as_draws-dynamitefit: Convert 'dynamite' Output to 'draws_df' Format

In dynamite: Bayesian Modeling and Causal Inference for Multivariate Longitudinal Data

Convert dynamite Output to draws_df Format

Description

Converts the output from a dynamite() call to a draws_df format of the posterior package, enabling the use of diagnostics and plotting methods of posterior and bayesplot packages. Note that this function returns variables in a wide format, whereas as.data.frame.dynamitefit() uses the long format.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'dynamitefit'
as_draws_df(
  x,
  parameters = NULL,
  responses = NULL,
  types = NULL,
  times = NULL,
  groups = NULL,
  ...
)

## S3 method for class 'dynamitefit'
as_draws(x, parameters = NULL, responses = NULL, types = NULL, ...)

Arguments

x	[dynamitefit] The model fit object.
parameters	[character()] Parameter(s) for which the samples should be extracted. Possible options can be found with function get_parameter_names(). Default is all parameters of specific type for all responses. This argument is mutually exclusive with types.
responses	[character()] Response(s) for which the samples should be extracted. Possible options are elements of unique(x$priors$response), and the default is this entire vector. Ignored if the argument parameters is supplied. omega_alpha, and omega_psi. See also get_parameter_types().
types	[character()] Type(s) of the parameters for which the samples should be extracted. See details of possible values. Default is all values listed in details except spline coefficients omega. This argument is mutually exclusive with parameters.
times	[double()] Time point(s) to keep. If NULL (the default), all time points are kept.
groups	[character()] Group name(s) to keep. If NULL (the default), all groups are kept.
...	Ignored.

Details

You can use the arguments parameters, responses and types to extract only a subset of the model parameters (i.e., only certain types of parameters related to a certain response variable).

See potential values for the types argument in as.data.frame.dynamitefit() and get_parameter_names() for potential values for parameters argument.

Value

A draws_df object.

A draws_df object.

as_draws(gaussian_example_fit, types = c("sigma", "beta"))

# Compute MCMC diagnostics using the posterior package
posterior::summarise_draws(as_draws(gaussian_example_fit))
