mbrglm.control {mbrglm}

Auxiliary for Controlling MBRGLM Fitting

Description

Auxiliary function as user interface for mbrglm fitting. Typically only used when calling mbrglm or mbrglm.fit.

Usage

mbrglm.control(mbr.epsilon = 1e-06, mbr.maxit = 500, 
  mbr.trace = FALSE, ...)

Arguments

mbr.epsilon

positive convergence tolerance for the iteration described in mbrglm.fit.

mbr.maxit

integer giving the maximum number of iterations for the iteration in mbrglm.fit.

mbr.trace

logical indicating if output should be produced for each iteration.

...

further arguments passed to or from other methods.

Details

The control argument of mbrglmis by default passed to the control argument of mbrglm.fit, which uses its elements as arguments to glm.control: the latter provides defaults.

If mbr.trace=TRUE, calls to cat produce the iteration number, the parameter estimates and the current value of the modified scores for each iteration.

Value

A list with the arguments as components.
