genDelMat: Generate delta matrix

Description Usage Arguments Details Value See Also Examples

Description

This function will generate the matrix of deltas, as specified in the paper. See Details section.

Usage

1
genDelMat(theta.diff, sigma.2 = 1, n = 1)

Arguments

theta.diff

A vector of length p-1, where p is the number of populations of treatments. Coordinate [i] in theta.diff corresponds to θ_i - θ_{i+1}.

sigma.2

The known variance of the error terms.

n

The number of replications in each population.

Details

As specified in the paper, we can assume that the thetas are in a decreasing order, meaning that θ_1 ≥ θ_2, …, θ_n. It follows that all the components of the theta.diff vector must be positive. Note that the delta matrix in the paper is a scaled version of the differences between the thetas.

Value

The function returns a matrix with p rows and p columns, that contains the delta_{ij}'s, as described in the paper.
