createRhoFunction: Create Rho-Functions With Custom Tuning Parameter

Description

Convenience function to create rho-functions with custom tuning parameter.

Usage

createRhoFunction(
  tuningParameter,
  which = c("rho.e", "rho.sigma.e", "rho.b.diagonal", "rho.sigma.b.diagonal",
    "rho.b.blockDiagonal", "rho.sigma.b.blockDiagonal"),
  rho.e = smoothPsi,
  rho.sigma.e = psi2propII(rho.e),
  rho.b.diagonal = rho.e,
  rho.sigma.b.diagonal = psi2propII(rho.b.diagonal),
  rho.b.blockDiagonal = rho.e,
  rho.sigma.b.blockDiagonal = rho.b.blockDiagonal,
  ...
)

Arguments

Details

'rho.b.diagonal' denotes the tuning parameter to be used for 'rho.b' for models with diagonal random effects covariance matrix. 'rho.b.blockDiagonal' is the tuning parameter to be used in the block diagonal case, respectively.

For arguments rho.sigma.e (and rho.sigma.b.diagonal), the Proposal 2 variant of the function specified for rho.e (and rho.b) is used.

Examples

  createRhoFunction(c(1.345, 2.28, 1.345, 2.28, 5.14, 5.14), "rho.sigma.e")
