bayes_nlg: Bayesian method (Negative Log Gamma Prior)

In serieslcb: Lower Confidence Bounds for Binomial Series System

Description

Caclulate a binomal series lower confidence bound using Bayes' method with negative log gamma priors on the components, defined such that the prior on the system is a uniform distribution.

Usage

bayes_nlg(s, n, alpha, MonteCarlo, ...)

Arguments

s	Vector of successes.
n	Vector of sample sizes.
alpha	The significance level; to calculate a 100(1-α)% lower confidence bound.
MonteCarlo	Number of samples to draw from the posterior distribution for the Monte Carlo estimate.
...	Additional arguments to be ignored.

Value

The 100(1-α)% lower confidence bound.

Examples

bayes_nlg(s=c(35, 97, 59), n=c(35, 100, 60), alpha=.10, MonteCarlo=1000)
