ContinuousPrior-class: Continuous univariate prior distributions

Description

ContinuousPrior is a sub-class of Prior implementing a generic representation of continuous prior distributions over a compact interval on the real line.

Usage

ContinuousPrior(pdf, support, tighten_support = FALSE,
  check_normalization = TRUE)
# S4 method for ContinuousPrior

Arguments

pdf

vectorized univariate PDF function

support

numeric vector of length two with the bounds of the compact interval on which the pdf is positive.

tighten_support

logical indicating if the support should be tightened

check_normalization

logical indicating if it should be checked that pdf defines a density.
