title: 'dream: Dynamic Relational Event Analysis and Modeling'
version: 2.1.2
doi: 10.32614/CRAN.package.dream
abstract: 'A set of tools for relational and event analysis, including two- and one-mode
  network brokerage and structural measures, and helper functions optimized for relational
  event analysis with large datasets, including creating relational risk sets, computing
  network statistics, estimating relational event models, and simulating relational
  event sequences. For more information on relational event models, see Butts (2008)
