I want to use weights based on the residuals (not the usual residuals, refer to Markatou, M. (1996), ¡°Robust statistical inference: weighted likelihoods or usual M-estimation?¡± Communications in Statistics, Theory and Methods, 25, 2597-2613.). Basically, I want to calculate my own weights first, then use them in the mixed model in R. Can R do this? Thank you very much for your reply!
