LRage: Likelihood ratio for age variable

In mispitools: Missing Person Identification Tools

Likelihood ratio for age variable

Description

Likelihood ratio for age variable

Usage

LRage(
  MPa = 40,
  MPr = 6,
  UHRr = 1,
  gam = 0.07,
  nsims = 1000,
  epa = 0.05,
  erRa = epa,
  H = 1,
  modelA = c("uniform", "custom")[1],
  LR = FALSE,
  seed = 1234
)

Arguments

MPa	Missing person age
MPr	Missing person age range.
UHRr	Unidentified person range
gam	Simulation parameter for UHR ages.
nsims	number of simulations.
epa	epsilon age
erRa	error rate in the database.
H	hipothesis tested, H1: UHR is MP, H2: UHR is not MP.
modelA	reference database probabilities, uniform assumes equally probable ages. Custom needs a vector with ages frequencies.
LR	compute LR values
seed	For reproducible simulations

Value

A value of Likelihood ratio based on preliminary investigation data. In this case, Age.
