output {EDISON}

Collects and saves output.

Description

This function collects the network, changepoint and hyperparameter samples taken from the MCMC simulation, and saves them to a file if appropriate.

Usage

output(counters, listStock, GLOBvar, HYPERvar, OUTvar)

Arguments

counters

List of counters for the number of moves that have been proposed and accepted.

listStock

Network, changepoint and hyperparameter samples.

GLOBvar

Global variables of the MCMC simulation.

HYPERvar

Hyperparameter variables.

OUTvar

Output variables, including the output file.

Value

Returns a list with an element for each target node which is also a list. Each sublist containts the elements:

cp_samples

Changepoint samples, a NumSamples by MaxNumChangePoints matrix.

edge_samples

Network samples (with regression parameters), a NumSamples by (NumSegs * NumNodes) matrix.

target

The target node for this subnetwork.

hyper_samples

Information sharing prior hyperparameter samples, a NumSamples by NumHyperParams matrix.

sampled

Sampled iterations.

counters

Counters for the number of proposed and accepted moves.
