Value

A list:

param_est

Vector of combined parameter estimates with the same length as columns in param_imps.

cov_param

Combined variance-covariance matrix of size n x n, where n is the number of columns in param_imps.

between_cov

Between imputations variance-covariance matrix of size n x n, where n is the number of columns in param_imps.

Arguments

Matrix containing estimated parameters in each imputation as its rows.

cov_imps
