Class "mle" for Results of Maximum Likelihood Estimation

Description

This class encapsulates results of a generic maximum likelihood procedure.

Objects from the Class

Objects can be created by calls of the form new("mle", ...), but most often as the result of a call to mle.

Slots

call:

Object of class "language". The call to mle.

coef:

Object of class "numeric". Estimated parameters.

fullcoef:

Object of class "numeric". Fixed and estimated parameters.

vcov:

Object of class "matrix". Approximate variance-covariance matrix.

min:

Object of class "numeric". Minimum value of objective function.

details:

Object of class "list". List returned from optim.

minuslogl:

Object of class "function". The negative loglikelihood function.

method:

Object of class "character". The optimization method used.

Methods
