mpl: Maximum Adjusted Profile Likelihood Estimation --- Generic Function

Description

Calculates the maximum adjusted profile likelihood estimates.

Usage

mpl(fitted, …)

Arguments

fitted

any fitted model object for which the maximum adjusted profile likelihood estimates can be calculated.

…

absorbs any additional argument.

Value

the maximum adjusted profile likelihood estimates for all parameters of a regression model or for a subset of them.

Details

This function is generic (see methods); method functions can be written to handle specific classes of data. Classes which already have methods for this function include: nlreg.
