Description Usage Arguments Details Value Examples

enriched_glm fits generalized linear models using glm and then enriches the resulting object with all enrichment options.

1	enriched_glm(formula, family = gaussian, ...)

`formula`	an object of class `"formula"` (or one that can be coerced to that class): a symbolic description of the model to be fitted. The details of model specification are given under ‘Details’.
`family`	a description of the error distribution and link function to be used in the model. For `glm` this can be a character string naming a family function, a family function or the result of a call to a family function. For `glm.fit` only the third option is supported. (See `family` for details of family functions.)
`...`	other arguments passed to `glm`

enriched_glm has the same interface as glm

An object of class enriched_glm that contains all the components of a glm object, along with a set of auxiliary functions (score function, information matrix, a simulate method, first term in the expansion of the bias of the maximum likelihood estimator, and dmodel, pmodel, qmodel), the maximum likelihood estimate of the dispersion parameter, the expected or observed information at the maximum likelihood estimator, and the first term in the expansion of the bias of the maximum likelihood estimator.

See enrich.glm for more details and links for the auxiliary functions.
