Log-Likelihood of a gls Object

Usage

logLik(object, REML)

Arguments

object an object inheriting from class gls, representing a generalized least squares fitted linear model.
REML an optional logical value. If TRUE the restricted log-likelihood is returned, else, if FALSE, the log-likelihood is returned. Defaults to FALSE.

Description

If REML=FALSE, returns the log-likelihood value of the linear model represented by object evaluated at the estimated coefficients; else, the restricted log-likelihood evaluated at the estimated coefficients is returned.

Value

the (restricted) log-likelihood of the linear model represented by object evaluated at the estimated coefficients.
