...It is designed to make LLM usage accessible to data scientists and researchers who work primarily in R, allowing them to generate text, analyze data, and create embeddings without relying on external cloud services. The package emphasizes reproducibility and privacy by enabling local execution of models, which is especially valuable for sensitive or research-oriented workflows. It supports common LLM tasks such as text generation, annotation, and embedding creation, making it useful for tasks like document analysis and data labeling. The design mirrors familiar R workflows, allowing users to integrate AI capabilities into scripts, notebooks, and data pipelines with minimal friction. ...

In this tutorial, we describe a workflow to ensure long-term reproducibility of R-based data analyses. The workflow leverages established tools and practices from software engineering. It combines the benefits of various open-source software tools including R Markdown, Git, Make, and Docker, whose interplay ensures seamless integration of version management, dynamic report generation conforming to various journal styles, and full cross-platform and long-term computational reproducibility....

...Key inference approaches include full Bayesian inference via Hamiltonian Monte Carlo (specifically the No-U-Turn Sampler, NUTS), approximate Bayesian inference via variational methods, and optimization (penalized likelihood). RStan integrates with Stan’s automatic differentiation library, provides diagnostics, model comparison, posterior predictive checks, etc. It is used in research, applied statistics, and modelling workflows where flexibility and rigor in Bayesian methods are required.
