tuneBSunivar {changepoints}

R Documentation

Univariate mean change points detection based on standard or wild binary segmentation with tuning parameter selected by sSIC.

Description

Perform univariate mean change points detection based on standard or wild binary segmentation. The threshold parameter tau for WBS is automatically selected based on the sSIC score defined in Equation (4) in Fryzlewicz (2014).

Usage

tuneBSunivar(BS_object, y)

Arguments

BS_object	A "BS" object produced by BS.univar or WBS.univar.
y	A numeric vector of observations.

Value

A list with the following structure:

cpt	A vector of estimated change point locations (sorted in strictly increasing order).
tau	A scalar of selected threshold tau based on sSIC.

Examples

cpt_true = c(20, 50, 170)
y = rnorm(300) + c(rep(0,20),rep(2,30),rep(0,120),rep(2,130))
## change points detection by WBS
intervals = WBS.intervals(M = 100, lower = 1, upper = length(y))
temp2 = WBS.univar(y, 1, length(y), intervals$Alpha, intervals$Beta, delta = 5)
WBS_result = tuneBSunivar(temp2, y)
