fmmax {dwp}

Find suitable mmax for clipping improper priors for M

Description

Improper priors need to be clipped in order to be usable. fmmax and fmmax.ab find values of m that are large enough that the probability of exceeding is less than 0.0001 (depends on g and X).

Usage

fmmax(x, g)

fmmax.ab(x, pBa, pBb)

Arguments

x

carcass count

g

overall carcass detection probability

pBa, pBb

parameters for beta distribution characterizing estimated g

Value

integer m such that Pr(M >= m) < 0.0001
