Description

Numerical summaries are created for each model including the posterior mean and upper and lower credible intervals (aka uncertainty intervals).

Usage

## S3 method for class 'posterior'
summary(object, prob = 0.9, seed = sample.int(10000, 1), ...)

Arguments

object	An object produced by tidy.perf_mod().
prob	A number p (0 < p < 1) indicating the desired probability mass to include in the intervals.
seed	A single integer for sampling from the posterior.
...	Not currently used

Value

A data frame with summary statistics and a row for each model.

Examples

data("ex_objects")

summary(posterior_samples)
