Reset a RandomEffectsModel object based on the parameters indexed by sample_num in a RandomEffectsSamples object

Reset a RandomEffectsModel object based on the parameters indexed by sample_num in a RandomEffectsSamples object

Usage

resetRandomEffectsModel(rfx_model, rfx_samples, sample_num, sigma_alpha_init)

Arguments

rfx_model

Object of type RandomEffectsModel.

rfx_samples

Object of type RandomEffectSamples.

sample_num

Index of sample stored in rfx_samples from which to reset the state of a random effects model. Zero-indexed, so resetting based on the first sample would require setting sample_num = 0.

sigma_alpha_init

Initial value of the "working parameter" scale parameter.
