estimate.hyper: Estimate hyperparameters for model using empirical Bayes.

Description

Estimate hyperparameters for model using empirical Bayes.

Usage

estimate.hyper(dl, sigma.tau = 0.5, length.scale = NULL,
  model.name = "simplest-model")

Arguments

dl
de.lorean object
sigma.tau
Noise s.d. in temporal dimension, that is prior s.d. for tau
length.scale
Length scale for stationary GP covariance function. Defaults to the range of the observed capture times.
model.name
The model's name:
  • 'simplest-model': The simplest model (does not estimate the gene means).
  • 'simple-model': Like 'simplest-model' but estimates the gene means.
  • 'lowrank': Low rank approximation to the 'simplest-model'.
  • <
