MARSS (version 3.2)

MARSSvectorizeparam: Vector to Parameter Matrix Conversion

Description

Converts MLEobj$par to a vector of the estimated parameter elements and vice versa. This is a utility function in the MARSS-package.

Usage

MARSSvectorizeparam(MLEobj, parvec = NA)

Arguments

MLEobj

An object of class marssMLE.

parvec

NA or a vector. See Value.

Value

• If parvec=NA, a vector of estimated parameters. Otherwise, a marssMLE object with $par set by parvec.

Details

Utility function to generate parameter vectors for optimization functions, and to set MLEobj$par using a vector of parameter values (only the estimated values).
