BAS (version 1.7.5)

update.bas: Update BAS object using a new prior

Description

Update a BMA object using a new prior distribution on the coefficients.

Usage

# S3 method for bas
update(object, newprior, alpha = NULL, ...)

Value

A new object of class BMA

Arguments

object

BMA object to update

newprior

Update posterior model probabilities, probne0, shrinkage, logmarg, etc, using prior based on newprior. See bas for available methods

alpha

optional new value of hyperparameter in prior for method

...

optional arguments
