plot.profile.PrevMap {PrevMap}

Plot of the profile log-likelihood for the covariance parameters of the Matern function

Description

This function displays a plot of the profile log-likelihood that is computed by the function loglik.linear.model.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'profile.PrevMap'
plot(x, log.scale = FALSE, plot.spline.profile = FALSE, ...)

Arguments

x

object of class "profile.PrevMap" obtained as output from loglik.linear.model.

log.scale

logical; if log.scale=TRUE, the profile likleihood is plotted on the log-scale of the parameter values.

plot.spline.profile

logical; if TRUE an interpolating spline of the profile-likelihood of for a univariate parameter is plotted. Default is FALSE.

...

further arugments passed to plot if the profile log-likelihood is for only one parameter, or to contour for the bi-variate profile-likelihood.

Value

A plot is returned. No value is returned.
