make_global_loglik2 {convoSPAT}

Constructor functions for global parameter estimation.

Description

This function generates another function to be used within optim to obtain maximum likelihood estimates of global variance parameter sigmasq with a fixed correlation matrix (smoothness is fixed). The nugget variance is taken to be spatially-varing.

Usage

make_global_loglik2(data, Xmat, Corr, obs.nuggets, nugg2.var)

Arguments

data

A vector or matrix of data to use in the likelihood calculation.

Xmat

The design matrix for the mean model.

Corr

The correlation matrix.

obs.nuggets

A vector containing the spatially-varying nuggets corresponding to each data location.

nugg2.var

Fixed values for the covariance of the second nugget term.

Value

This function returns another function for use in optim.
