selecting the numbers of posterior samples in bart_machine_get_posterior #23

Closed claudiofronterre closed 6 years ago

claudiofronterre commented 6 years ago

Hi Adam,

Would be possible to add an argument to the function bart_machine_get_posterior to decide the number of posterior samples? I see that at the moment the default is 1000.

Many thanks,

Claudio

Isn't that the "num_iterations_after_burn_in" parameter? I'm not sure I follow.

You are right, it inherits it from the bartMachine object. That's great, thank you.
