Elicit the informative prior

Converts a bgm_parameters object into the elicited prior in the form that the family's samplers and estimators expect. The elicitation strategy depends on the class of params. See the method pages listed under Details.

Usage

elicit_prior(params, ...)

Arguments

params

A bgm_parameters object.

...

Family-specific arguments.

Value

A bgm_elicited object describing the elicited prior. It also carries a family-specific class (for example ggm_elicited), on which the downstream methods dispatch.

Details

Methods are available for the following classes:

ggm_parameters

Gaussian graphical models
