In pomp: Statistical Inference for Partially Observed Markov Processes

emeasure workhorse

Description

Return the expected value of the observed variables, given values of the latent states and the parameters.

Usage

## S4 method for signature 'pomp'
emeasure(
  object,
  ...,
  x = states(object),
  times = time(object),
  params = coef(object)
)

Arguments

object	an object of class ‘pomp’, or of a class that extends ‘pomp’. This will typically be the output of pomp, simulate, or one of the pomp inference algorithms.
...	additional arguments are ignored.
x	an array containing states of the unobserved process. The dimensions of x are nvars x nrep x ntimes, where nvars is the number of state variables, nrep is the number of replicates, and ntimes is the length of times. One can also pass x as a named numeric vector, which is equivalent to the nrep=1, ntimes=1 case.
times	a numeric vector (length ntimes) containing times. These must be in non-decreasing order.
params	a npar x nrep matrix of parameters. Each column is treated as an independent parameter set, in correspondence with the corresponding column of x.

Value

emeasure returns a rank-3 array of dimensions nobs x nrep x ntimes, where nobs is the number of observed variables.
