Description

This data set contains a simulated data from the paper of Booth and Hobert referenced below.

Usage

data(booth)

Format

A list containing components:

y response matrix
x fixed effect model matrix
z random effect model matrix
i random effect index vector
mu0

simulation truth”

fixed effect parameter
sigma0

simulation truth”

random effect parameter
theta0

simulation truth”

parameter vector c(mu0, sigma0)
theta.hat.exact The maximum likelihood parameter vector calculated using the exact likelihood (calculated by numerical integration, not Monte Carlo)
info0 the expected Fisher information matrix for sample size one (one column of y) at the “

simulation truth”

parameter vector
bigw0 the expected “

big W”

matrix for sample size one at the “

simulation truth”

parameter vector
info.hat.exact the expected Fisher information matrix for sample size one (one column of y) at the theta.hat.exact parameter vector
bigw.hat.exact the expected “

big W”

matrix for sample size one at the theta.hat.exact parameter vector

The structure of these objects is described in the documentation for bnlogl and bnbigw.
