Jeffreys Prior Distribution for $g$ for Mixtures of g-Priors for Coefficients in BMA Models

Description

Creates an object representing the Jeffrey's Prior on g mixture of g-priors on coefficients for BAS. This is equivalent to a limiting version of the CCH(a, 2, 0) with a = 0 or they hyper-g(a = 2) and is an improper prior. As $g$ does not appear in the Null Model, Bayes Factors and model probabilities are not well-defined because of arbitrary normalizing constants, and for this reason the null model is excluded and the same constants are used across other models.

Usage

Jeffreys()

Details

Creates a structure used for bas.glm.

Value

returns an object of class "prior", with the family and hyerparameters.
