invert_bt.Rd
Use samplers from the BayesianTools package to fit models to data. Like
invert.auto
, this will continue to run until convergence is achieved
(based on Gelman diagnostic) and the result has enough samples (as
specified by the user; see Details).
invert_bt(observed, model, prior, custom_settings = list(), loglike = NULL)
observed | Vector of observations. Ignored if |
---|---|
model | Function called by log-likelihood. Must be |
prior | BayesianTools prior object. |
custom_settings | Nested settings list. See Details. |
loglike | Custom log likelihood function. If |
custom_settings
is a list of lists, containing the following:
common
-- BayesianTools settings common to both the initial and subsequent samples.
init
-- BayesianTools settings for just the first round of sampling.
This is most common for the initial number of iterations, which is the
minimum expected for convergence.
loop
-- BayesianTools settings for iterations inside the convergence
checking while
loop. This is most commonly for setting a smaller
iteration count than in init
.
other
-- Miscellaneous (non-BayesianTools) settings, including:
sampler
-- String describing which sampler to use. Default is DEzs
use_mpsrf
-- Use the multivariate PSRF to check convergence.
Default is FALSE
because it may be an excessively conservative
diagnostic.
min_samp
-- Minimum number of samples after burnin before stopping.
Default is 5000.
max_iter
-- Maximum total number of iterations. Default is 1e6.
lag.max
-- Maximum lag to use for autocorrelation normalization.
Default is 10 * log10(n)
(same as stats::acf
function).
save_progress
-- File name for saving samples between loop
iterations. If NULL
(default), do not save progress samples.
threshold
-- Threshold for Gelman PSRF convergence diagnostic. Default is 1.1.
verbose_loglike
-- Diagnostic messages in log likelihood output. Default is TRUE.

settings lists.
