The goal of holi is to provide web applications for higher order likelihood inference.
You can install the released version of ‘holi’ from CRAN:
install.packages("holi")
You can install the development version of holi from GitHub with:
# install.packages("devtools")
::install_github("mightymetrika/holi") devtools
This is a basic example which shows you how to compare the p-value from stats::glm() and the r* p-value from holi::rstar_glm() when analyzing ‘mtcars’. The holi::rstar_glm() function relies on likelihoodAsy::rstar().
library(holi)
# Fit model
<- rstar_glm(mpg ~ wt + hp, .data = mtcars, .model = "linear")

In this example, the p-value for r* (5.556e-07) is smaller than the p-value for stats::glm() (1.12e-06).
