R/mds.R
zshrink.Rd
This function is a wrapper for adaptive shrinkage (Stephens, 2017) on the Fisher-z transformed estimates of the Pearson correlation. This approach was proposed in Dey and Stephens (2018) but is re-implemented here for now since the CorShrink package is not available on CRAN.
zshrink(zmat, smat, ...)
The matrix of Fisher-z transformed correlation estimates.
The matrix of standard errors of the Fisher-z transformed correlation estimates.
Additional arguments to pass to ash()
.
A matrix of correlation estimates. These are posterior means of the correlation estimates after applying the CorShrink method (Dey and Stephens, 2018).
