Greetings, R users!
It is with pleasure that I am announcing the release of msmtools package on
CRAN:
https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/msmtools/index.html
msmtools provides a fast and general method for restructuring classical
longitudinal data into augmented ones. The reason for this is to facilitate the
modeling of longitudinal data under a multi-state framework using the 'msm?
package by Chris Jackson.
The tools is fitted for longitudinal datasets in which events are localized in
time (i.e. a starting and an ending time are present). The method is efficient
and fast and thus is suitable when dealing with highly dimensional datasets.
The package also includes two graphical goodness-of-fit tools which can roughly
assess the behaviour of the Markov model.
I hope you?ll find the package useful for your work!
For any issues you may encounter, please leave a related comment to my

Francesco
