$OMEGA blocks and log-likelihood profiling

From: Justin Wilkins jwilkins@uctgsh1.uct.ac.za Subject: [NMusers] $OMEGA blocks and log-likelihood profiling Date: Mon, May 31, 2004 9:26 am Hi all, When doing a log-likelihood profile of a model containing an $OMEGA BLOCK(n) structure, what is best practice for mapping ETAs that are defined by this kind of parameterization? It's my understanding that only the entire block can be fixed...
