## eco: Ecological inference in 2 x 2 Tables

We implement the Bayesian and likelihood methods proposed 

  in Imai, Lu, and Strauss (2008, 2011) for ecological inference in 2 

  by 2 tables as well as the method of bounds introduced by Duncan and 

  Davis (1953).  The package fits both parametric and nonparametric 

  models using either the Expectation-Maximization algorithms (for 

  likelihood models) or the Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithms (for 

  Bayesian models).  For all models, the individual-level data can be 

  directly incorporated into the estimation whenever such data are available.

  Along with in-sample and out-of-sample predictions, the package also

  provides a functionality which allows one to quantify the effect of data

  aggregation on parameter estimation and hypothesis testing under the

  parametric likelihood models.
