BEASTObject that performs calculations based on the State.
Probabilistic representation that can produce a log probability for instance for running an MCMC chain.
Produces prior (log) probability of value x.If x is multidimensional, the components of x are assumed to be independent, so the sum of log probabilities of all elements of x is returned as the prior.
Logable: yes, this can be used in a log.
