Create a respModule object, which could be from a
derived class such as glmRespMod or
nlsRespMod.
Usage
mkRespMod(fr, family = NULL, nlenv = NULL, nlmod = NULL)
Arguments
fr
a model frame, usually created by a call to model.frame.
family
an optional glm family object
(glmRespMod objects only).
nlenv
an environment for evaluation of the nonlinear model, nlmod.
(nlsRespMod objects only).
nlmod
the nonlinear model function, as a function call
(nlsRespMod objects only).
Value
an object of a class inheriting from respModule.
Details
The internal representation of a statistical model based on
a linear predictor expression is derived from a formula
expression and a data argument, possibly supplemented with a
family object and/or a nonlinear model expression. The
steps to obtain this representation usually involve calls to
model.frame and to model.matrix or
model.Matrix, which encapsulate important parts of this
process. This function encapsulates other operations related to
weights and offsets and to the model family to create a
respModule object.
