plotdens: Plot kernel densities of single parameter nodes

In jagshelper: Extracting and Visualizing Output from 'jagsUI'

Plot kernel densities of single parameter nodes

Description

Produces a kernel density plot of a single or multiple parameter nodes (overlayed).

Input can be of multiple possible formats: either a single or list of output objects from jagsUI with an associated vector of parameter names, or a vector or data.frame of posterior samples.

Usage

plotdens(
  df,
  p = NULL,
  exact = FALSE,
  add = FALSE,
  col = NULL,
  shade = TRUE,
  lwd = 2,
  minCI = 0.99,
  legend = TRUE,
  legendpos = "topleft",
  legendnames = NULL,
  main = NULL,
  xlab = "",
  ylab = "Density",
  ...
)

Arguments

df	Input object for plotting. See examples below.
p	Vector of parameter names, if df is given as a single or list of output objects from jagsUI
exact	Whether the ⁠p=⁠ argument should match the parameter name exactly. See jags_df for details.
add	Whether to add to an existing plot (TRUE) or produce a new plot. Defaults to FALSE.
col	Vector of colors for plotting. If the default (NULL) is accepted, colors will be automatically selected.
shade	Whether to shade the regions below the kernel density curve(s). Defaults to TRUE.
lwd	Line width for kernel density curves. Defaults to 2. Note: setting this to 0 (or FALSE) will suppress lines.
minCI	Minimum CI width to include for all density curves. Defaults to 99%.
legend	Whether to plot a legend. Defaults to TRUE.
legendpos	Position for automatic legend. Defaults to "topleft".
legendnames	Names for legend
main	Plot title. Defaults to "".
xlab	X-axis label. Defaults to "".
ylab	Y-axis label. Defaults to "Density".
...	Optional plotting arguments

Value

## data.frame with multiple columns
plotdens(jags_df(asdf_jags_out, p="a"))

## list of jagsUI objects with a single parameter name
plotdens(list(asdf_jags_out,asdf_jags_out,asdf_jags_out), p="b1")

## list of jagsUI objects with a vector of parameter names
plotdens(list(asdf_jags_out,asdf_jags_out,asdf_jags_out), p=c("a[1]","a[2]","a[3]"))
