Hi everyone,

I am wondering if there exists a stepwise regression function for the
Bayesian regression model.  I tried googling, but I couldn't find
anything.  I know "step" function exists for regular stepwise regression,
but nothing for Bayes.


Why?  That seems so ... un-Bayesian ...

Exactly. I hope it doesn't exist. The beauty of Bayes is shrinkage, borrowing of information, and statement of results in an intuitive way.
