Gibbs_update_obs_error_param: Simulate observation error (independent) parameter.

In a-parton/CTStepTurn: Fitting the continuous-time step-and-turn movement model

Description

Gibbs_update_obs_error_param returns a conditional Gibbs sample of the observation error parameter when the errors are assumed independent.

Usage

Gibbs_update_obs_error_param(error_prec_prior, refined_path, obs)

Arguments

error_prec_prior	List with components: rate Numeric with prior rate of the error precision (not variance). shape Numeric with prior shape of the error precision (not variance).
refined_path	List with components: X Vector of the refined x locations on the path. Y Vector of refined y locations on the path.
obs	List with componenets: x Observed x locations. y Observed y locations. index_on_refined_path Index values on the refined path where observations occur.

Value

Numeric, sampled error variance.
