is it logical to freeze only certain random effects and let other vary?
say in the instance you know that from prior information the inter-subject CV% on volume and clearance are ~15% and ~40% and you want to "freeze" the corresponding omega values, but you also want to estimate the random effects for ka, V2 and CL2 in a diagonal model.
(1) is this logical?
(2) how would this be coded in text form as I see there is only the option of freezing all random effects or none in the graphical interface or built-in models.
Thank you,
Elliot
