marginal.d: Marginal predictive density

Description

It calculates the marginal density (Lewis and Raftery, 1997) from the DIFM sample using R.

Usage

marginal.d(
  data,
  model.attributes,
  hyp.parm,
  Gibbs,
  burnin = NA,
  verbose = TRUE
)

Value

Metropolis-Laplace estimator of the Marginal density

Arguments

data

The dataset

model.attributes

Model attributes generated from difm.model.attributes.

hyp.parm

Hyperparameters generated from difm.hyp.parm.

Gibbs

Result of Gibbs sampler from DIFM function.

burnin

Burn-in period. If not specified, one tenths of the iterations will be the burn-in period.

verbose
