Stata's new "margins" command is as powerful as "Zelig" package for R for the purpose of conducting post-estimation manipulation of the results (e.g. producing predicted probabilities, confidence intervals, etc.). While "margins" uses delta method, "Ze...

Comparison of results
I am doing a simple comparison of different estimation procedures in dealing with a simple binomial model. Here is where I got started:---------------------------------------------library(INLA)library(npmlreg)library(MCMCglmm)library(DPpackage)data(See...

Computational tools for Bayesian analysis
The increasing number of R-oriented Bayesian computational tools such as MCMCpack, MCMCglmm, DPpackage, R-INLA, spBayes, have made BUGS less and less crucial for day to day Bayesian computation. Honestly, I cannot figure out a single analysis that BUGS...

Lattice vs. ggplot2
Both lattice and ggplot2 seem really interesting and worthy of learning. But I only have time to learn one of them, and the choice is not an easy one.Here is an awesome reference; this blog is generally very interesting; and here is something...

For a wider use of R
Two things that are crucial for a wider use of R among applied researchers. The first one is data manipulation/reshaping tool. I think the package "reshape" and "reshape2" have done good job and have largely removed the barrier. The second one is ...

The "tikzDevice" package
The tikzDevice package is quite amazing. Here are two graphs I just made, with (lower) and without (upper) using the tikzDevice package. The difference in quality is huge.Since the LaTeX source file for the figure is quite large in size and may take si...
