util_qYXcont

internal

Calculate posterior joint and conditional probabilities, probability distributions of population frequencies, and information-theoretic measures, by means of Bayesian nonparametric methods. Data imputation is automatic and done in a principled way. Markov-chain Monte Carlo calculations are automatically handled and do not require user supervision. Applications range from statistical estimation and probabilistic hypothesis testing to evidence-based inference and decision making, in a wide range of disciplines from astrophysics to medicine.
