PhasePlot: Plot of the marginal posterior densities of a phase

In RChronoModel: Post-Processing of the Markov Chain Simulated by ChronoModel or Oxcal

Description

This function draws the marginal posterior densities of the minimum and the maximum of the dates included in the phase

Usage

PhasePlot(PhaseMin_chain, PhaseMax_chain, level = 0.95,
  title = "Characterisation of a phase", colors = T,
  GridLength = 1024)

Arguments

PhaseMin_chain	numeric vector containing the output of the MCMC algorithm for the minimum of the dates included in the phase
PhaseMax_chain	numeric vector containing the output of the MCMC algorithm for the maximum of the dates included in the phase
level	probability corresponding to the level of confidence used for the credible interval and the time range
title	title of the graph
colors	if TRUE -> use of colors in the graph
GridLength	length of the grid used to estimate the density

Value

A plot with the marginal posterior densities of the minimum and the maximum of the dates included in the phase and adds several summary statistics (mean, Credible interval, Time range)
