simplex_constrain() [3/6]

template<typename T , require_std_vector_t< T > * = nullptr>

auto stan::math::simplex_constrain ( const T &  y )

inline

Return the simplex corresponding to the specified free vector.

This overload handles looping over the elements of a standard vector.

Template Parameters

Vec	A standard vector with inner type inheriting from Eigen::DenseBase or a var_value with inner type inheriting from Eigen::DenseBase with compile time dynamic rows and 1 column

Parameters

[in]

y

free vector

Returns

simplex of dimensionality one greater than y

A simplex is a vector containing values greater than or equal to 0 that sum to 1. A vector with (K-1) unconstrained values will produce a simplex of size K.

The transform is based on a centered stick-breaking process.

Template Parameters

T	Type of vector to constrain

Parameters

y	Free vector input of dimensionality K - 1

Returns

Simplex of dimensionality K
