#prior_weights_mta is a data.frame of subjective prior weights.
#Each weight is a real number between 0 and 1 which indicates,
#for the channel considered, how much weight will receive MTA in the final attribution calculation.
#Hence (1-MTA weight) is the weight of MMM for the channel considered. Since we know that
#channel alpha had some tracking problems than we decided to give it an MTA weight equal to $0.2$
#which implicates that MMM will receive a weight of 0.8 and thus MMM
#will be more important for that channel.
#The channels with no prior weight specified will receive a default of $0.5$ which means that
#MTA and MMM will be equally weighted in the attribution process.
