This tutorial will aim to provide an interaction introduction to the use of Stan in R with RStan and ShinyStan. We´ll write and fit a few models, analyze those fits using numerical and visual diagnostics, and investigate potential solutions for poor fits.
Anyone interested in attending is encouraged to download the latest versions of RStan and ShinyStan before the conference. For help with installation issues please consult the Stan Users´ List.
