In rbiogeme: Interface to 'Biogeme'

Estimate a Biogeme model

Description

Estimate a Biogeme model

Usage

estimate(
  model,
  model_name = "rbiogeme_model",
  controls = list(),
  starting_values = NULL,
  run_bootstrap = FALSE,
  yaml_file_name = NULL,
  control = NULL
)

Arguments

model	A biogeme_model, including a model created by logit_model() or another specialized constructor.
model_name	Output/model name used by Biogeme.
controls	Named list of Biogeme controls.
starting_values	Optional named numeric vector of starting values.
run_bootstrap	Whether to run bootstrap re-estimation.
yaml_file_name	Optional path for Biogeme's standard YAML output.
control	Optional biogeme_control() object; an alias for controls.

Details

estimate() always requests a fresh native estimation. It does not load a previous YAML or iteration file implicitly. Use estimate_or_load() when explicit result loading or recycling is required.

Value

An object of class biogeme_fit.
