standard_error: Component-wise standard errors of B

In PLNmodels: Poisson Lognormal Models

Component-wise standard errors of B

Description

Extracts univariate standard errors for the estimated coefficient of B. Standard errors are computed from the (approximate) Fisher information matrix.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'PLNPCAfit'
standard_error(
  object,
  type = c("variational", "jackknife", "sandwich"),
  parameter = c("B", "Omega")
)

standard_error(
  object,
  type = c("variational", "jackknife", "sandwich"),
  parameter = c("B", "Omega")
)

## S3 method for class 'PLNfit'
standard_error(
  object,
  type = c("variational", "jackknife", "bootstrap", "sandwich"),
  parameter = c("B", "Omega")
)

## S3 method for class 'PLNfit_fixedcov'
standard_error(
  object,
  type = c("variational", "jackknife", "bootstrap", "sandwich"),
  parameter = c("B", "Omega")
)

## S3 method for class 'PLNmixturefit'
standard_error(
  object,
  type = c("variational", "jackknife", "sandwich"),
  parameter = c("B", "Omega")
)

## S3 method for class 'PLNnetworkfit'
standard_error(
  object,
  type = c("variational", "jackknife", "sandwich"),
  parameter = c("B", "Omega")
)

Arguments

object	an R6 object with class PLNfit
type	string describing the type of variance approximation: "variational", "jackknife", "sandwich" (only for fixed covariance). Default is "variational".
parameter	string describing the target parameter: either B (regression coefficients) or Omega (inverse residual covariance)

Value

A p * d positive matrix (same size as B) with standard errors for the coefficients of B

trichoptera <- prepare_data(trichoptera$Abundance, trichoptera$Covariate)
myPLN <- PLN(Abundance ~ 1 + offset(log(Offset)), data = trichoptera,
              control = PLN_param(config_post = list(variational_var = TRUE)))
standard_error(myPLN)
