LKJ: The LKJ Distribution for the Cholesky Factor of a Correlation Matrix
Description
Density and random generation for the LKJ distribution for the Cholesky factor of a correlation matrix.
Usage
dlkj_corr_cholesky(x, eta, p, log = FALSE)
rlkj_corr_cholesky(n = 1, eta, p)
Value
dlkj_corr_cholesky gives the density and rlkj_corr_cholesky generates random deviates.
Arguments
x
upper-triangular Cholesky factor of a correlation matrix.
eta
shape parameter.
p
size of the correlation matrix (number of rows and columns); required because random generation function has no information about dimension of matrix to generate without this argument.
log
logical; if TRUE, probability density is returned on the log scale.
n
number of observations (only n=1 is handled currently).
