These simple objects of class bssm_prior
are used to construct a prior distributions for the
MCMC runs of bssm
package. Currently supported priors are uniform (uniform()
),
half-normal (halfnormal()
), normal (normal()
), and truncated normal distribution (tnormal()
).
uniform(init, min, max)halfnormal(init, sd)
normal(init, mean, sd)
tnormal(init, mean, sd, min = -Inf, max = Inf)
Initial value for the parameter, used in initializing the model components and as a starting value in MCMC.
Lower bound of the uniform and truncated normal prior.
Upper bound of the uniform and truncated normal prior.
Standard deviation of the (underlying i.e. non-truncated) Normal distribution.
Mean of the Normal prior.
