gsPLMIX_to_mcmc function

MCMC class objects from the Gibbs sampling simulations of a Bayesian mixture of Plackett-Luce models

Coerce the Gibbs sampling simulations for a Bayesian mixture of Plackett-Luce models into an mcmc class object.

gsPLMIX_to_mcmc(gsPLMIX_out)

Arguments

• gsPLMIX_out: Object of class gsPLMIX returned by the gibbsPLMIX function.

Returns

An mcmc class object.

Details

gsPLMIX_to_mcmc attemps to coerce its argument by recalling the as.mcmc function of the coda package.

Examples

data(d_carconf)
GIBBS <- gibbsPLMIX(pi_inv=d_carconf, K=ncol(d_carconf), G=3, n_iter=30, n_burn=10)

## Coerce the posterior samples into an mcmc class object
gsPLMIX_to_mcmc(GIBBS)
