prior
public double prior(double[] optParams)
Returns the prior probability of the specified list of
optimization parameters.
By default, all the combinations of parameter settings are
equally likely.
Note that normalization constants are not required in the prior
distributions, because it is only ratios of prior probabilities
of different parameter values that are important. Thus for
uniform priors, for example, values can be one if in range and
zero if outside regardless of the size of the range.
- Parameters:
array
- of optimized parameters
- Returns:
- prior probability of parameters.
