Implements Bayesian spatial and spatiotemporal
    models that optionally allow for extreme spatial deviations through
    time. 'glmmfields' uses a predictive process approach with random
    fields implemented through a multivariate-t distribution instead of
    the usual multivariate normal.  Sampling is conducted with 'Stan'.

Conducts hierarchical partitioning to calculate individual contributions of each predictor (fixed effects) towards marginal R2 for generalized linear mixed-effect model (including lm, glm and glmm) based on output of r.squaredGLMM() in 'MuMIn', applying the algorithm of Lai J.,Zou Y., Zhang S.,Zhang X.,Mao L.(2022)glmm.hp: an R package for computing individual effect of predictors in generalized linear mixed models.Journal of Plant Ecology,15(6)1302-1307<doi:10.1093/jpe/rtac096>.

Fit Generalized Linear Models to continuous and count outcomes, as well as estimate the prevalence of misrepresentation of an important binary predictor. Misrepresentation typically arises when there is an incentive for the binary factor to be misclassified in one direction (e.g., in insurance settings where policy holders may purposely deny a risk status in order to lower the insurance premium). This is accomplished by treating a subset of the response variable as resulting from a mixture distribution. Model parameters are estimated via the Expectation Maximization algorithm and standard errors of the estimates are obtained from closed forms of the Observed Fisher Information. For an introduction to the models and the misrepresentation framework, see Xia et. al., (2023) <https://variancejournal.org/article/73151-maximum-likelihood-approaches-to-misrepresentation-models-in-glm-ratemaking-model-comparisons>.
