function [F,sE,sC] = spm_log_evidence_reduce(qE,qC,pE,pC,rE,rC,TOL)
% Return the log-evidence of a reduced model (under Laplace approximation)
% FORMAT [F,sE,sC] = spm_log_evidence_reduce(qE,qC,pE,pC,rE,rC)
%
% qE,qC   - posterior expectation and covariance of full model
% pE,pC   - prior expectation and covariance of full model
% rE,rC   - prior expectation and covariance of reduced model
%
% F       - reduced log-evidence: ln p(y|reduced model) - ln p(y|full model)
% [sE,sC] - posterior expectation and covariance of reduced model
%__________________________________________________________________________
% 
% This routine assumes the reduced model is nested within a full model and
% that the posteriors (and priors) are Gaussian. Nested here means that the
% prior precision of the reduced model, minus the prior precision of the
% full model is positive definite. We additionally assume that the prior
% means are unchanged. The two input argument formats are for use with
% spm_argmax.
%
% This version is the same as spm_log_evidence but performs an
% eigen-reduction of the prior covariance matrix to eliminate fixed
% mixtures of parameters (to ensure well conditioned matrix inversion)
