apollo_makeCluster {apollo} | R Documentation |
Creates cluster for estimation.
Description
Splits data, creates cluster and loads different pieces of the database on each worker.
Usage
apollo_makeCluster(
apollo_probabilities,
apollo_inputs,
silent = FALSE,
cleanMemory = FALSE
)
Arguments
apollo_probabilities |
Function. Returns probabilities of the model to be estimated. Must receive three arguments:
|
apollo_inputs |
List grouping most common inputs. Created by function apollo_validateInputs. |
silent |
Boolean. If TRUE, no messages are printed to the terminal. FALSE by default. It overrides |
cleanMemory |
Boolean. If TRUE, it saves apollo_inputs to disc, and removes database and draws from the apollo_inputs in .GlobalEnv and the parent environment. |
Details
Internal use only. Called by apollo_estimate
before estimation. Using multiple cores greatly increases memory consumption.
