qbrms
Provides a 'brms'-like interface for fitting Bayesian regression models using 'INLA' (Integrated Nested Laplace Approximations) and 'TMB' (Template Model Builder). The package offers faster model fitting while maintaining familiar 'brms' syntax and output formats. Supports fixed and mixed effects models, multiple probability distributions, conditional effects plots, and posterior predictive checks with summary methods compatible with 'brms'. 'TMB' integration provides fast ordinal regression capabilities. Implements methods adapted from 'emmeans' for marginal means estimation and 'bayestestR' for Bayesian inference assessment. Methods are based on Rue et al. (2009) <doi:10.1111/j.1467-9868.2008.00700.x>, Kristensen et al. (2016) <doi:10.18637/jss.v070.i05>, Lenth (2016) <doi:10.18637/jss.v069.i01>, Bürkner (2017) <doi:10.18637/jss.v080.i01>, Makowski et al. (2019) <doi:10.21105/joss.01541>, and Kruschke (2014, ISBN:9780124058880).
