BFGS lpdf — BFGS_lpdf • outerbase

A wrapper for codeBFGS_std that is useful for easily calling parameter optimization for this package with as few lines as possible. Note that om and logpdf will be set to optimal parameters, the return is simply for information.

Usage

BFGS_lpdf(
  om,
  logpdf,
  parlist = list(),
  newt = FALSE,
  cgsteps = 100,
  cgtol = 0.001,
  ...
)

Arguments

om: an outermod instance
logpdf: a lpdf instance
parlist: an initial point, which are pulled from `om` and `logpdf` if not provided
newt: boolean for if Newtons method should be used
cgsteps: max number of cg iterations, if newt=FALSE
cgtol: cg tolerance, if newt=FALSE
...: additional parameters passed to BFGS_std

Value

a list of information from optimization.
