posterior.beaver_mcmc_bma: Posterior Samples from Bayesian Model Averaging

Description

Calculate posterior quantities of interest using Bayesian model averaging.

Usage

# S3 method for beaver_mcmc_bma
posterior(
  x,
  doses = attr(x, "doses"),
  reference_dose = NULL,
  prob = c(0.025, 0.975),
  return_stats = TRUE,
  return_samples = FALSE,
  new_data = NULL,
  contrast = NULL,
  reference_type = c("difference", "ratio"),
  ...
)

Value

A list with the elements stats and samples. When using this function with default settings, samples is NULL and stats is a dataframe summarizing the posterior samples. stats contains, at a minimum, the columns "dose", ".contrast_index", "(Intercept)", "value", and variables corresponding to the values passed in prob ("2.50%" and "97.50%" by default). When return_stats is set to FALSE, stats is NULL. When return_samples is set to TRUE, samples is a dataframe with the posterior samples for each iteration of the MCMC. The dataframe will have, at a minimum, the columns "iter" and "model", indicating the MCMC iteration and the model that was used in the calculations, as well as the columns "dose", ".contrast_index", "(Intercept)", and "value". The functions used for each model are defined within the model_negbin_XYZ()

functions and used in the beaver_mcmc() function.

Arguments

x

an object output from beaver_mcmc().

doses

doses at which to obtain the posterior.

reference_dose

dose to which to compare as either a difference or ratio.

prob

the percentiles of the posterior to calculate for each dose.

return_stats

logical indicating if the posterior mean and quantiles should be returned.

return_samples

logical indicating if posterior mean samples should be returned.

new_data

a dataframe for which the posterior will be calculated for each observation's covariate values.

contrast

a matrix containing where each row contains a contrast for which the posterior will be calculated.

reference_type

whether to provide the posterior of the difference or the ratio between each dose and the reference dose.

...

additional arguments will throw an error.

Examples

# \donttest{
# The {beaver} package, by definition, performs MCMC for multiple models.
# Even with a small number of chains/burn-ins/samples, a minimally illustrative
# example requires >5s to run.
