get_priors: Build basic priors for gamma and tau

In rtlemos/scallops: Lemos and Sanso' (2012) model, edited for speed

Description

Build basic priors for gamma and tau

Usage

get_priors(dpc_grid, precision_diagonal_value = 1e-06,
  precision_nearest_neighbor_factor = 0)

Arguments

dpc_grid	Discrete Process Convolution grid
precision_diagonal_value	Diagonal value for gamma's prior precision matrix
precision_nearest_neighbor_factor	Off-diagonal factor for gamma's prior precision matrix, in (0,1)

Value

List with prior mean and precision for gamma, and prior shape and rate parameters for tau

Examples

dpc_grid = get_grid(c(0,1), c(1,2), 1)
priors = get_priors(dpc_grid, 5, 0.4)
priors$gamma$precision
(prior_variance = solve(priors$gamma$precision))
