Create a new parameter set within an rmaverick project. The new parameter set becomes the active set once created.
new_set( project, name = "(no name)", lambda = 1, admix_on = FALSE, alpha = 0.1, estimate_alpha = TRUE )
| project | an rmaverick project, as produced by the function
|
|---|---|
| name | the name of the parameter set |
| lambda | shape parameter of the dirichlet prior on allele frequencies in each subpopulation |
| admix_on | whether to allow admixture between subpopulations, in which case each gene copy can be assigned to a different subpopulation |
| alpha | parameter governing the strength of admixture. Higher values give greater probability of a gene copy being assigned to different subpopulations, while as alpha tends to zero we converge back at the no-admixture model in which all gene copies within an individual are constrained to have originated from the same subpopulation |
| estimate_alpha | whether the value of alpha should be estimated as part
of the MCMC, in which case the value |
