Maltiel et al (2015) Barrier Effects Model

maltiel_bem.Rd

Bayesian model for ARD including parameters capturing barrier effects.

  • maltiel_bem_count -- model for count responses

  • maltiel_bem_dichotomous -- model for dichotmous responses proposed by Baum & Marsden (2023).

  • maltiel_bem_trichotomous -- model for trichotomous responses proposed by Baum & Marsden (2023).

Usage

maltiel_bem_count(N, K, y, m, L, ...)

maltiel_bem_dichotomous(N, K, y, m, L, ...)

maltiel_bem_trichotomous(N, K, y, m, L, ...)

Arguments

N

integer; population size

K

integer; number of sub-populations

y

integer matrix; ARD

m

numeric; vector of fractional sizes of sub-populations

L

numeric; lower bound on degree

...

other arguments passed to cmdstanr::sample()

Value

Object of class cmdstanr::CmdStanMCMC containing the samples.

Details

Calling this function(s) will load the model object using get_model() and sample from the posterior using the cmdstanr::sample() method.
