Samples

Samples is the class to store the MCMC samples.

Usage

Samples(data, options)

.DefaultSamples()

Arguments

data

see slot definition.

options

see slot definition.

Slots

data

(list)
MCMC samples of the parameter. Each entry in this list must be a vector (in case of a scalar parameter) or matrix (in case of a vector-valued parameter) with samples. In case of matrix, every row is a separate sample, while columns correspond to the dimension of the parameter.

options

(McmcOptions)
MCMC options that were used to generate the samples.

Note

Typically, end users will not use the .DefaultSamples() function.

Examples

# The MCMC options that were used to generate the samples.
my_options <- McmcOptions(
  burnin = 1000,
  step = 2,
  samples = 1000
)

# Create an object of class 'Samples'
# Here the parameters 'alpha' and 'beta' are randomly generated. Of course, in
# a real example these would be a samples coming from MCMC procedures.
my_samples <- Samples(
  data = list(alpha = rnorm(1000), beta = rnorm(1000)),
  options = my_options
)
