In ddtlcm: Latent Class Analysis with Dirichlet Diffusion Tree Process Prior

Attach a subtree to a given DDT at a randomly selected location

Description

Attach a subtree to a given DDT at a randomly selected location

Usage

reattach_point(tree_kept, c, c_order = 1, theta = 0, alpha = 0)

Arguments

tree_kept	the tree to be attached to
c	hyparameter of divergence function a(t)
c_order	equals 1 (default) or 2 to choose divergence function a(t) = c/(1-t) or c/(1-t)^2.
alpha, theta	hyparameter of branching probability a(t) Gamma(m-alpha) / Gamma(m+1+theta) For DDT, alpha = theta = 0. For general multifurcating tree from a Pitman-Yor process, specify positive values to alpha and theta. It is, however, recommended using alpha = theta = 0 in inference because multifurcating trees have not been tested rigorously.

Value

a list of the following objects:

div_time

a numeric value of newly sampled divergence time. Between 0 and 1.

root_node

a character. Label of the root node of tree_kept.

root_child

a character. Label of the child node of the root of tree_kept.

div_dist_to_root_child

a N-vector with integer entries from 1, ..., K. The initial values for individual class assignments.
