In dalmatian: Automating the Fitting of Double Linear Mixed Models in 'JAGS' and 'nimble'

Description

Set initial values for dalmatian

Usage

setJAGSInits(
  mean.model,
  dispersion.model,
  fixed.mean = NULL,
  fixed.dispersion = NULL,
  y = NULL,
  random.mean = NULL,
  sd.mean = NULL,
  random.dispersion = NULL,
  sd.dispersion = NULL
)

Arguments

mean.model	Model list specifying the structure of the mean. (list)
dispersion.model	Model list specifying the structure of the dispersion. (list)
fixed.mean	Initial values for the fixed effects of the mean. (numeric)
fixed.dispersion	Initial values for the fixed effects of the dispersion. (numeric)
y	Initial values for the true response. This should only be specified if the rounding = TRUE in the main call to dalmatian.
random.mean	Initial values for the random effects of the mean. (numeric)
sd.mean	Initial values for the standard deviation of the random effects of the mean. (numeric)
random.dispersion	Initial values for the random effects of the dispersion. (numeric
sd.dispersion	Initial values for the standard deviation of the random effects of the dispersion. (numeric)

Details

Allows the user to set initial values for dalmatian. Any values not specified will by initialized by JAGS.
