| pdMatrix.reStruct {nlme} | R Documentation |
This method function extracts the positive-definite matrices
corresponding to the pdMat elements of object, or
square-root factors of the positive-definite matrices.
## S3 method for class 'reStruct': pdMatrix(object, factor)
object |
an object inheriting from class reStruct,
representing a random effects structure and consisting of a list of
pdMat objects. |
factor |
an optional logical value. If TRUE, square-root
factors of the positive-definite matrices represented by the elements
of object are returned; else, if FALSE, the
positive-definite matrices are returned. Defaults to FALSE. |
a list with components given by the positive-definite matrices
corresponding to the elements of object, or square-root factors
of the positive-definite matrices.
