writeModelSplines: Write a JAGS model to fit penalized splines regression

In MJAlexander/distortr: Temporal smoothing methods for demographic time series

Description

Write a JAGS model to fit first- and second-order penalized splines regression

Usage

writeModelSplines(order = NULL, cs.smoothing = T, nserror.estimated = T,
  file.name = "model.txt")

Arguments

order	order of penalization (either 1 or 2).
cs.smoothing	whether smoothing paramter is country specific. If 'FALSE', smoothing parameter is global.
nserror.estimated	whether to estimate non-sampling error. IF 'FALSE', fixed sampling error is inputted.
file.name	name of file to be saved. Must be a '.txt' file

Value

A text file that contains a JAGS model

Examples

order <- 1
cs.smoothing <- TRUE
nserror.estimated <- TRUE
writeModelSplines(order = order, nserror.estimated = nserror.estimated, cs.smoothing = cs.smoothing)
