Description
The function can be used to perform variable selection for multivariate normal responses incorporating not only information on the mean model, but also information on the variance-covariance structure of the outcomes. A multivariate prior is specified on the latent binary selection indicators to incorporate the dependence between outcomes into the variable selection procedure.
Usage
1
Arguments
Y
a data.frame containing q continuous multivariate outcomes from n subjects. It is of dimension n\times q.
lin.pred
a list containing two formula objects: the first formula specifies the p covariates for which variable selection is to be performed; the second formula specifies the confounders to be adjusted for (but on which variable selection is not to be performed) in the regression analysis.
data
a data.frame containing the variables named in the formulas in lin.pred.
model
a character that specifies the covariance structure of the model: either "unstructured" or "factor-analytic".
hyperParams
a list containing lists or vectors for hyperparameter values in hierarchical models. Components include,
eta (a numeric value for the hyperparameter η that regulates the extent to which the correlation between response variables influences the prior of the variable selection indicator),
v (a numeric vector of length q for the standard deviation hyperparameter v of the regression parameter β prior),
omega (a numeric vector of length p for the hyperparameter ω in the prior of the variable selection indicator),
beta0 (a numeric vector of length q+1 for hyperparameter μ_0 and h_0 in the prior of the intercept β_0),
US (a list containing numeric vectors for hyperparameters in the unstructured model: US.Sigma),
FA (a list containing numeric vectors for hyperparameters in the factor-analytic model: lambda and sigmaSq).
See Examples below.
startValues
a numeric vector containing starting values for model parameters: c(beta0, B, gamma, Sigma) for the unstructured model; c(beta0, B, gamma, sigmaSq, lambda) for the factor-analytic model. See Examples below.
mcmcParams
a list containing variables required for MCMC sampling. Components include,
run (a list containing numeric values for setting the overall run:
numReps, total number of scans; thin, extent of thinning; burninPerc, the proportion of burn-in).
tuning (a list containing numeric values relevant to tuning parameters for specific updates in Metropolis-Hastings algorithm:
mhProp_beta_var, variance of the proposal density for B; mhrho_prop, degrees of freedom of the inverse-Wishart proposal density for Σ in the unstructured model;
mhPsi_prop, scale matrix of inverse-Wishart proposal density for Σ in the unstructured model;
mhProp_lambda_var, variance of the proposal density for λ in the factor-analytic model.
See Examples below.
Value
mvnBvs returns an object of class mvnBvs.
