rms (version 6.0-0)

stanDxplot: stanDxplot

Description

Diagnostic Trace Plots

Usage

stanDxplot(
  x,
  which = NULL,
  rstan = FALSE,
  previous = TRUE,
  plotno = 1,
  rev = FALSE,
  stripsize = 8,
  ...
)

Arguments

x

an rms Bayesian fit object

which

names of parameters to plot, defaulting to all non-intercepts. When rstan=FALSE these are the friendly rms names, otherwise they are the rstan parameter names. If the model fit was run through stackMI for multiple imputation, the number of traces is multiplied by the number of imputations. Set to 'ALL' to plot all parameters.

rstan

set to TRUE to use rstan::traceplot on a (presumed) stored rstan object in x, otherwise only real iterations are plotted and parameter values are shown as points instead of lines, with chains separated

previous

see details

plotno

see details

rev

set to TRUE to reverse direction for faceting chains

stripsize

specifies size of chain facet label text, default is 8

...

passed to rstan::traceplot

Value

ggplot2 object if rstan object was in x

Details

For an rms Bayesian fit object, uses by default the stored posterior draws to check convergence properties of posterior sampling. If instead rstan=TRUE, calls the rstan traceplot function on the rstan object inside the rmsb object, to check properties of posterior sampling. If rstan=TRUE and the rstan object has been removed and previous=TRUE, attempts to find an already existing plot created by a previous run of the knitr chunk, assuming it was the plotno numbered plot of the chunk.
