| \title{ |
| Class \code{"profile.mle"}; Profiling information for \code{"mle"} object |
| } |
| \description{Likelihood profiles along each parameter of likelihood function} |
| \section{Objects from the Class}{ |
| Objects can be created by calls of the form \code{new("profile.mle", |
| ...)}, but most often by invoking \code{profile} on an "mle" object. |
| } |
| \section{Slots}{ |
| \describe{ |
| \item{\code{profile}:}{Object of class \code{"list"}. List of |
| profiles, one for each requested parameter. Each profile is a data |
| frame with the first column called \code{z} being the signed square |
| root of the -2 log likelihood ratio, and the others being the |
| parameters with names prefixed by \code{par.vals.}} |
| \item{\code{summary}:}{Object of class \code{"summary.mle"}. Summary |
| of object being profiled.} |
| } |
| } |
| \section{Methods}{ |
| \describe{ |
| \item{confint}{\code{signature(object = "profile.mle")}: Use profile |
| to generate approximate confidence intervals for parameters.} |
| \item{plot}{\code{signature(x = "profile.mle", y = "missing")}: Plot |
| profiles for each parameter.} |
| } |
