In revdbayes: Ratio-of-Uniforms Sampling for Bayesian Extreme Value Analysis

Maximal data information (MDI) prior for GEV parameters (\mu, \sigma, \xi)

Description

For information about this and other priors see set_prior.

Usage

gev_mdi(pars, a = 0.577215664901532, min_xi = -1, max_xi = Inf, trendsd = 0)

Arguments

pars	A numeric vector of length 3. GEV parameters (\mu, \sigma, \xi).
a	A numeric scalar. The default value, Euler's constant, gives the MDI prior.
min_xi	A numeric scalar. Prior lower bound on \xi. Must not be -Inf because this results in an improper posterior.
max_xi	A numeric scalar. Prior upper bound on \xi.
trendsd	Has no function other than to achieve compatibility with function in the evdbayes package.

Value

The log of the prior density.
