18637/jss.v110.i03>).

expertsurv:Incorporate Expert Opinion with Parametric Survival Models

Enables users to incorporate expert opinion with parametric survival analysis using a Bayesian or frequentist approach. Expert Opinion can be provided on the survival probabilities at certain time-point(s) or for the difference in mean survival between two treatment arms. Please reference it's use as Cooney, P., White, A. (2023) <doi:10.1177/0272989X221150212>.
