LN_MeanReg | R Documentation |
This function produces a bayesian estimate of the conditional log-normal mean assuming a GIG prior for the variance and an improper prior for the regression coefficients of the linear regression in the log scale.
LN_MeanReg( y, X, Xtilde, method = "weak_inf", y_transf = TRUE, h = NULL, CI = TRUE, alpha_CI = 0.05, type_CI = "two-sided", nrep = 1e+05 )

Vector of observations of the response variable. |
X |

Xtilde |
Matrix of covariate patterns for which an estimate is required. |

alpha_CI |
Level of alpha that determines the credibility (1- |
type_CI |
String that indicates the type of interval to compute: |
nrep |

In this function the same procedure as LN_Mean is implemented allowing for the inclusion of covariates. Bayesian point and interval estimates for the response variabile in the original scale are provided considering the model: log(y_i)=Xβ.
The function returns a list including the prior and posterior parameters, the point estimate of the log-normal mean conditioned with respect to the covariate
points included in Xtilde
. It consists of the mean of the posterior
distribution for the functional \exp\{\tilde{x}_i^Tβ+σ^2/2\} and the posterior variance.
