maxLik (version 1.3-6)

Maximum Likelihood Estimation and Related Tools

Description

Functions for Maximum Likelihood (ML) estimation and non-linear optimization, and related tools. It includes a unified way to call different optimizers, and classes and methods to handle the results from the ML viewpoint. It also includes a number of convenience tools for testing and developing your own models.
