Facts

Purpose
rmcmc is an R package for simulating Markov chains to compute MCMC estimates of expectations for target distributions on real-valued vector spaces.github-pages.ucl.ac.uk · 5 Oct 2026
Sampling methods
It supports Metropolis-Hastings transitions with random-walk, Langevin, Hamiltonian, and Barker proposals; Barker is the default.github-pages.ucl.ac.uk · 5 Oct 2026
Warm-up adaptation
During warm-up, adapters can tune proposal scale and shape.github-pages.ucl.ac.uk · 5 Oct 2026
Target distributions
The sampling function accepts a log-density formula, a list of density and gradient functions, or a BridgeStan StanModel when BridgeStan is installed.github-pages.ucl.ac.uk · 5 Oct 2026
Stan integration
The package can use Stan models through BridgeStan’s R interface when that interface is installed.github-pages.ucl.ac.uk · 5 Oct 2026
Other integrations
The site says ramcmc can provide robust adaptive Metropolis proposal adaptation, and generated chain output can be passed to posterior summary and convergence-diagnostic functions.github-pages.ucl.ac.uk · 5 Oct 2026
Output
Sampling returns the final chain state, main-iteration traces, and transition statistics; warm-up traces and statistics are available when trace_warm_up is enabled.github-pages.ucl.ac.uk · 5 Oct 2026
Installation
The site gives CRAN installation with install.packages("rmcmc") and GitHub installation for the development version.github-pages.ucl.ac.uk · 5 Oct 2026
License
The site identifies the package license as MIT.github-pages.ucl.ac.uk · 5 Oct 2026
Support
The site links to GitHub issues for bug reports and provides a contributing guide and code of conduct.github-pages.ucl.ac.uk · 5 Oct 2026
Intended use
The package is for users who want to define a target distribution and sample a Markov chain, with a documented example fitting a model to neuroscience data using Stan.github-pages.ucl.ac.uk · 5 Oct 2026
