glsObject: Fitted gls Object

Description

An object returned by the gls function, inheriting from class gls and representing a generalized least squares fitted linear model. Objects of this class have methods for the generic functions anova, coef, fitted, formula, getGroups, getResponse, intervals, logLik, plot, predict, print, residuals, summary, and update.

Arguments

Value

  • The following components must be included in a legitimate gls object.
  • apVaran approximate covariance matrix for the variance-covariance coefficients. If apVar = FALSE in the list of control values used in the call to gls, this component is equal to NULL.
  • calla list containing an image of the gls call that produced the object.
  • coefficientsa vector with the estimated linear model coefficients.
  • contrastsa list with the contrasts used to represent factors in the model formula. This information is important for making predictions from a new data frame in which not all levels of the original factors are observed. If no factors are used in the model, this component will be an empty list.
  • dimsa list with basic dimensions used in the model fit, including the components N - the number of observations in the data and p - the number of coefficients in the linear model.
  • fitteda vector with the fitted values..
  • glsStructan object inheriting from class glsStruct, representing a list of linear model components, such as corStruct and varFunc objects.
  • groupsa vector with the correlation structure grouping factor, if any is present.
  • logLikthe log-likelihood at convergence.
  • methodthe estimation method: either "ML" for maximum likelihood, or "REML" for restricted maximum likelihood.
  • numIterthe number of iterations used in the iterative algorithm.
  • residualsa vector with the residuals.
  • sigmathe estimated residual standard error.
  • varBetaan approximate covariance matrix of the coefficients estimates.
