curvefit.initializer.initializer.BetaPrior

Gets information about a beta prior for a model

See PriorInitializerComponent for a description of a prior initializer. This prior initializer component uses one joint model fit that has beta as a parameter. Typically this prior is used only on a subset of groups that have more information about what beta should be. This prior initializer component uses the fixed effect mean as the new prior mean and the standard deviation of the random effects as the prior standard deviation for beta.

NOTE: Requires a 'beta' parameter in a ParameterSet.
