counts_MLE.Rd
Compute the MLE for parasite counts data
counts_MLE(alpha, counts, inits, F_b, F_Sa, q = 6, bvm = 13, SANN = FALSE)
the ages of infection
the counts
the initial guesses for the parameters
a function to constrain the upper bound for fitting for Fmu
a function to constrain the slope for fitting for Fmu
the sampling volume (in \(\log_{10} microliters\))
the blood volume (in \(\log_{10} microliters\))
if true, then use simulated annealing
the fitted parameter values and the log likelihood
