Function to check the list of type-specific arguments
Usage
params_check(
params,
fixed_variance = FALSE,
covariance_type = "diagonal",
cluster_specific_covariance = TRUE,
variance_prior_type = c("IW", "decomposed", "sparse", "off-diagonal normal")
)Arguments
- params
the list of required parameters
- fixed_variance
whether covariance is assumed fixed or not; can be TRUE or FALSE
- covariance_type
structure of covariance matrix; can be "diagonal" or "full"
- cluster_specific_covariance
whether covariance matrix is cluster specific or not; can be TRUE or FALSE
- variance_prior_type
prior distribution for the covariance matrix; can be "IW" or "decomposed" when cluster_specific_covariance = FALSE, or can be "IW", "sparse" or "off-diagonal normal" otherwise
