gradient

<code>gradient</code> returns the current gradient wrt the regression parameters of
the log-likelihood of the fit in a Cyclops model fit object

This model fitting tool incorporates cyclic coordinate descent and
majorization-minimization approaches to fit a variety of regression models
found in large-scale observational healthcare data. Implementations focus
on computational optimization and fine-scale parallelization to yield
efficient inference in massive datasets. Please see:
Suchard, Simpson, Zorych, Ryan and Madigan (2013) <doi:10.1145/2414416.2414791>.
