Package: dentist Title: Dents the Likelihood Surface to Estimate Parameter Uncertainty Version: 0.0.4 Authors@R: c(person(given = "Brian", family = "O'Meara", role = c("aut", "cre"), email = "omeara.brian@gmail.com", comment = c(ORCID = "0000-0002-0337-5997")), person(given = "James", family = "Boyko", role = c("aut"), comment = c(ORCID = "0000-0003-0952-169X")) ) Description: This will sample points around a specified distance from the maximum likelihood estimates. This should be a better way to estimate uncertainty than using the Hessian of the likelihood equation. It works by "denting" the likelihood surface to make a ridge at the desired difference in log likelihood and then "walks" around this dented surface, sampling points.
