Using Hamiltonian Monte Carlo via Stan to estimate crop input response functions with stochastic plateaus

Bayesian analysis provides a principled way to quantify uncertainty and incorporate data and prior knowledge into parameter estimates. This paper makes the latest in Bayesian methods easier for others to use with a focus on a stochastic plateau crop production function. Previous studies have used Ba...
