INLAvaan (development version)

  • Support for lavaan 0.6-21.
  • Implemented variational Bayes mean correction for posterior marginals.

INLAvaan 0.2

  • INLAvaan has been rewritten from the ground up specifically for SEM models. The new version does not call R-INLA directly, but instead uses the core approximation ideas to fit SEM models more efficiently.
  • Features are restricted to normal likelihoods only and continuous observations for now.
  • Support for most models that lavaan/blavaan can fit, including CFA, SEM, and growth curve models.
  • Support for multigroup analysis.
  • Added PPP and DIC model fit indices.
  • Added prior specification for all model parameters.
  • Added support for fixed values and parameter constraints.
  • Initial CRAN submission.

INLAvaan 0.1

  • Used rgeneric functionality of R-INLA to implement a basic SEM framework.
