Generate values for latent Z at observed ordinal entires

Description

Each observed ordinal entry of Z follows truncated normal distribution with mean 0, variance 1 and truncated interval provided in lower and upper. Fill out those entries by their univariate mean if method = "univariate_mean" and by random sampples if method = "sampling"

Usage

initZ_interval_truncated(Lower, Upper, seed = NULL, method = "univariate_mean")

Arguments

Lower

Lower boundary of truncated intervals

Upper

Upper boundary of truncated intervals

seed

random seed used

method
