De-Burn
Description
The deburn
function discards or removes a user-specified number
of burn-in iterations from an object of class demonoid
.
Usage
deburn(x, BurnIn=0)
Arguments
x |
This is an object of class |
BurnIn |
This argument defaults to |
Details
Documentation for the burnin
function provides an
introduction to the concept of burn-in as it relates to Markov chains.
The deburn
function discards a number of the first posterior
samples, as specified by the BurnIn
argument. Stationarity is
not checked, because it is assumed the user has a reason for using the
deburn
function, rather than using the results from the object
of class demonoid
. Therefore, the posterior samples in
Posterior1
and Posterior2
are identical, as are
Summary1
and Summary2
.
Value
The deburn
function returns an object of class demonoid
.
