BAS (version 1.7.5)

intrinsic: Intrinsic Prior Distribution for Coefficients in BMA Models

Description

Creates an object representing the intrinsic prior on g, a special case of the tCCH mixture of g-priors on coefficients for BAS.

Usage

intrinsic(n = NULL)

Value

returns an object of class "prior", with the family "intrinsic" of class "TCCH" and hyperparameters alpha = 1, beta = 1, s = 0, r = 1, n = n for the tCCH prior where theta in the tCCH prior is determined by the model size and sample size.

Arguments

n

the sample size; if NULL, the value derived from the data in the call to `bas.glm` will be used.

Author

Merlise A Clyde

Details

Creates a structure used for bas.glm.
