CPG {CPGchron} | R Documentation |
This function will perform a run of the MCMC for the compound Poisson Gamma (CPG) model for radiocarbon dated
depth chronologies. It is best accessed through the CPGmenu
.
CPG(CALPATH, INFILE, OUTFILE, ndet, iterations, burnin, howmany, thinby)
CALPATH |
A character string detailing the location and name of the calibration curve file. Note that CPGchron uses a specific version of the Northern hemisphere Intcal calibration curve. Other calibration curves are not supported. |
INFILE |
A character string detailing the location and name of the determinations, as required by
CPGchron package. See CPGmenu for more details. |
OUTFILE |
A character string detailing the desired location and name of the output file. |
ndet |
The number of radiocarbon determinations for this core. |
iterations |
The number of iterations required for the MCMC. |
burnin |
The length of the MCMC burn-in. |
howmany |
How often you wish the program to report updates in iterations. |
thinby |
How much thinning should occur to the MCMC output. |
No output produced but the file specified in OUTFILE
is populated by parameter values.
