What does "time" represent? #26

Open felpi opened 4 years ago

felpi commented 4 years ago

I am not sure I understand time in the shape for [observations, time] from the readme, I tried to use a value of time=1, thinking if I only try to use a sequence of values for the sample, but the transition matrix converges to [[1,1,1],[1,1,1],[1,1,1]], which makes me wonder what does time means, and if I am using correctly for the sequence x1, x2, x3...

Hi @felpi,

I also have this problem, did you ever find out the meaning of time?

AndreasMadsen commented 3 years ago

@felpi @lukegib time refers to the length of the time-series. observations refers to the number of time-series.
