Desmarais)Implements the Projected Actor Locations (PALS) method for spatial modeling of dyadic interactions between geographically mobile actors, as described in Kim, Liu and Desmarais (2023) <doi:10.1017/psrm.2022.6>. PALS applies exponential-smoothing weights to the spatiotemporal histories of a focal actor and its interaction partners ("alters") to project the location of future interactions. The package provides projection, maximum-similarity parameter estimation by minimizing great-circle (Haversine) prediction error, nonparametric bootstrap with multiple-imputation (Rubin's Rules) pooling, dyadic distance covariate construction, visualization, and a simulated example dataset of subnational conflict.https://github.com/r-universe/bdesmarais/actions/runs/28646284847Thu, 02 Jul 2026 09:05:07 GMTpalsr0.1.0successhttps://bdesmarais.r-universe.devhttps://github.com/bdesmarais/palsrpalsr.Rmdpalsr.htmlProjecting actor locations and modeling dyadic interactions with PALS2026-06-13 11:12:062026-06-24 10:41:52
