bayesnec
is a toxicity estimate and
No-Effect-Concentration estimation package that uses brms
to
fit concentration(dose)-response data using Bayesian methods for the
purpose of estimating both ECX values, but more particularly NEC. Please
see ?bnec
for a more detailed help file.
To install the latest release version from CRAN use
install.packages("bayesnec")
The current development version can be downloaded from GitHub via
if (!requireNamespace("remotes")) {
install.packages("remotes")
}
remotes::install_github("open-aims/bayesnec", ref = "dev")
Because bayesnec
is based on brms
and Stan, a C++ compiler is required. The
program Rtools comes
with a C++ compiler for Windows. On Mac, you should install Xcode. See
the prerequisites section on this link
for further instructions on how to get the compilers running.
Usage and further information about bayesnec
can be seen
on the project page
and the vignettes.
Help files for the individual functions can be found on the reference
page.
