This function extracts and optionally prints the maximum values of the log-likelihood and log-posterior from the results of an MCMC run. It is useful for quickly evaluating the fit of a model.

Usage

max_ll_post(results, print_ll = TRUE)

Arguments

results

A list containing the MCMC results from an inference run, including the coda_pars matrix with columns for log_likelihood and log_posterior.

print_ll

Boolean. If TRUE, the maximum log-likelihood and log-posterior values will be printed to the console (default: TRUE).

Value

A list with two named elements:

max_log_likelihood

The maximum value of the log-likelihood.

max_log_posterior

The maximum value of the log-posterior.
