\usage{occuPEN(formula, data, knownOcc=numeric(0), starts, method="BFGS",
    engine=c("C", "R"), lambda=0, pen.type = c("Bayes","Ridge","MPLE"), ...)}

\arguments{
    \item{formula}{Double right-hand side formula describing covariates of
        detection and occupancy in that order.}
    \item{data}{An \code{\link{unmarkedFrameOccu}} object}
    \item{knownOcc}{Vector of sites that are known to be occupied. These
    should be supplied as row numbers of the y matrix, eg, c(3,8) if
    sites 3 and 8 were known to be occupied a priori.}
    \item{starts}{Vector of parameter starting values.}
    \item{method}{Optimization method used by \code{\link{optim}}.}
    \item{engine}{Either "C" or "R" to use fast C++ code or native R
      code during the optimization.}
    \item{lambda}{Penalty weight parameter.}
    \item{pen.type}{Which form of penalty to use.}
    \item{\dots}{Additional arguments to optim, such as lower and upper
      bounds}

\description{This function fits the occupancy model of MacKenzie et al (2002) with the penalized methods of Hutchinson et al (2015).}

\details{

See \code{\link{unmarkedFrame}} and \code{\link{unmarkedFrameOccu}} for a
description of how to supply data to the \code{data} argument.

\code{occuPEN} fits the standard occupancy model based on
zero-inflated binomial models (MacKenzie et al. 2006, Royle and
Dorazio 2008) using the penalized likelihood methods described in
Hutchinson et al. (2015).  See \code{\link{occu}} for model
details. \code{occuPEN} returns parameter estimates that maximize a
penalized likelihood in which the penalty is specified by the
\code{pen.type} argument. The penalty function is weighted by
\code{lambda}. 

The MPLE method includes an equation for computing \code{lambda}
(Moreno & Lele, 2010). If the value supplied does not equal match the
one computed with this equation, the supplied value is used anyway
(with a warning).
