normal function

Constructor function for Normal priors

Used to specify Normal priors for bayesGAM models

normal(param_values)

Arguments

• param_values: Numeric vector of length 2 for the mean and standard deviation parameters

Details

For the beta and a parameters, the distribution is assumed to be unconstrained. For eps and lambda, the priors are half-normal with a support of strictly positive numbers.

Examples

require(stats); require(graphics)
normal(c(0, 10))
