Linear Mixed-Effects Structure
.DN
A linear mixed-effects structure is a list of model components
representing different sets of parameters in the linear mixed-effects
model. An `lmeStruct' list must contain at least a
`reStruct' object, but may also contain `corStruct' and
`varFunc' objects. `NULL' arguments are not included in the
`lmeStruct' list.

.AG reStruct
a `reStruct' representing a random effects
structure.
.OA
.AG corStruct
an optional `corStruct' object, representing a
correlation structure. Default is `NULL'.
.AG varStruct
an optional `varFunc' object, representing a
variance function structure. Default is `NULL'.
.RT
a list of model components determining the parameters to be estimated
for the associated linear mixed-effects model.
