normal.normal.mix: Computes the posterior for normal sampling and a mixture of...

In bayesball/LearnBayes: Learning Bayesian Inference

Description

Computes the parameters and mixing probabilities for a normal sampling problem, variance known, where the prior is a discrete mixture of normal densities.

Usage

normal.normal.mix(probs,normalpar,data)

Arguments

probs	vector of probabilities of the normal components of the prior
normalpar	matrix where each row contains the mean and variance parameters for a normal component of the prior
data	vector of observation and sampling variance

Value

probs	vector of probabilities of the normal components of the posterior
normalpar	matrix where each row contains the mean and variance parameters for a normal component of the posterior

Examples

probs=c(.5, .5)
normal.par1=c(0,1)
normal.par2=c(2,.5)
normalpar=rbind(normal.par1,normal.par2)
y=1; sigma2=.5
data=c(y,sigma2)
normal.normal.mix(probs,normalpar,data)
