In barryrowlingson/PrevMap: Geostatistical Modelling of Spatially Referenced Prevalence Data

Description

This function defines the options for the MCMC algorithm used in the Monte Carlo maximum likelihood method.

Usage

control.mcmc.MCML(n.sim, burnin, thin = 1, h, c1.h = 0.01, c2.h = 1e-04)

Arguments

n.sim	number of simulations.
burnin	length of the burn-in period.
thin	only every thin iterations, a sample is stored; default is thin=1.
h	tuning parameter of the proposal distribution; default is h=0.05.
c1.h	value of c_{1} used in the adaptive scheme for h; default is c1.h=0.01. See also 'Details' in binomial.logistic.MCML
c2.h	value of c_{2} used in the adaptive scheme for h; default is c1.h=0.01. See also 'Details' in binomial.logistic.MCML

Value

A list with processed arguments to be passed to the main function.
