Usage

draw_lm_basic_cont(piv, Pi, Mu, Si, n)

Value

Y

array of continuous outcomes (n x TT x r)

Arguments

piv

vector of initial probabilities of the latent Markov chain

Pi

set of transition probabilities matrices (k x k x TT)

Mu

matrix of conditional means for the response variables (r x k)

Si

var-cov matrix common to all states (r x r)

n

sample size

Examples

if (FALSE) {

# draw a sample for 1000 units and 3 response variable
n <- 1000
TT <- 5
k <- 2
r <- 3 #number of response variables

piv <- c(0.7,0.3)
Pi <- matrix(c(0.9,0.1,0.1,0.9), k, k)
Pi <- array(Pi, c(k, k, TT))
Pi[,,1] <- 0
Mu <- matrix(c(-2,-2,0,0,2,2), r, k)
Si <- diag(r)
out <- draw_lm_basic_cont(piv, Pi, Mu, Si, n)
