Package: simdd Type: Package Title: Simulation of Fisher Bingham and Related Directional Distributions Version: 1.1-2 Date: 2023-10-31 Authors@R: c(person(given = "John", family = "Kent", email = "j.t.kent@leeds.ac.uk", role = c("aut", "cph")), person(given = "Kassel Liam", family = "Hingee", role = "cre", email = "kassel.hingee@anu.edu.au") ) Description: Simulation methods for the Fisher Bingham distribution on the unit sphere, the matrix Bingham distribution on a Grassmann manifold, the matrix Fisher distribution on SO(3), and the bivariate von Mises sine model on the torus. The methods use an acceptance/rejection simulation algorithm for the Bingham distribution and are described fully by Kent, Ganeiber and Mardia (2018) . These methods supersede earlier MCMC simulation methods and are more general than earlier simulation methods. The methods can be slower in specific situations where there are existing non-MCMC simulation methods (see Section 8 of Kent, Ganeiber and Mardia (2018) for further details).
