drmc {drc}R Documentation

Sets control arguments

Description

Set control arguments in the control argument in the function 'drm'.

Usage

  drmc(constr = FALSE, errorm = TRUE, maxIt = 500, method="BFGS", 
  noMessage = FALSE, relTol = 1e-07, rmNA=FALSE, useD = FALSE, trace = FALSE, warnVal = -1)

Arguments

constr logical. If TRUE optimisation is constrained, only yielding non-negative parameters.
errorm logical specifying whether failed convergence in drm should result in an error or only a warning.
maxIt numeric. The maximum number of iterations in the optimisation procedure.
method character string. The method used in the optimisation procedure. See optim for available methods.
noMessage logical, specifying whether or not messages should be displayed.
relTol numeric. The relative tolerance in the optimisation procedure.
rmNA logical. Should NAs be removed from sum of squares used for estimation? Default is FALSE (not removed).
useD logical. If TRUE derivatives are used for estimation (if available).
trace logical. If TRUE the trace from optim is displayed.
warnVal numeric. If equal to 0 then the warnings are stored and displayed at the end. See under 'warn' in options. The default results in suppression of warnings.

Value

A list with 8 components, one for each of the above arguments.

Note

The use of a non-zero constant bcAdd may in some cases make it more difficult to obtain convergence of the estimation procedure.
