Generate data for brms models to be passed to Stan
make_standata(formula, data, family = gaussian(), prior = NULL,
autocor = NULL, nonlinear = NULL, cov_ranef = NULL,
sample_prior = c("no", "yes", "only"), knots = NULL, control = list(),
...)An object of class
formula or
brmsformula
(or one that can be coerced to that classes):
A symbolic description of the model to be fitted.
The details of model specification are explained in
brmsformula.
An object of class data.frame
(or one that can be coerced to that class)
containing data of all variables used in the model.
A description of the response distribution and link function
to be used in the model. This can be a family function,
a call to a family function or a character string naming the family.
Every family function has a link argument allowing to specify
the link function to be applied on the response variable.
If not specified, default links are used.
For details of supported families see
brmsfamily.
By default, a linear gaussian model is applied.
(Deprecated) An optional list of formulas, specifying
linear models for non-linear parameters. If NULL (the default)
formula is treated as an ordinary formula.
If not NULL, formula is treated as a non-linear model
and nonlinear should contain a formula for each non-linear
parameter, which has the parameter on the left hand side and its
linear predictor on the right hand side.
Alternatively, it can be a single formula with all non-linear
parameters on the left hand side (separated by a +) and a
common linear predictor on the right hand side.
As of brms 1.4.0, we recommend specifying non-linear
parameters directly within formula.
A list of matrices that are proportional to the
(within) covariance structure of the group-level effects.
The names of the matrices should correspond to columns
in data that are used as grouping factors.
All levels of the grouping factor should appear as rownames
of the corresponding matrix. This argument can be used,
among others to model pedigrees and phylogenetic effects.
See vignette("brms_phylogenetics") for more details.
Indicate if samples from all specified
proper priors should be drawn additionally to the posterior samples
(defaults to "no"). Among others, these samples can be used
to calculate Bayes factors for point hypotheses.
If set to "only", samples are drawn solely from
the priors ignoring the likelihood. In this case,
all parameters must have proper priors.
Optional list containing user specified knot values to be
used for basis construction of smoothing terms.
See gamm for more details.

A named list of objects containing the required data to fit a brms model with Stan.
