The BoltzMM package allows for computation of probability mass
functions of fully-visible Boltzmann machines (FVBMs) via
pfvbm and allpfvbm. Random data can be
generated using rfvbm. Maximum pseudolikelihood estimation
of parameters via the MM algorithm can be conducted using
fitfvbm. Computation of partial derivatives and Hessians
can be performed via fvbmpartiald and
fvbmHessian. Covariance estimation and normal standard
errors can be computed using fvbmcov and
fvbmstderr.

Please refer to the following sources regarding various facets of the FVBM models that are implemented in the package.
The FVBM model and the consistency of their maximum pseudolikelihood
estimators (MPLEs) was first considered in http://doi.org/10.1162/neco.2006.18.10.2283. The MM
algorithm implemented in the main function fitfvbm was
introduced in http://doi.org/10.1162/NECO_a_00813. Here various
convergence results regarding the algorithm is proved. Next, the
asymptotic normality results pertaining to the use of the functions
fvbmstderr and fvbmtests are proved in http://doi.org/10.1109/TNNLS.2015.2425898. Finally, the
senate data was introduced and analysed in https://hal.archives-ouvertes.fr/hal-01927188v1.

Bagnall. The initial development of the package, in native
R was conducted by HDN. Implementation of the core loops of
the package in the C language was performed by ATJ. JJB
formatted and contributed the senate data set as well as
the example analysis on the senate data. All three
co-authors contributed to the documentation of the software as well as
troubleshooting and testing.
Using the package testthat, we have conducted the
following unit test for the GitHub build, on the date: 31 January, 2019.
The testing files are contained in the tests
folder of the repository.
