Arguments

data

Data to fit. Must have columns "time", 'lab_site_index", "conc", and "cens".

exp_rate_conc_pop_prior_mean

Mean for the Normal prior on the population-wide exponential growth rate of wastewater viral genome concentrations.

exp_rate_conc_pop_prior_sd

Standard deviation for the Normal prior on the population-wide exponential growth rate of wastewater viral genome concentrations.

sd_exp_rate_conc_prior_mode

Mode for the positive-constrained Normal prior on the standard deviation of wastewater viral genome concentration exponential growth rates (which governs the variability in growth rate among lab-sites)

sd_exp_rate_conc_prior_sd

Standard deviation for the positive-constrained Normal prior on the standard deviation of wastewater viral genome concentration exponential growth rates (which governs the variability in growth rate among lab-sites)

t0_conc_pop_prior_mean

Mean for the Normal prior on the population-wide wastewater viral genome concentration at time t = 0.

t0_conc_pop_prior_sd

Standard deviation for the Normal prior on the population-wide wastewater viral genome concentration at time t = 0.

sd_t0_conc_prior_mode

Mode for the positive-constrained Normal prior on the standard deviation of wastewater viral genome concentrations at time t = 0 (which governs the variability in initial concentration among lab-sites).

sd_t0_conc_prior_sd

Standard deviation for the positive-constrained Normal prior on the standard deviation of wastewater viral genome concentrations at time t = 0 (which governs the variability in initial concentration among lab-sites).

log_sd_obs_pop_prior_mean

Mean for the log of the population-wide observation error standard deviation (observation errors are Normal).

log_sd_obs_pop_prior_sd

Standard deviation for the log of the population-wide observation error standard deviation (observation errors are Normal).

sd_log_sd_obs_prior_mode

Mode for the positive-constrained Normal prior on the standard deviation of log lab-site-specific observation error standard deviations (which governs the variability in observation error scale among lab-sites).

sd_log_sd_obs_prior_sd

Standard deviation for the positive-constrained Normal prior on the standard deviation observation error standard deviations (which governs the variability in observation error scale among lab-sites).

seed

Seed for cmdnstan's pseudorandom number generator.

control

list of control parameters passed to stan via brms::brm(). Default NULL.
