In hunansona/ed4bhm: Empirical Determinacy for Bayesian Hierarchical Models

Extraction of descriptive statistics from a Stan object

Description

This function takes a Stan object and extracts the descriptive statistics (mean and standard deviation) of the model parameters

Usage

extract_descriptives_stan(stan.object.base.modified, w, prec.name = NULL)

Arguments

stan.object.base.modified	A Stan object in matrix form with a column called ll, which contains the log-likelihood evaluated at MCMC sample of parameters
w	numeric, the weighting factor to weight the likelihood. For the base model w=1.
prec.name	NULL or character, specifies the names of parameters (in JAGS and INLA precisions but in Stan standard deviations) for transformation to the log-scale

Value

A descriptive matrix with two columns (mean and sd) and rows for all the parameters of the model
