estimatePcev {pcev}

Estimation of PCEV

Description

estimatePcev estimates the PCEV.

Usage

estimatePcev(pcevObj, ...)

## Default S3 method:
estimatePcev(pcevObj, ...)

## S3 method for class 'PcevClassical'
estimatePcev(pcevObj, shrink, index, ...)

## S3 method for class 'PcevBlock'
estimatePcev(pcevObj, shrink, index, ...)

## S3 method for class 'PcevSingular'
estimatePcev(pcevObj, shrink, index, ...)

Arguments

pcevObj

A pcev object of class PcevClassical, PcevBlock or PcevSingular

...

Extra parameters.

shrink

Should we use a shrinkage estimate of the residual variance?

index

If pcevObj is of class PcevBlock, index is a vector describing the block to which individual response variables correspond.

Value

A list containing the variance components, the first PCEV, the eigenvalues of V_R^{-1}V_M and the estimate of the shrinkage parameter \rho
