Create a control structure for running EM algorithms
1 | em.control(ctrl = NULL, ...)
|
nplot |
how often to plot wages of comparaison to model0 |
ncat |
how often to log information |
maxiter |
maximum number of iterations |
model_var |
whether to allow for flexible variance (default is TRUE) |
est_Amb |
TBD |
cstr_type |
defines the type of constraints on the means for estimation |
cstr_val |
TBD |
tol |
tolerance for stopping the EM |
tau |
posterior likelihood to use instead of computing them using initial parameters |
model0 |
model to compare estimation to when plotting |
presp=1e-9 |
TBD |
rel_weight |
setting a particular weight for stayers versus movers (default is 1) |
est_rho |
vector of TRUE/FALSE that states which rho should be estimated |
rho_in_diff |
whether to estimate rho in level of in differences |
dprior |
Dirichlet prior for proportions (default 1.01) |
nfirms_to_update=10, |
number firms to update in probabilistic approach |
proba_include |
what terms to include in the liklihood for probabilistic approach (default to = c(1,1,1,1)) |
check_lik |
whether to check the likelihood at each updating parameter |
stochastic |
whether to use stochastic EM instead of straight EM |
fixb |
when TRUE, imposes fixed interactions in different time periods |
fixm |
when TRUE, levels are not updated, only variances and proportions |
deps=1e-50 |
TBD |
file_backup_prefix |
TBD |
sd_floor= |
floor imposed on all standard deviations (default is 1e-10) |
posterior_reg |
term added to posterior probablities (this is to deal with numerical issues, default is 1e-9) |
textapp |
text to show in logging |
sdata_subsample |
share of the stayers to use in estimation |
sdata_subredraw |
whether to redraw the subsample of stayers |
vdec_sim_size |
size to use in simulation |
stayer_weight |
weight attributed to stayers in joint estimation |
est_rep= |
number of starting values for EM |
est_nbest |
number of best starting values to select from using connectedness |
