LinMod.REMA.dep used by LinMod.MetAn.dep.REMA to estimate parameters
LinMod.REMA.delta.split REMA (with delta-splitting)
LinMod.HBLM.fast.dep HBLM (no delta-splitting)
new.LinMod.HBLM.fast.dep.delta.split HBLM (with delta-splitting)
LinMod.MetAn.dep.FEMA FEMA
metahdep.check.X check design matrix X, and drop columns if necessary
to make full rank
get.M create block diagonal M matrix, given dependence structure
tr calculate trace of matrix
id create identity matrix

Examples

## Create the M matrix for the glossing example
## - here, studies 2-5 are one hierarchically dependent group (Baumann),
## and studies 10-12 are another hierarchically dependent group (Joyce)
data(gloss)
dep.groups <- list(c(2:5),c(10:12))
M <- get.M(length(gloss.theta),dep.groups)
