⚠️There's a newer version (2.1.3) of this package.Take me there.

simPop (version 0.2.13)

Simulation of Synthetic Populations for Survey Data Considering Auxiliary Information

Description

Tools and methods to simulate populations for surveys based on auxiliary data. The tools include model-based methods, calibration and combinatorial optimization algorithms. The package was developed with support of the International Household Survey Network, DFID Trust Fund TF011722.
