Fit the SCCS model

fitSccsModel(
prior = createPrior("laplace", useCrossValidation = TRUE),
control = createControl(cvType = "auto", selectorType = "byPid", startingVariance =
0.1, noiseLevel = "quiet")
)

Arguments

sccsEraData An object of type sccsEraData as created using the createSccsEraData function. The prior used to fit the model. See createPrior for details. The control object used to control the cross-validation used to determine the hyperparameters of the prior (if applicable). See createControl for details.

Value

An object of type sccsModel. Generic functions summary, coef, and confint are available.

Details

Fits the SCCS model as a conditional Poisson regression. When allowed, coefficients for some or all covariates can be regularized.
