Simulate from a glmmTMB fitted model

# S3 method for glmmTMB
simulate(object, nsim = 1, seed = NULL, ...)

Arguments

object

glmmTMB fitted model

nsim

number of response lists to simulate. Defaults to 1.

seed

random number seed

...

extra arguments

Value

returns a list of vectors. The list has length nsim. Each simulated vector of observations is the same size as the vector of response variables in the original data set. In the binomial family case each simulation is a two-column matrix with success/failure.

Details

Random effects are also simulated from their estimated distribution. Currently, it is not possible to condition on estimated random effects.
