\title{Generalized Nonlinear Least Squares Structure}
\usage{
gnlsStruct(corStruct, varStruct)
}
\alias{gnlsStruct}
\alias{Initialize.gnlsStruct}
\arguments{
\item{corStruct}{an optional \code{corStruct} object, representing a
correlation structure. Default is \code{NULL}.}
\item{varStruct}{an optional \code{varFunc} object, representing a
variance function structure. Default is \code{NULL}.}
}
\description{
A generalized nonlinear least squares structure is a list of model
components representing different sets of parameters in the nonlinear
model. A \code{gnlsStruct} may contain \code{corStruct} and
\code{varFunc} objects. \code{NULL} arguments are not included in the
\code{gnlsStruct} list.
}
\value{
a list of model variance-covariance components determining the
parameters to be estimated for the associated nonlinear model.
