This function constructs an OpenMx pedigree model by combining variance component parameters and family group models. It auto-detects which variance components are referenced in the group algebras and creates only those parameters.

Usage

buildPedigreeMx(model_name, vars, group_models)

Arguments

model_name

Name of the overall pedigree model.

vars

A named list or vector of initial variance component values.

group_models

A list of OpenMx models for each family group.

Value

An OpenMx pedigree model combining variance components and family groups.
