Class `brmsfit` of models fitted with the brms package

Description

Models fitted with the brms package are represented as a brmsfit object, which contains the posterior draws (samples), model formula, Stan code, relevant data, and other information.

Details

See methods(class = "brmsfit") for an overview of available methods.

Slots

formula: A brmsformula object.
data: A data.frame containing all variables used in the model.
data2: A list of data objects which cannot be passed via data.
prior: A brmsprior object containing information on the priors used in the model.

backend: The name of the backend used to fit the model.
threads: An object of class 'brmsthreads' created by threading.
opencl: An object of class 'brmsopencl' created by opencl.
stan_args: Named list of additional control arguments that were passed to the Stan backend directly.
fit: An object of class stanfit among others containing the posterior draws.
