Wasserstein Barycenters of Subset Posteriors.

waspr

The goal of waspr is to compute Wasserstein barycenters of subset posteriors.

Installation

The R-package waspr can be installed from CRAN as follows:

install.packages("waspr")

You can install a beta-version of waspr from github with:

install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("joliencremers/waspr")

Citation

To cite the package ‘waspr’ in publications use:

Jolien Cremers (2020). waspr: Wasserstein Barycenters of Subset Posteriors. R package version 1.0.1. https://CRAN.R-project.org/package=waspr

or

Example

This is a basic example which shows you how to compute the Wasserstein barycenter from a set of MCMC outputs for several data subsets. A more extensive explanation of the usage of the package can be found in the Tutorial vignette.
