empericalBA: The empirical Bayesian approach for Beta-Binomial model

Description

The empirical Bayesian approach for Beta-Binomial model

Usage

empericalBA(n, alp, sL, sU)

Arguments

n

- Number of trials

alp

- Alpha value (significance level required)

sL

- Lower support for MLE optimization

sU

- Upper support for MLE optimization

Value

A dataframe with

x

- Number of successes (positive samples)

pomean

- Posterior mean

LBAQ

- Lower limits of Quantile based intervals

UBAQ

- Upper limits of Quantile based intervals

LBAH

- Lower limits of HPD intervals

UBAH

- Upper limits of HPD intervals

Details

Highest Probability Density (HPD) and two tailed intervals are provided for all \(x = 0, 1, 2 ..n\) based on empirical Bayesian approach for Beta-Binomial model. Lower and Upper support values are needed to obtain the MLE of marginal likelihood for prior parameters.
