Well, if I understand the question correctly (following the posting guide would have spared guessing, as usual), forget packages -- nothing more than elementary algebra is needed.
e.g. lm(y ~ x1 + x2 + x3) subject to the constraint beta_2 = beta_3, the coefficients of x2 and x3, is the same as lm (y ~ x1 + z) where z = x3 + x3 (sum of the 2 covariate vectors). etc. etc. ... ??? -- Bert On Mon, Oct 31, 2011 at 12:16 PM, Kristian Lind < kristian.langgaard.l...@gmail.com> wrote: > I believe the package systemfit can help you with that.
