example_par_tab: Example parameter table

In seroanalytics/serosolver: Inference Framework for Serological Data

Example parameter table

Description

Example of the parameter table used through serosolver. This data frame is used to control everything related to the model parameters, including values, names, fixed/estimates, and uniform prior bounds.

Usage

data(example_par_tab)

Format

A data frame with 21 rows and 8 variables:

names

string names of the model parameters

values

numeric values of the parameters

fixed

binary values indicating if the parameter should be fixed (1) or estimated (0) during the MCMC procedure

lower_bound

lower numeric bound for the parameter during fitting (lower uniform prior bound)

upper_bound

upper numeric bound for the parameter during fitting (upper uniform prior bound)

lower_start

can be used to set the lower allowable random starting value for the MCMC

upper_start

can be used to set the upper allowable random starting value for the MCMC

par_type

used for bookeeping during MCMC, set to 1 for normal model parameters, 0 for model options, 2 for attack rate terms, phi or 3 for measurement offset terms, rho

biomarker_group

gives the biomarker group each parameter corresponds to, matching entries in the antibody_data object
