roi_mle_control(grad_iterations = 2100, step_size_coef = 0.5,
  step_rate = 0.55, samp_per_iter = 20, grad_delay = NULL,
  assume_convergence = NULL, impute_boundary = c("smooth", "neighbors",
  "none", "mean"), mahal_weight = 0.2, RB_mult = 1)

Arguments

grad_iterations

the number of stochastic gradient steps to take

step_size_coef

step size coefficients for stochastic gradient step. Best left unchanged.

step_rate

the rate at which the stochastic gradient steps size should decrease as a function of the number of steps already taken.

samp_per_iter

the number of slice MH samples to take for computing the stochastic gradient estimate in each stochastic gradient step

grad_delay

the number of iterations to wait before starting to decrease the stochastic gradient step size

assume_convergence

after how many gradient steps should we assume convergence? The final MLE estimate will be the average of the last grad_iterations - assume_convergence estimates

impute_boundary

the boundary imputation method to use. See description for details

RB_mult

adjusts the Robins-Monroe step sizes when computing profile-likelihood confidence intervals.
