Markov chain density plots
Whereas a trace plot captures a Markov chain's longitudinal behavior, a density plot illustrates the final distribution of the chain values. In turn, the density plot provides an approximation of the posterior model. You will construct and examine density plots of the \(m\) Markov chain below. The mcmc.list object sleep_sim and sleep_chains data frame are in your workspace:
sleep_sim <- coda.samples(model = sleep_jags, variable.names = c("m", "s"), n.iter = 10000)
sleep_chains <- data.frame(sleep_sim[[1]], iter = 1:10000)
