fit.SingleArrayUnitModel: Estimates the model parameters
Description
Estimates the model parameters for all or a subset of the units.Usage
## S3 method for class 'SingleArrayUnitModel':
fit(this, arrays=NULL, units="remaining", ..., force=FALSE, verbose=FALSE)
Arguments
arrays
The arrays to be fitted.
If NULL, all arrays are considered.
If remaining, only non-fitted arrays are considered. units
The units to be fitted.
If NULL, all units are considered.
If remaining, only non-fitted units are considered. force
If TRUE, already fitted units are re-fitted, and
cached data is re-read. Details
All estimates are stored to file.
The parameter estimates specific to each array,
typically "chip effects",
are stored in array specific files.
Array-specific estimates [K = nbr of arrays]:
theta [K doubles] (chip effects), sd(theta) [K doubles],
isOutlier(theta) [K logicals]
For each array and each unit group, we store:
1 theta, 1 sd(theta), 1 isOutlier(theta), i.e. (float, float, bit)
=> For each array and each unit (with $G_j$ groups), we store:
$G_j$ theta, $G_j$ sd(theta), $G_j$ isOutlier(theta),
i.e. $G_j$*(float, float, bit).
