SBC_example_backend: Construct a backend to be used in the examples.

In hyunjimoon/SBC: Simulation Based Calibration for rstan/cmdstanr models

Construct a backend to be used in the examples.

Description

Note that this will involve compiling a Stan model and may take a while.

Usage

SBC_example_backend(
  example = c("normal_sd", "normal_bad"),
  interface = c("rstan", "cmdstanr", "rjags")
)

Arguments

example

name of the example model. normal_sd is a simple model fitting a normal distribution parametrized as mean and standard deviation. normal_bad is a model that tries to implement the normal_sd model, but assumes an incorrect parametrization of the normal distribution. For Stan-based backends, the model is written as if Stan parametrized normal distribution with precision (while Stan uses sd), for JAGS-based backends the model is written as if JAGS parametrized normal distribution with sd (while JAGS uses precision).

interface

name of the interface to be used to fit the model
