dPosterior.GaussianNIG: Density function of the posterior distribution of a...

Description Usage Arguments Value See Also Examples

View source: R/Gaussian_Inference.r

Description

Generate the the density value of the posterior distribution of the following structure:

x \sim Gaussian(X beta,sigma^2)

sigma^2 \sim InvGamma(a,b)

beta \sim Gaussian(m,sigma^2 V)

Where X is a row vector, or a design matrix where each row is an obervation. InvGamma() is the Inverse-Gamma distribution, Gaussian() is the Gaussian distribution. See ?dInvGamma and dGaussian for the definitions of these distribution.
The model structure and prior parameters are stored in a "GaussianNIG" object.
Posterior density is the density function of beta,sigma^2|a,b,m,V.
