empericalBAx: The empirical Bayesian approach for Beta-Binomial model given x

Description

The empirical Bayesian approach for Beta-Binomial model given x

Usage

empericalBAx(x, n, alp, sL, sU)

Arguments

x
- Number of successes
n
- Number of trials
alp
- Alpha value (significance level required)
sL
- Lower support for MLE optimization
sU
- Upper support for MLE optimization

Value

A dataframe with
x
- Number of successes (positive samples)
pomean
- Posterior mean
LEBAQ
- Lower limits of Quantile based intervals
UEBAQ
- Upper limits of Quantile based intervals
LEBAH
- Lower limits of HPD intervals
UEBAH
- Upper limits of HPD intervals

Details

Highest Probability Density (HPD) and two tailed intervals are provided for the required x (any one value from \( 0, 1, 2 ..n\)) based on empirical Bayesian approach for Beta-Binomial model. Lower and Upper support values are needed to obtain the MLE of marginal likelihood for prior parameters.
