getNoiseOffsetVariance function

getNoiseOffsetVariance

Method of Parameter class (access via parameter$, where parameter is an object initialized by initializeParameterObject). Calculate variance of noise offset parameter used when fitting model with empirical estimates of synthesis rates (ie. withPhi fits)

Arguments

• index: mixture index to use. Should be number between 0 and n-1, where n is number of mixtures
• samples: number of samples over which to calculate variance
• unbiased: If TRUE, should calculate variance using unbiased (N-1). Otherwise, used biased (N) correction

Returns

returns variance for noise offset
