A density of a single variable.

Usage

plot_density(
  output,
  parameter,
  dimension = 1,
  target = NULL,
  external_target = NULL,
  use_initial_points = TRUE,
  use_weights = TRUE,
  mcmc = FALSE,
  xlimits = NULL,
  ylimits = NULL,
  default_title = FALSE
)

Arguments

output

Output from the SMC or EnK algorithm.

parameter

The parameter for which we wish to view the density.

dimension

(optional) The dimension of the parameter for which we wish to view the density. (default is 1)

target

(optional) The index of the target for which we wish to view the density. (default to all targets)

external_target

(optional) The index of the external target to plot. (default is to use all external targets, or to ignore if the column is not present)

use_initial_points

(optional) If target is not specified and this argument is TRUE, will add the initial unweighted proposed points to the output to be plotted. (default is TRUE)

use_weights

(optional) If FALSE, will ignore particle weights in the density. If TRUE, will use the particle weights. (defaults to TRUE)

mcmc

(optional) If TRUE, the user is indicating that the output is from an MCMC algorithm. This will set use_initial_points=FALSE and use_weights=FALSE no matter what the user sets these arguments to. (default is FALSE)

xlimits

(optional) Input of the form c(start,end), which specifies the ends of the x-axis.

ylimits

(optional) Input of the form c(start,end), which specifies the ends of the y-axis.

default_title

(optional) If TRUE, will provide a default title for the figure. If FALSE, no title is used. (defaults to FALSE)

Value

A density in a ggplot figure.
