Add methods for observed information matrices #25

Open jepusto opened 4 years ago

This will require calculating 2nd derivatives of error variance-covariance components.

I take it that this isn't available yet? At least, trying to set type="observed" leads to the error object 'info' not found (in the just released version 0.3.0). Might be nice to add a note about this in the docs.

Correct, it's not yet implemented. It will take some further work because the observed information requires second derivatives of the variance-covariance matrix (expected and average information don't). We can add a note in the docs and error checking in the function to make clear which are supported.

A note would be useful. I played around with it for a while (thinking that maybe it was the particular model I was working with where it didn't work) and was headed here to make a bug report when I saw this issue.
