fill_transition returns the expected value of the transition
matrix combining observed transitions for one time step and a prior
fill_transitions(TF, N, P = NULL, priorweight = -1, returnType = "T")
| TF | A list of two matrices, T and F, as ouput by |
|---|---|
| N | A vector of observed transitions. |
| P | A matrix of the priors for each column. Defaults to uniform. |
| priorweight | total weight for each column of prior as a percentage of sample size or 1 if negative |
| returnType | A character vector describing the desired return value. Defaults to "T" the transition matrix. |
The return value depends on parameter returnType.
A - the summed matrix "filled in" using a dirichlet prior
T - just the filled in transition matrix
TN - the augmented matrix of fates -- use in calculating the CI or for simulation
