hyper.g {BAS}R Documentation

Hyper-g-Prior Distribution for Coefficients in BMA Models

Description

Creates an object representing the hyper-g mixture of g-priors on coefficients for BAS.

Usage

hyper.g(alpha = 3)

Arguments

alpha

a scalar > 0. The hyper.g(alpha) is equivalent to CCH(alpha -2, 2, 0). Liang et al recommended values in the range 2 < alpha_h <= 3

Details

Creates a structure used for bas.glm.

Value

returns an object of class "prior", with the family and hyerparameters.
