Description

Provides functions for estimating marginal likelihoods, Bayes factors, posterior model probabilities, and normalizing constants in general, via different versions of bridge sampling (Meng & Wong, 1996, <https://www3.stat.sinica.edu.tw/statistica/j6n4/j6n43/j6n43.htm>). Gronau, Singmann, & Wagenmakers (2020) <doi:10.18637/jss.v092.i10>.
