new package bundle on CRAN: BACCO

Dear List

please find on CRAN a new R bundle, BACCO, for Bayesian analysis of
random functions, comprising two packages: emulator and calibrator.

Package calibrator implements:

?Bayesian calibration of computer models?, M. C. Kennedy and A.  
O'Hagan 2001. Journal of the Royal Statistical Society B, 63(3)  
pp425-464


and package emulator implements:
J. Oakley 2004. ?Estimating percentiles of uncertain computer code  
outputs?. Applied Statistics, 53(1), pp89-93.

J. Oakley and A. O'Hagan, 2002. ?Bayesian Inference for the  
Uncertainty Distribution of Computer Model Outputs?, Biometrika 89 
(4), pp769-784





The bundle is described in:

R. K. S. Hankin 2005. ?Introducing BACCO, an R bundle for Bayesian  
analysis of computer code output?, Journal of Statistical Software, 14 
(16)
