The CausalImpact repository houses an R package that implements causal inference in time series using Bayesian structural time series models. Its goal is to estimate the effect of an intervention (e.g. a marketing campaign, policy change) on a time series outcome by predicting what would have happened in a counterfactual “no intervention” world. The package requires as input a response time series plus one or more control (covariate) time series that are assumed unaffected by the...

blavaan is a free, open-source R package for Bayesian latent variable analysis. It relies on JAGS and Stan to estimate models via MCMC. The blavaan functions and syntax are similar to lavaan. The development version of blavaan (containing updates not yet on CRAN) can be installed via the command provided in the documentation. Compilation is required; this may be a problem for users who currently rely on a binary version of blavaan from CRAN. The blavaan package depends on the lavaan package...

The forecast package is a comprehensive R package for time series analysis and forecasting. It provides functions for building, assessing, and using univariate forecasting models (e.g. ARIMA, exponential smoothing, etc.), tools for automatic model selection, diagnostics, plotting, forecasting future values, etc. It's widely used in statistics, economics, business forecasting, environmental science, etc. Exponential smoothing state space models (ETS) including seasonal components.
