pdarroch: Posterior probabilities for the Darroch model

Description

This function computes the posterior expectation of the population size for a two-stage Darroch capture-recapture experiment (Chapter 5) under a uniform prior on the range (0,400).

Usage

pdarroch(n1, n2, m2)

Arguments

n1
size of the first capture experiment
n2
size of the second capture experiment
m2
number of recaptured individuals

Value

  • numerical value of the posterior expectation

Details

This model can be seen as a conditional version of the two-stage model when conditioning on both sample sizes $n_1$ and $n_2$.
