In bayesball/LearnBayes: Learning Bayesian Inference

Description

Computes the parameters and mixing probabilities for a binomial sampling problem where the prior is a discrete mixture of beta densities.

Usage

binomial.beta.mix(probs,betapar,data)

Arguments

probs	vector of probabilities of the beta components of the prior
betapar	matrix where each row contains the shape parameters for a beta component of the prior
data	vector of number of successes and number of failures

Value

probs	vector of probabilities of the beta components of the posterior
betapar	matrix where each row contains the shape parameters for a beta component of the posterior

Examples

probs=c(.5, .5)
beta.par1=c(15,5)
beta.par2=c(10,10)
betapar=rbind(beta.par1,beta.par2)
data=c(20,15)
