md_bayes_draw: MD Bayes Draw

Description

Tunes and estimates MD Bayes algorithm (ei.MD.bayes)

Usage

md_bayes_draw(
  dat,
  race_vote_split,
  form,
  ntunes = 10,
  totaldraws = 1e+05,
  seed = 12345,
  sample = 1e+05,
  thin = 100,
  burnin = 1e+05,
  ret.mcmc = TRUE
)

Value

Matrix object, of simulation reults

Arguments

dat

data.frame() object of just raw candidate vote and raw population counts. Put vote results in first set of columns, put population counts next

race_vote_split

Numeric vector of length 2 indicating where vote column ends (e.g., 3), and population counts begin (e.g., 4): c(3,4)

form

Formula object, e.g.: cbind(V1, V2, novote) ~ cbind(VtdAVap_cor, VtdBVap_cor, VtdHVap_cor, VtdOVap_cor)

ntunes

Numeric; how much to tune tuneMD. Default = 10

totaldraws

Numeric; How many total draws from MD. Default = 100000

seed

Numeric. Default = 12345

sample

Numeric. Default = 100000

thin

Numeric. Default = 10

burnin

Numeric. Default = 100000

ret.mcmc

Logical. Default = TRUE
