covHandling

unique parameters of the variance-covariance matrix of the random effects as returned by <code><a rd-options="" href="/link/lqmm?package=lqmm&version=1.5.5" data-mini-rdoc="lqmm::lqmm">lqmm</a></code> in <code>theta_z</code>.

theta

dimension of the vector of random effects.

see argument <code>covariance</code> in <code><a rd-options="" href="/link/lqmm?package=lqmm&version=1.5.5" data-mini-rdoc="lqmm::lqmm">lqmm</a></code>.

cov_name

type of quadrature "c("normal","robust")".

covariance

Functions to fit quantile regression models for hierarchical
data (2-level nested designs) as described in Geraci and
Bottai (2014, Statistics and Computing) <doi:10.1007/s11222-013-9381-9>.
A vignette is given in Geraci (2014, Journal of Statistical Software)
<doi:10.18637/jss.v057.i13> and included in the package documents.
The packages also provides functions to fit quantile models for
independent	data and for count responses.
