Chronological modelling

ADMUR

Tools to directly model underlying population dynamics using chronological datasets (radiocarbon and other) with a variety of models, including Continuous Piecewise Linear (CPL) model framework, and model comparison framework using BIC. Package also calibrates 14C samples, and generates Summed Probability Distributions (SPD). CPL modelling directly estimates the most likely population trajectory given a dataset, using SPD simulation analysis to generate a Goodness-of-fit test for the best selected model.

aion

Provides a system of classes and methods to represent and work with archaeological time-series.

allen-relations

Allen relations from Bayesian calibration: R function to compare two indefinite intervals produced by a Bayesian calibration using the Allen algebra.

aoristAAR
