geese.control {geepack} | R Documentation |
Auxiliary function as user interface for `gee' fitting. Only used when calling `geese' or `geese.fit'.
geese.control(epsilon = 1e-04, maxit = 25, trace = FALSE, scale.fix = FALSE, jack = FALSE, j1s = FALSE, fij = FALSE)
epsilon |
positive convergence tolerance epsilon; the iterations
converge when the absolute value of the difference in parameter
estimate is below epsilon . |
maxit |
integer giving the maximal number of Fisher Scoring iteration. |
trace |
logical indicating if output should be produced for each iteration. |
scale.fix |
logical indicating if the scale should be fixed. |
jack |
logical indicating if approximate jackknife variance estimate should be computed. |
j1s |
logical indicating if 1-step jackknife variance estimate should be computed. |
fij |
logical indicating if fully iterated jackknife variance estimate should be computed. |
When `trace' is true, output for each iteration is printed to the screen by the c++ code. Hence, `options(digits = *)' does not control the precision.
A list with the arguments as components.
