getPrior: Get a Prior for a posterior

In djgriffin13/isNet: Multi-Group Additive Multiplicitive Effects Models for Network Selection Processes

Get a Prior for a posterior

Description

This function the posterior distribution from an ame model and uses it to generate the prior for the next simulation.

Usage

getPrior(mdl, strong = F, strongFactor = 1e+06)

Arguments

mdl	output from ame models of class ame
strong	booliean value indicating weather to treat this as a stribg prior by reducing the variance in beta and increasing the degrees of freedom
strongFactor	value indicating the factor used to augment prior to make it a strong prior.
lastPrior	previous prior used for tracking degrees of freedom

Value

a list of hyperparamters used as a prior by the ame model
