ABC_P2_norm {ABCp2} | R Documentation |
This function fits offspring data to a special case of the normal distribution, in which zero and negative values of offspring are excluded, and estimates P2 based on that distribution and the specificed priors.
ABC_P2_norm(n, ObsMean, M_Lo, M_Hi, SD_Lo, SD_Hi, delta, iter)
n |
number of observations. |
ObsMean |
the observed mean number of offspring sired by the second male. |
M_Lo |
minimum mean value for the distribution. |
M_Hi |
maximum mean value for the distribution. |
SD_Lo |
minimum standard deviation value for the distribution. |
SD_Hi |
maximum standard deviation 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. |
Avg |
Vector of values for the mean parameter. |
Std |
Vector of values for the standard deviation parameter. |
