| dPosteriorPredictive.GaussianNIW | R Documentation |
Generate the the density value of the posterior predictive distribution of the following structure:
mu,Sigma|m,k,v,S \sim NIW(m,k,v,S)
x|mu,Sigma \sim Gaussian(mu,Sigma)
Where NIW() is the Normal-Inverse-Wishart distribution, Gaussian() is the Gaussian distribution. See ?dNIW and dGaussian for the definitions of these distribution.
The model structure and prior parameters are stored in a "GaussianNIW" object.
Posterior predictive density is p(x|m,k,v,S).
## S3 method for class 'GaussianNIW' dPosteriorPredictive(obj, x, LOG = TRUE, ...)
obj |
A "GaussianNIW" object. |
x |
matrix, or the ones that can be converted to matrix, each row of x is an observation. |
LOG |
Return the log density if set to "TRUE". |
... |
Additional arguments to be passed to other inherited types. |
A numeric vector of the same length as nrow(x), the posterior predictive density.
