Extract parameters for 'JAGS' priors

Extracts transformed parameters from the prior part of a 'JAGS' model inside of a 'bridgesampling' function (returns them as a named list)

JAGS_marglik_parameters(samples, prior_list)

JAGS_marglik_parameters_formula(
  samples,
  formula_data_list,
  formula_prior_list,
  prior_list_parameters
)

Arguments

samples

samples provided by bridgesampling function

prior_list

named list of prior distribution (names correspond to the parameter names) of parameters not specified within the formula_list

formula_data_list

named list of data frames containing data for each formula (names of the lists correspond to the parameter name created by each of the formula)

formula_prior_list

named list of named lists of prior distributions (names of the lists correspond to the parameter name created by each of the formula and the names of the prior distribution correspond to the parameter names) of parameters specified within the formula

prior_list_parameters

named list of prior distributions on model parameters (not specified within the formula but that might scale the formula parameters)

Value

JAGS_marglik_parameters returns a named list of (transformed) posterior samples.
