find_beta_prior_mode: Find Beta distribution parameters with mode

In seroanalytics/serosolver: Inference Framework for Serological Data

Find Beta distribution parameters with mode

Description

Calculates the necessary parameters for the Beta distribution to give the desired mode and certainty, k

Usage

find_beta_prior_mode(mode1, k)

Arguments

mode1	the desired mode
k	the desired certainty in the prior, must be at least 2. The higher this number, the "stronger" the prior

Value

a list with shape1 and shape2 parameters for the Beta distribution
