sample_multinomial: Samples from a PMP object

In TBFmultinomial: TBF Methodology Extension for Multinomial Outcomes

Description

This function samples from a specific model inside a PMP object.

Usage

sample_multinomial(PMP_object, shrink = TRUE, data, which = "MPM",
  discreteSurv = TRUE)

Arguments

PMP_object	formula of the model including all potential variables
shrink	should the coefficients be shrunken towards their prior mean?
data	the (training) data frame with all the information
which	which model should be sampled from? either an integer, 'MPM' or 'MAP'
discreteSurv	Boolean variable telling us whether a 'simple' multinomial regression is looked for or if the goal is a discrete survival-time model for multiple modes of failure is needed.

Value

returns an object with the model coefficients and supplementary information
