# From an email sent to mikis.stasinopoulos@gamlss.org on Fri 2018-05-25 1:41 PM
# No response was given

# Hello Mikis –

#Thank you for the gamlss package, its broad applicability address many real data problems I run into. I have a question about the comparability of gamlss and lme for the case of normal data which arose as I was developing a function to calculate the intraclass correlation (ICC) from lme and gamlss objects. The question I have is whether one can replicate a model in gamlss and lme? In the example below, I can get the same variance components and ICC if I use ‘sigma.formula = ~ 0’ but not using ‘sigma.formula = ~ 1’, but the former results in an error and fails to produce AIC, etc. (see the last line of code).

#Is it possible to get the same variance components and still get the AIC from gamlss? I have the sense ‘sigma.formula = ~ 0’ is not appropriate but the fact that it replicate the lme variances gives me pause. Any insight is appreciated. Thank you.
