Class for components whose variable is generated by a PyMC distribution

Parameters:

group (Union[str, Tuple[str, ...]]) – Group of which the component is defined for, defaults to None
members (Iterable[Any]) – Subset of members of column the component is defined for, defaults to None
**subcomponents – Underlying components/objects passed as parameters to PyMC distribution, should correspond

to keyword of generator

import pymc as pm
from sakkara.model import DistributionComponent as DC
sigma_comp = DC(pm.HalfNormal)
