Homework 6.1: Diagnosing nonidentifiability with MCMC (40 pts)


In Homework 1.3c and in Homework 2.3c, you respectively used frequentist techniques and brute-force plotting of the posterior to diagnose nonidentifiability in two models.

a) In those models, we used Jeffreys priors. Re-write the models using reasonable weakly informative priors.

b) Use MCMC to diagnose the nonidentifiability in the models.
