Extract weights from draws objects, with one weight per draw. See weight_draws for details how to add weights to draws objects.

# S3 method for draws
weights(object, log = FALSE, normalize = TRUE, ...)

Arguments

object

(draws) A draws object.

log

(logical) Should the weights be returned on the log scale? Defaults to FALSE.

normalize

(logical) Should the weights be normalized to sum to 1 on the standard scale? Defaults to TRUE.

...

Arguments passed to individual methods (if applicable).

Value

A vector of weights, with one weight per draw.
