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 = "exact", adjust.cell.sizes = TRUE)

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:
  • 'exact': The model without a low rank approximation that does not estimate the cell sizes.
  • 'exact-sizes': The model without a low rank approximation that does estimate the cell sizes.
  • 'lowrank': Low rank a
adjust.cell.sizes
Adjust by the cell sizes for better estimates of the hyperparameters
