factorMerger is the base class of the factorMerger package. factorMerger stores information about response, initial factor, its levels and their abbreviated names (field map). factorMerger creates its own structure of inheritance connected with model family.

When merging is applied, factorMerger shows which levels have been merged together with the matching summary statistics: model loglikelihood, pvalue for the LRT test against the full model and Generalized Information Criterion value.
