Collect samples from chains that have been run with monty_sample_manual_prepare and monty_sample_manual_run. If any chain has not completed, we will error.

Usage

monty_sample_manual_collect(
  path,
  samples = NULL,
  restartable = FALSE,
  append = TRUE
)

Arguments

path

The path used in the call to monty_sample_manual_prepare

samples

Samples from the parent run. You need to provide these where save_samples was set to anything other than "value"

restartable

Logical, indicating if the chains should be restartable. This will add additional data to the chains object. Note that this is controlled at chain collection and not creation.

append

Logical, indicating if we should append the results of the resumed chain together with the original chain.

Value

A monty_samples object.

Examples


model <- monty_example("banana")
sampler <- monty_sampler_random_walk(vcv = diag(2) * 0.05)
path <- tempfile()
monty_sample_manual_prepare(model, sampler, 100, path)
monty_sample_manual_info(path)
