main {EDISON}

Main function of the MCMC simulation.

Description

This function executes the main loop of the MCMC simulation, making the different moves and recording samples.

Usage

main(X, Y, initiation, GLOBvar, HYPERvar)

Arguments

X

Input response data.

Y

Input target data.

initiation

Initialisation of the MCMC simulation, as obtained by function init.

GLOBvar

Global variables of the MCMC simulation.

HYPERvar

Hyperparameter variables.

Value

Returns a list with the following elements:

counters

List containing the different move counters for the number of times moves have been proposed and accepted.

listStock

List containing the recorded samples for the networks, changepoints and hyperparameters
