Validates the options controlling the running of the code apollo_control
and sets default values for the omitted ones.
apollo_validateControl(database, apollo_control, silent = FALSE)
data.frame. Data used by model.
List. Options controlling the running of the code.
modelName
: Character. Name of the model. Used when saving the output to files.
modelDescr
: Character. Description of the model. Used in output files.
indivID
: Character. Name of column in the database with each decision maker's ID.
mixing
: Boolean. TRUE for models that include random parameters.
nCores
: Numeric>0. Number of cores to use in calculations of the model likelihood.
seed
: Numeric. Seed for random number generation.
HB
: Boolean. TRUE if using RSGHB for Bayesian estimation of model.
noValidation
: Boolean. TRUE if user does not wish model input to be validated before estimation - FALSE by default.
noDiagnostics
: Boolean. TRUE if user does not wish model diagnostics to be printed - FALSE by default.
outputDirectory
: Character. Optional directory for outputs if different from working director - empty by default
weights
: Character. Name of column in database containing weights for estimation.
workInLogs
: Boolean. TRUE for increased numeric precision in models with panel data - FALSE by default.
panelData
: Boolean. TRUE if there are multiple obsrvations (i.e. rows) for each decision maker - Automatically set based on indivID
by default.
calculateLLC
: Boolean. TRUE if user wants to calculate LL at constants (if applicable). - TRUE by default.
Boolean. If TRUE, no messages are printed to screen.
Validated version of apollo_control, with additional element called panelData set to TRUE for repeated choice data.
This function should be run before running apollo_validateData
