combineBUGSFits: Combine BUGS fits

In aquaMetrics/fcs2: Fisheries Classification Scheme 2 For SNIFFER

Description

Combines multiple BUGS fits to the same model into a single fit object. This may be useful for combining multiple MCMC chains that were split between computers to reduce computational time. thinBUGSSamples is used when necessary with a warning to thin samples so that the number per chain is consistent across fits.

Usage

combineBUGSFits(fit1, ...)

Arguments

fit1	an "fcs2Fit" object containing a full FCS2 model fit, as returned from fcs2FitModel with runBUGS = TRUE.
...	further "fcs2Fit" objects, each resulting from a full FCS2 model fit with the same model and data but perhaps different initial values or random seed. The modified "fcs2Fit" object fit containing the combined sample.
