Creates an outcome with Multinomial distribution with the chosen parameters.
Usage
Multinom(p, data, offset = as.matrix(data)^0, base.class = NULL)
Arguments
- p
character: a vector with the name of the linear predictor associated with the probability of each category (except the base one, which is assumed to be the last).
- data
vector: Values of the observed data.
- offset
vector: The offset at each observation. Must have the same shape as data.
- base.class
character or integer: The name or index of the base class. Default is to use the last column of data.
Details
For evaluating the posterior parameters, we use the method proposed in Alves et al. (2024) .
For the details about the implementation see dos Santos et al. (2024) .
