Define MCMC Control Settings — define_mcmc

Creates two sets of MCMC control objects for use with mcstate::pmcmc, one with a short run for adaptation, and one for the main run with full settings.

Usage

define_mcmc_control(
  control_params,
  adaptive_params,
  save_trajectories,
  rerun_n,
  rerun_random
)

Arguments

control_params: A list with MCMC control settings including n_steps, n_burnin, n_chains, n_workers, and n_threads_total.
adaptive_params: A list or object specifying the adaptive proposal settings (e.g., from mcstate::adaptive_proposal()).
save_trajectories: Logical; whether to save state trajectories from the MCMC run.
rerun_n: Integer; frequency of rerunning adaptive proposal fitting.
rerun_random: Logical; whether rerun intervals are randomized.

Value

A list with two elements:

control1: An initial short pmcmc_control object (e.g., for proposal adaptation).
control2: The full pmcmc_control object used for the main MCMC run.
