set.initial

Sets initial values specified in a list.

Functions for fitting various models to capture-recapture data
including mixed-effects Cormack-Jolly-Seber(CJS) and multistate models and
the multi-variate state model structure for survival
estimation and POPAN structured Jolly-Seber models for abundance estimation.
There are also Hidden Markov model (HMM) implementations of CJS and multistate
models with and without state uncertainty and a simulation capability for HMM
models.
