Computes link values for real parameters for a particular type of parameter (parameter) and returns in a table (dataframe) format.
get.link(
model,
parameter,
beta = NULL,
design = NULL,
data = NULL,
vcv = FALSE
)
estimates: If vcv=TRUE
, a list is returned with elements
vcv.link
and the dataframe estimates
. If vcv=FALSE
,
only the estimates dataframe is returned which has the same structure as in
get.real
.
MARK model object
type of parameter in model (character) (e.g.,"Phi")
values of beta parameters for computation of link values
a numeric design matrix with any covariate values filled in with numerical values
covariate data to be averaged for estimates if design=NULL
if TRUE computes and returns the v-c matrix of the subset of the link values
Jeff Laake
This function is very similar to get.real
except that it
provides estimates of link values before they are transformed to real
estimates using the inverse-link. Also, the value is always a dataframe for
the estimates and design data and optionally a variance-covariance matrix.
See get.real
for further details about the arguments.
