spT.initials {spTimer}

Initial values for the spatio-temporal models.

Description

This command is useful to assign the initial values of the hyper-parameters of the prior distributions.

Usage

spT.initials(model, sig2eps=0.01, sig2eta=NULL, rho=NULL, beta=NULL, phi=NULL)

Arguments

model

The spatio-temporal models, current options are: "GP", "AR", and "GPP".

sig2eps

Initial value for the parameter \sigma^2_\epsilon.

sig2eta

Initial value for the parameter \sigma^2_\eta.

rho

Initial value for the parameter \rho.

beta

Initial value for the parameter \beta.

phi

Initial value for the parameter \phi.

Note

Initial values are automatically given if the user does not provide these.
