uniform: Assume A Multivariate Uniform Prior Distribution for The Model Parameters
Description
Creates independent uniform prior distributions for the unknown model parameters as an object of class cprior.
Usage
uniform(lower, upper)
Arguments
lower
A vector of lower bounds for the model parameters.
upper
A vector of upper bounds for the model parameters.
Value
An object of class cprior that is a list with the following components:
fn: prior distribution as an R function with argument param that is the vector of the unknown parameters. See below.
npar: Number of unknown parameters and is equal to the length of param.
lower: Argument lower. It has the same length as param.
upper: Argument lower. It has the same length as param.
The list will be passed to the argument prior of the function bayes.
The order of the argument param in fn has the same order as the argument parvars when the model is specified by a formula.
Otherwise, it is equal to the argument param in the function fimfunc.
