R Documentation

Variance Weights for glsStruct 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 model is returned.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'glsStruct'
varWeights(object)

Arguments

object

an object inheriting from class "glsStruct", representing a list of linear model components, such as corStruct and "varFunc" objects.

Value

if object includes a varStruct component, a vector with the corresponding variance weights; else, or a vector of ones.
