varWeights.lmeStruct: Variance Weights for lmeStruct Object
Description
If object
includes a varStruct
component, the inverse of
the standard deviations of the variance function structure represented
by the corresponding varFunc
object are returned; else, a
vector of ones of length equal to the number of observations in the
data frame used to fit the associated linear mixed-effects model is
returned.Usage
## S3 method for class 'lmeStruct':
varWeights(object)
Arguments
object
an object inheriting from class "lmeStruct"
,
representing a list of linear mixed-effects model components, such as
reStruct
, corStruct
, and varFunc
objects. Value
- if
object
includes a varStruct
component, a vector with
the corresponding variance weights; else, or a vector of ones.
