draw_chains: Draw a single chain.

In bjb40/apcwin: Age-Period-Cohort Estimators

Description

Draw a single chain.

Usage

draw_chains(formula, data, windowvars = c("a", "p", "c"), cores = 1,
  method = "ml", chains = 1, samples = 10, draws = 1000,
  startvals = NULL)

Arguments

formula	A formula object.
data	A dataframe.
windowvars	A character vector naming the age, period, and cohort variables (defaults to 'a', 'p', and 'c'). This can also be used to calculate breaks for other sorts of variables.
cores	Integer indicating cores to use.
method	One of "gibbs" or "ml". For a fully bayesian estimator for a faster approximation.
samples	Integer indicating samples; used only for "gibbs" method.
draws	Integer indicating the number of models to sample in the chain.
startvals	Optional list for chain starting values.

Value

An object of apcsamp.

Examples

data(apcsamp)
draw_chains(apcsamp,method='ml',samples=250,cores=4,chains=4)
