+\title{Calculate Akaike weights for model averaging}
+\usage{
+aw(object, ...)
+
+\method{aw}{mkinfit}(object, ...)
+
+\method{aw}{mmkin}(object, ...)
+}
+\arguments{
+\item{object}{An mmkin column object, containing two or more
+\code{\link{mkinfit}} models that have been fitted to the same data,
+or an mkinfit object. In the latter case, further mkinfit
+objects fitted to the same data should be specified
+as dots arguments.}
+
+\item{\dots}{Not used in the method for mmkin column objects,
+further mkinfit objects in the method for mkinfit objects.}
+}
+\description{
+Akaike weights are calculated based on the relative
+expected Kullback-Leibler information as specified
+by Burnham and Anderson (2004).
