tCCH {BAS}

Generalized tCCH g-Prior Distribution for Coefficients in BMA Models

Description

Creates an object representing the tCCH mixture of g-priors on coefficients for BAS.

Usage

tCCH(alpha = 1, beta = 2, s = 0, r = 3/2, v = 1, theta = 1)

Arguments

alpha

a scalar > 0, recommended alpha=.5 (betaprime) or 1.

beta

a scalar > 0. The value is not updated by the data; beta should be a function of n for consistency under the null model.

s

a scalar, recommended s=0 a priori

r

r arbitrary; in the hyper-g-n prior sets r = (alpha + 2)

v

0 < v

theta

theta > 1

Details

Creates a structure used for bas.glm.

Value

returns an object of class "prior", with the family and hyerparameters.
