Implements the integrative conditional autoregressive horseshoe model discussed in Jendoubi, T., Ebbels, T.M. Integrative analysis of time course metabolic data and biomarker discovery. BMC Bioinformatics 21, 11 (2020) <doi:10.1186/s12859-019-3333-0>. The model consists in three levels: Metabolic pathways level modeling interdependencies between variables via a conditional auto-regressive (CAR) component, integrative analysis level to identify potential associations between heterogeneous omic variables via a Horseshoe prior and experimental design level to capture experimental design conditions through a mixed-effects model. The package also provides functions to simulate data from the model, construct pathway matrices, post process and plot model parameters.
