  11. ๐Ÿฆ˜bsvars.org design concept pt. 4 ๐Ÿจ

    ๐Ÿ‹ Once you work with Bayesian structural dynamic non-linear system modelling everything takes a while! So, we delegate EVERYTHING to much faster C++ code! ๐Ÿฆˆ

  12. ๐Ÿ–ค bsvars.org design concept pt. 3 ๐Ÿ’œ

    โญ We use RcppArmadillo for linear algebra because we found it very fast on matrix operations and RNGs, well-documented, easy to use in packages. We ๐Ÿ–ค it! Seriously!

    โญ We implemented C++ code using Rcpp and could not be more glad about that! It's a fantastic facility with many functionalities.

    โœจ And it seems that @eddelbuettel is answering all Rcpp questions the following Canadian morning, which is so great!

  24. We're super happy to announce the bsvarSIGNs package version 2.0 ๐Ÿš€

    And the beautiful vignette by Adam Wang & @tomaszwozniak in it! ๐Ÿ“„

    It's on CRAN now: doi.org/10.32614/CRAN.package.

  25. ๐Ÿ’“ Coding Bayesian structural multivariate dynamic models, where each of the adjectives adds up to computational complexity, requires the best solutions, soโ€ฆ

    ๐Ÿ’— I decided that combining the best of the two worlds, fast computations with C++ and the ease of data analysis with R, is the way to go.

  26. Luis asked why have I chosen to develop packages for Bayesian SVARs in R. This is why:

    ๐Ÿ’ I really like the format of R packages how itโ€™s standardised and checked at the CRAN assuring quality.

    ๐Ÿ’– R was missing tools for SVARs and particularly on Bayesian SVARs. There were some such packages, but the literature and usersโ€™ needs are much broader.

    ๐Ÿ’˜ The core code for most of algorithms in our packages is written in C++ which is much faster.
