rbeta_ab_rep_fc function

Gibbs sampling of additive row and column effects and regression coefficient with independent replicate relational data

Simulates from the joint full conditional distribution of (a,b,beta), assuming same additive row and column effects and regression coefficient across replicates.

rbeta_ab_rep_fc(Z.T,Sab,rho,X.T,s2=1)

Arguments

• Z.T: n x n x T array, with the third dimension for replicates. Each slice of the array is a (latent) normal relational matrix, with multiplicative effects subtracted out
• Sab: row and column covariance
• rho: dyadic correlation
• X.T: n x n x p x T covariate array
• s2: dyadic variance

Returns

• beta: regression coefficients - a: additive row effects

• b: additive column effects
