gibbscap1

This function implements a regular Gibbs sampler associated with Chapter 5 for a two-stage
capture recapture model with open populations, accounting for the possibility
that some individuals vanish between two successive capture experiments.

gibbs

capture-recapture

open population

Allows the reenactment of the R programs used in
the book Bayesian Essentials with R without further programming.
R code being available as well, they can be modified by the user
to conduct one's own simulations.
