prof.rlik: Profile Likelihood for Kriging

In jpkeller/ruk: Regionalized Universal Kriging

Description

Evaluates profile likelihood function for (regionalized) universal kriging model.

Usage

prof.rlik(pars, X, coords, reg.ind, y, cov.model = "exp",
  useSTpackage = TRUE)

Arguments

pars	Log covariance parameters
X	Kriging covariate model matrix
coords	Coordinates
reg.ind	Region indicator
y	Observed outcome values.
cov.model	Covariance model for each region.
useSTpackage	Logical. If the SpatioTemporal package is available, uses block cholesky functions within that package for improved performance.

Details

This function is primarily intended to be called via rlikfit, and thus has limited checking of arguments.

Value

Scalar value giving the *negative* log profile likelihood for the kriging model.
