logpriors_gaussian(h2, data_x, prior_p, prior_st)

Arguments

h2

Square of re-parameterized bandwidths and square of normal error variance

data_x

Regressors

prior_p

prior_st

Hyperparameter used in the inverse-gamma prior

Details

Calculate the log prior using the estimated averaged bandwidths of the regressors and the estimated averaged variance of the error density, obtained from the MCMC iterations

Value

Value of the log prior
