sign_coherence: Sign Coherence Constraint

Description

Constraint which ensures that the coefficients of the specified covariates have a coherent sign.

Usage

sign_coherence(vars, big_m = 100, eps = 1e-06)

Value

A holistic generalized model constraint, object inheriting from class "hglmc".

Arguments

vars

a character vector giving the names of the covariates the constraint should be applied to.

big_m

a double giving the big-M parameter.

eps

a double giving the epsilon used to ensure that the constraint holds.
