poisLikSI


Numeric; outcome from a Poisson experiment


level


tolerance argument passed to uniroot for finding SI endpoints



Logical; Whether or not to simulate the confidence level of the SI


conf


Number of simulations to determine coverage if conf=T



This function takes Poisson data and using a root finding algorithm to calculate the support interval at the user's specified level.  If conf=T, the function will attempt to estimate the confidence level of the support interval using a parametric bootstrap approach.


 ~kwd1 

 ~kwd2 

Calculates likelihood based support intervals for
several common data types including binomial, Poisson, normal, lm(), and
glm(). For the binomial, Poisson, and normal data likelihood intervals are
calculated via root finding algorithm. Additional parameters allow the
user to specify whether they would like to receive a parametric bootstrap
estimate of the confidence level of said support interval. For lm() and glm(),
the function returns profile likelihoods for each coefficient in the model.
