Poisson Mixed Effects Model — vb_pois_mm • varapproxr

Perform mean-field variational inference for a Poisson mixed-effects regression model.

Usage

vb_pois_mm(
  X,
  Zlist,
  y,
  n,
  mu0,
  Sigma0,
  a0,
  tol = 1e-08,
  maxiter = 100L,

)

Arguments

X: The design matrix
Zlist: The random effect design matrices
y: The response vector
n: The offset term
mu0: The prior mean for beta
Sigma0: The prior covariance for beta
a0: Half-Cauchy scale hyper-parameter
tol: Tolerance for convergence of the elbo
maxiter: Maximum number of iterations allowed
verbose: Print trace of the lower bound to console. Default is FALSE.
