MAPCtools: Multivariate Age-Period-Cohort (MAPC) Modeling for Health Data

Bayesian multivariate age-period-cohort (MAPC) models for analyzing health data, with support for model fitting, visualization, stratification, and model comparison. Inference focuses on identifiable cross-strata differences, as described by Riebler and Held (2010) <doi:10.1093/biostatistics/kxp037>. Methods for handling complex survey data via the 'survey' package are included, as described in Mercer et al. (2014) <doi:10.1016/j.spasta.2013.12.001>.
