NAME

       gbnlpanel - Non-linear panel regression

SYNOPSIS

       gbnlpanel [options] <FUN>

DESCRIPTION

       Each  row  of a block represents a single process realization. Blocks are separated by two
       white spaces and represent model variables, columns represent the time variable. Input  is
       read  as (X1_[r,t],...,Xj_[r,t],...  XN_[r,t]), where r is the row, t the column and j the
       block. The model assumes that

       FUN(X1_[r,t],...,XN_[t,t]) - c_r = e_{r,t}

       with e i.i.d and 'c' arow specific element, which can be fixed (fixed effect) or a  normal
       random variable (random effect).

       -A     comma  separated  MLL optimization options: step,tol,iter,eps,msize,algo. Use empty
              fields for default.  (default 0.1,0.01,500,1e-6,1e-6,0)

       step   initial step size of the searching algorithm

       tol    line search tolerance iter: maximum number of iterations
