Compress replicate weight matrix

Many replicate weight matrices have redundant rows, such as when weights are the same for all observations in a PSU. This function produces a compressed form. Methods for as.matrix and as.vector extract and expand the weights.

compressWeights(rw, ...)
# S3 method for svyrep.design
compressWeights(rw,...)
# S3 method for repweights_compressed
as.matrix(x,...)
# S3 method for repweights_compressed
as.vector(x,...)

Arguments

rw

A set of replicate weights or a svyrep.design object

x

A compressed set of replicate weights

...

For future expansion

Value

An object of class repweights_compressed or a

svyrep.design object with repweights element of class repweights_compressed
