ABC_P2_gamma {ABCp2} | R Documentation |
This function fits offspring data to a special case of the gamma distribution, in which zero values of offspring are excluded and all values are rounded to a whole number, and estimates P2 based on that distribution and the specificed priors.
ABC_P2_gamma(n, ObsMean, S_Lo, S_Hi, R_Lo, R_Hi, delta, iter)
n |
number of observations. |
ObsMean |
the observed mean number of offspring sired by the second male. |
S_Lo |
minimum shape value for the distribution. |
S_Hi |
maximum shape value for the distribution. |
R_Lo |
minimum rate value for the distribution. |
R_Hi |
maximum rate value for the distribution. |
delta |
maximum allowed difference between the estimated mean and observed mean number of offspring produced by the second male. |
iter |
number of iterations used to build the posterior. |
posterior |
Posterior distribution of P2 values. |
Shape |
Vector of values for the shape parameter. |
Rate |
Vector of values for the rate parameter. |
