upper function

Upper Bound

Set a upper bound on the coefficient of specific covariates.

upper(kvars)

Arguments

• kvars: a named vector giving the upper bounds. The names should correspond to the names of the covariates in the model matrix.

Returns

A holistic generalized model constraint, object inheriting from class "hglmc".

Examples

dat <- rhglm(100, c(1, 2, -3, 4, 5, -6))
constraints <- upper(c(x1 = 0, x4 = 1))
hglm(y ~ ., constraints = constraints, data = dat)
