How do you get the posterior estimates from a stanfit object just as you would from a brmsfit object in R?

I am fairly new to R/STAN and I would like to code my own model in STAN code. The problem is that I don't know how to obtain the estimate__ values that conditional_effects(brmsfit) produces when using library(brms). Here is an example of what I…

Kfold CV in brms

I am trying to use kfold CV as a means of evaluating a model run using brms and I feel like I'm missing something. As a reproducible example, my data are structured as a binary response (0, 1) dependent on the length of an individual. Here is some…

mgcv::k.check equivalent for GAM in brms

I am doing HGAM with the brm function (brms package). For now, I kept the default k = 10, but I want to know if I should set k higher. I know that the function k.check in the mgcv package does that diagnostic, but I can't find any equivalent for…

How to follow-up on brms categorical model with emmeans to see whether there are group differences in choosing one particular category over another

I ran a brms model in R with a complex three-way interaction that I am trying to decompose. See below for code. I have a multinomial dependent variable with three levels (happy/angry/fear) and multiple categorical factors: group (three levels;…

How to infere intermediate values in Drools rules

I've been recommended to use Drools for score calculation. I'm new to this framework, but after a small research I see that it's indeed a good solution, because scoring rules are going to be updated/adjusted frequently and it's easy (it seems) to…
