update_obs: Updating an 'SLik_j' object for new data

In Infusion: Inference Using Simulation

Updating an 'SLik_j' object for new data

Description

.update_obs is an experimental utility to recycle the information in an inference object to produce an inference for different data without repeating a simulation workflow. Beyond its experimental nature, its result is not expected to provide the same precision of inference as a standard iterative Infusion workflow, since the recycled simulations were adapted to the original data only (.update_obs indeed allows one to investigate the effect of using this non-adapted information). So the new results should not be used as a equivalent to a full Infusion iterative workflow.

Usage

.update_obs(object, new.obs, CIs = FALSE, eval_RMSEs = FALSE, ...)

Arguments

object	an object of class "SLik_j" as createded by infer_SLik_joint (possible updated by MSL and refine).
new.obs	A named vector of summary statistics (ideally the projected ones, but raw ones are handled)
CIs, eval_RMSEs, ...	further arguments passed to MSL.

Value

An object of class "SLik_j" as the input object.
