In ToxicR: Analyzing Toxicology Dose-Response Data

create_continuous_prior Given priorlist, a model, and a distribution. Create a prior for a given analysis.

Description

create_continuous_prior Given priorlist, a model, and a distribution. Create a prior for a given analysis.

Usage

create_continuous_prior(prior_list, model, distribution, deg = 2)

Arguments

prior_list	First Prior
model	Model to be used one of "hill","exp-3","exp-5","power","polynomial"
distribution	- Normal "normal", Normal non-constant variance "normal-ncv", or log-normal "lognormal"
deg	- For polynomial models only, the degree of the polynomial.

Value

new BMDprior list. This object is essentially a prior list constructed by create_prior_lists with a model type and variance type.

Examples

plist<- create_prior_list(normprior(0,0.1,-100,100), # a
                          normprior(0,1,  -1e2,1e2),     # b
                          lnormprior(1,0.2,0,18),  #k
                          normprior(0,1,-18,18))
 
 power_normal <- create_continuous_prior(plist,"power","normal")
