description: An R package containing C++ implementations to speed up the simulation and parameter estimation of the Predictive Pedestrian model. This package is currently not self-contained but should be used in combination with code from the [predped](https://github.com/CharlotteTanis/predped) repository. The m4ma package includes C++ implementations that can be used instead of R code from predped. The functions in m4ma have in most cases the same names as functions in predped, so that they can be easily substituted. Exceptions are functions to estimate parameters and likelihoods. Benchmarks that show the speed improvement of m4ma implementations compared to predped can be found [here](https://github.com/m4ma/m4ma-performance/tree/main/bench).
