hibayes Thining parameter

Hello, Thanks for your excellent package! I wondered what the default thinning interval parameter in the software is. And how can we change this parameter? Does the package include all the samples to infer the posterior distribution features?

Thank you for trying hibayes. The parameter to control the thinning interval is "outfreq" in main function, the default setting is outfreq = niter %/% 1000, where niter is the total number of iteration.

Hei, my PhD student and I were just wondering whether the above answer was correct. What is the "thin" parameter doing if "outfreq" is thinning? Thank you.

Hi @stefaniemuff,

Thank you for trying hibayes package. In the latest version, i have added a new argument "thin" in the main function to control the collection step. And now the argument "outfreq" doesn't work for it anymore, it's only valid to control the print frequency on console.

Best, LL
