NMixPredCondDensMarg: Univariate conditional predictive density

In mixAK: Multivariate Normal Mixture Models and Mixtures of Generalized Linear Mixed Models Including Model Based Clustering

Univariate conditional predictive density

Description

This function serves as an inference tool for the MCMC output obtained using the function NMixMCMC. It computes (posterior predictive) estimates of univariate conditional densities.

Usage

NMixPredCondDensMarg(x, ...)

## Default S3 method:
NMixPredCondDensMarg(x, icond, prob, scale, K, w, mu, Li, Krandom=FALSE, ...)

## S3 method for class 'NMixMCMC'
NMixPredCondDensMarg(x, icond, prob, grid, lgrid=50, scaled=FALSE, ...)

## S3 method for class 'GLMM_MCMC'
NMixPredCondDensMarg(x, icond, prob, grid, lgrid=50, scaled=FALSE, ...)

Arguments

x	an object of class NMixMCMC for NMixPredCondDensMarg.NMixMCMC function. An object of class GLMM_MCMC for NMixPredCondDensMarg.GLMM_MCMC function. A list with the grid values (see below) for NMixPredCondDensMarg.default function.
icond	index of the margin by which we want to condition
prob	a numeric vector. If given then also the posterior pointwise quantiles of the conditional densities are computed for probabilities given by prob. These can be used to draw pointwise credible intervals.
scale	a two component list giving the shift and the scale. If not given, shift is equal to zero and scale is equal to one.
K	either a number (when Krandom=FALSE) or a numeric vector with the chain for the number of mixture components.
w	a numeric vector with the chain for the mixture weights.
mu	a numeric vector with the chain for the mixture means.
Li	a numeric vector with the chain for the mixture inverse variances (lower triangles only).
Krandom	a logical value which indicates whether the number of mixture components changes from one iteration to another.
grid	a list with the grid values for each margin in which the density should be evaluated. The value of grid[[icond]] determines the values by which we condition. If grid is not specified, it is created automatically using the information from the posterior summary statistics stored in x.
lgrid	a length of the grid used to create the grid if that is not specified.
scaled	if TRUE, the density of shifted and scaled data is summarized. The shift and scale vector are taken from the scale component of the object x.
...	optional additional arguments.

Value

An object of class NMixPredCondDensMarg which has the following components:

x	a list with the grid values for each margin. The components of the list are named x1, ... or take names from grid argument.
icond	index of the margin by which we condition.
dens	a list with the computed conditional densities for each value of x[[icond]]. Each dens[[j]] is again a list with conditional densities for each margin given margin icond equal to x[[icond]][j]. The value of dens[[j]][[imargin]] gives a value of a marginal density of the imargin-th margin at x[[icond]][j].
prob	a value of the argument prob.
qXX%	if prob is given then there is one additional component named qXX%, e.g., q50% for each value of prob which has the same structure as the component dens and keeps computed posterior pointwise quantiles.

There is also a plot method implemented for the resulting object.
