NobBS 1.0.0 (2024-01-08)

NobBS 0.1.0 (2020-03-03)

See README.md for a full tutorial on using the NobBS package.

Updates to the development version include:

• A function for stratified Bayesian nowcasting, NobBS.strat
• An argument to specify the proportion_reported and inflate the estimated cases by that factor, important in outbreaks with severe under-reporting or asymptomatic cases.
• Additional checks and warnings issued for impossible temporal combinations of moving window sizes, maximum delay D, and the length of the time series.
• Warning issued when a case onset week is skipped in the time series or is missing reports altogether.
• Plot examples
