ISOpureS2.model_optimize.opt_vv: Optimize vv in step 2

Description Usage Arguments Value Author(s)

Description

This function optimizes vv, the strength parameter in the prior over the reference cancer profile. Note that we don't directly optimize vv because it has constraints (must be >=1 to guarantee real-valued likelihoods).

model

list containing all the parameters to be optimized

NUM_ITERATIONS_RMINIMIZE

minimum number of iteration that the minimization algorithm runs

iter

the iteration number

NUM_GRID_SEARCH_ITERATIONS
