Open-source probabilistic programming language for Bayesian statistics, hierarchical models and MCMC inference.
Stan is an open-source probabilistic programming language and Bayesian statistical modelling platform supporting MCMC, variational inference, hierarchical models, generalised linear models and complex statistical models. It suits research that requires rigorous probabilistic modelling and uncertainty analysis.
Use cases: Bayesian statistics, probabilistic programming, hierarchical models, MCMC, uncertainty analysis
Note: Stan requires an understanding of probabilistic models, priors, likelihoods and convergence diagnostics.
