Creating Objects of Generalized Linear Models

Source: R/glm_.R
glm_.Rd

glm_ is a wrapper function of stats::glm to create an object to be passed into jointCovariance, the main function of this package through its argument .... The object defines how a GLM model would be fitted.

Usage

glm_(formula, family, data_index = 1)

Arguments

formula

see formula in stats::glm.

family

currently supports "gaussian" or "binomial". Other families are under testing.

data_index

integer. Index of the data frame in the data argument of jointCovariance to be used when fitting a generalized linear model.

Details

Not all arguments of stats::glm are supported in glm_ due to the complexity in handling environment and scope, which is particularly difficult for arguments like weights, subset, etc.
