loglikelihood_admkr: Calculate the log likelihood used in the Chib's (1995) log marginal density

Description

Log marginal likelihood = Log likelihood + Log prior - Log density

Usage

loglikelihood_admkr(h2, data_x, data_y)

Arguments

h2

Square of re-parameterized bandwidths

data_x

Regressors

data_y

Response variable

Value

The value of log likelihood, with parameters (bandwidths) estimated from the MCMC iterations

Details

Calculates the log likelihood using the estimated averaged bandwidths of the regressors and estimated averaged variance of the error density
