Plot.coef.glmnet {c060}

function to highlight the path of a pre-specified set of variables within the coefficient path

Description

Creates several plots showing the coefficient path for the final model of a cv.glmnet fit and highlights the path of a pre-specified set of variables within the coefficient path.

Usage

Plot.coef.glmnet(cvfit, betas)

Arguments

cvfit

an object of class "cv.glmnet" as returned by the function cv.glmnet.

betas

a vector of names of variables; must be a subset of rownames(coef(cvfit)).

Value

a list of four objects

stable

a vector giving the positions of the estimated stable variables

lambda

the penalization parameter used for the stability selection

lpos

the position of the penalization parameter in the regularization path

error

the desired type I error level w.r.t. to the chosen type I error rate

type

the type I error rate
