We assessed convergence of chains using the Gelman and Heidelberg diagnostics using the gelman.diag and heidel.diag functions in R. We report posterior distributions of latent variables and parameters as 0.500 (median), and 0.025 and 0.975 quantiles (e.g. 95% credible intervals).
We assessed convergence of the Markov chain Monte Carlo method as well as sensitivity to priors to ensure robustness of estimates to priors (results not shown).
We assessed convergence of BAMM runs by computing ESS for the likelihood of the data and for the number of distinct regimes, obtaining more than 4000 independent samples from the posterior after a "burn-in" of 10%%.
