boot_jaatha: Parametric Bootstrapping of Jaatha Estimates
Description
This function is a helper function for using the boot
function to bootstrap Jaatha estimates. Each bootstap replication requires
a complete jaatha estimation on data simulated with the original parameter
estimates. Therefore, bootstrapping is normally computationally demanding and
should be executed on a computing cluster. The jaatha analyses are
resticted to a single CPU cores, so that as many replicas as possible can
be executed in parallel using the corresponding options of
boot
.Usage
boot_jaatha(model, data, results, R, ...)
Arguments
results
The results of an jaatha
analysis performed with
the same model
and data
as passed to this function. R
The number of bootstrapping replicates that are performed.
...
Additional arguments that are passed on boot
.
It is highly recommended to use its parallel
and ncpus
options to parallelize the bootstrap replicates. Value
- The result of
boot
. This object can be used to
estimate standard errors or confidence intervals of the estimates using
the functions available in package boot.
