pvEBayes (version 0.2.1)

posterior_draws: Generate posterior draws for each AE-drug combination

Description

This function generates posterior draws from the posterior distribution of \(\lambda_{ij}\) for each AE-drug combination, based on a fitted empirical Bayes model. The posterior draws can be used to compute credible intervals, visualize posterior distributions, or support downstream inference.

Usage

posterior_draws(obj, n_posterior_draws = 1000)

Value

The function returns an S3 object of class pvEBayes with posterior draws.

Arguments

obj

a pvEBayes object, which is the output of the function pvEBayes or pvEBayes_tune.

n_posterior_draws

number of posterior draws for each AE-drug combination.

Examples

fit <- pvEBayes(
  contin_table = statin2025_44, model = "general-gamma",
  alpha = 0.3, n_posterior_draws = NULL
)

fit_with_draws <- posterior_draws(fit, n_posterior_draws = 1000)
