BayLum: Chronological Bayesian Models Integrating Optically Stimulated Luminescence and Radiocarbon Age Dating

Bayesian analysis of luminescence data and C-14 age estimates. Bayesian models are based on the following publications: Combes, B. & Philippe, A. (2017) <doi:10.1016/j.quageo.2017.02.003> and Combes et al. (2015) <doi:10.1016/j.quageo.2015.04.001>. This includes, amongst others, data import, export, application of age models and palaeodose model.
