Extract the coefficients of the lcModel object, if defined.
The returned set of coefficients depends on the underlying type of lcModel.
The default implementation checks for the existence of a coef() function for the internal model as defined in the @model slot, returning the output if available.
Usage
# S3 method for lcModel
coef(object, ...)
Arguments
object
The lcModel object.
...
Additional arguments.
Value
A named numeric vector with all coefficients, or a matrix with each column containing the cluster-specific coefficients. If coef() is not defined for the given model, an empty numeric vector is returned.
Implementation
Classes extending lcModel can override this method to return model-specific coefficients.
coef.lcModelExt <- function(object, ...) {
# return model coefficients
}
# NOT RUN {data(latrendData)
method <- lcMethodLcmmGBTM(fixed = Y ~ Time, mixture = ~ 1,
id = "Id", time = "Time", nClusters = 3)
gbtm <- latrend(method, data = latrendData)
coef(gbtm)
# }
