update_tau_R.Rd
update_tau_R
updates the precision parameter tau
update_tau_R(r, tau, sd_y, max_iter = 100, tol = 1e-10)
r | Residual vector |
---|---|
tau | Current estimate for tau |
sd_y | Standard deviation of y |
max_iter | Maximum number of iterations |
tol | Relative tolerance |
Returns a list object containing the new estimate for tau (scalar) and the number of iterations (scalar) the update step utilized
