setup and run MCMC

Description

setup and run MCMC

Usage

setup_and_run_MCMC(
  starting_pars = NULL,
  starting_point_seed,
  filenames,
  run_parallel = TRUE,
  mvr = TRUE,
  mvr_init = NULL,
  specify_parameters,
  get_data,
  CREATE_POSTERIOR_FUNC,
  CREATE_PRIOR_FUNC,
  mcmcPars = gen_mcmcPars(),
  mcmc_seed = NULL,
  generate_start_values = function(x, y, z) generate_random_start(x, y)
)

Arguments

starting_pars	NULL for randomly generated start values, or n_replicates by n_temperatures list of vectors of length n_pars, where n_pars is the number of parameters, n_replicates is the number of parallel chains to run to assess convergence, and n_temperatures is the number of temperatures used for parallel tempering. If no parallel tempering, use an n_replicates list of vectors of length n_pars
starting_point_seed	list of n_replicates vectors, each of length n_temperatures, used for random number generator for generating starting point for each chain.
filenames	vector of n_replicates filenames in which to store results (without extension)
run_parallel	logical. Whether to run calculations in parallel
mvr	logical. if TRUE, use multivariate proposal, else use univariate proposal
mvr_init	list of parameters for multivariate proposal. if NULL, use defaults
specify_parameters	closure to specify parameters by generating the parTab data frame.
mcmcPars	list of tuning parameters for MCMC
mcmc_seed	list of length n_replicates, each element being an integer. Used to seed RNG for MCMC. if NULL, use default
generate_start_values	closure to generate starting parameter values if starting_pars = NULL
