Class of objects returned when calculating the maximum adjusted profile likelihood estimates of the variance parameters of a nonlinear heteroscedastic model.
the maximum adjusted profile likelihood estimates of the variance parameters.
the constrained MLEs of the regression coefficients given the maximum adjusted profile likelihood estimates of the variance parameters.
the values passed through the offset
argument in the call
to mpl.nlreg
that generated the mpl
object and to which the variance parameters were fixed.
the MLEs of the variance parameters.
the MLEs of the regression coefficients.
the (asymptotic) covariance matrix of the variance parameters, that is, the corresponding block in the inverse of the observed information matrix.
the (asymptotic) covariance matrix of the regression coefficients, that is, the corresponding block in the inverse of the observed information matrix.
the adjusted profile log likelihood from the fit.
the profile log likelihood from the fit.
the indicator of which higher order solution was used.
the model formula.
the formula expression of the mean function.
the formula expression of the variance function.
a list representing a summary of the original data with the following components.
'offset name'
the predictor variable with no duplicated value.
repl
the number of replicates available for each value of the predictor.
dupl
a vector of the same length than the predictor variable indicating the position of each data point in the offset name component.
t1
the sum of the reponses for each design point in the offset name component.
t2
the sum of the squared responses for each design point in the offset name component.
the number of observations.
the number of interations needed for convergence; only if
offset
is not NULL
.
an image of the call to mpl.nlreg
, but with all the
arguments explicitly named.
a list containing information that is used in subsequent calculations, that is:
allPar
the MLEs of all parameters.
homVar
a logical value indicating whether the variance function is constant.
xVar
a logical value indicating whether the variance function depends on the predictor variable.
hoa
the value of the hoa
argument in the call that
generated the nlreg
object passed through the
fitted
argument.
missingData
a logical value indicating whether the data
argument was missing in the call that generated the
nlreg
object passed through the
fitted
argument.
frame
the name of the data frame if specified in the call to
nlreg
that generated the fitted
argument.
iter
the number of iteration required until convergence (only for non constant variance function).
md
a function definition that returns the first two derivatives
of the mean function if hoa = TRUE
in the function
call that generated the nlreg
object passed through
the fitted
argument.
vd
a function definition that returns the first two derivatives
of the variance function if hoa = TRUE
in the
function call that generated the nlreg
object passed
through the fitted
argument.
This class of objects is returned by the
mpl.nlreg
function. Class mpl
inherits
from class nlreg
.
