plot.gm {ctmcd}

Plot Function for Generator Matrix Estimation Objects

Description

Function for visualizing the output of a generator matrix estimation procedure.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'gm'
plot(x, mattext, col = c("grey", "red"), main = x$method, las = 1, 
xlab = "To", ylab = "From", xnames, ynames, cex = 1, fig = 3, opacity_factor, ...)

Arguments

x

a generator matrix estimation object

mattext

optional: matrix of strings replacing the parameter estimates

col

two element vector of basis colors for positive and negative parameter estimate entries

main

optional: plot title

las

orientation of x and y axis elements

xlab

x axis name

ylab

y axis name

xnames

description of x axis elements

ynames

description of y axis elements

cex

font size

fig

number of significant figure to be plotted

opacity_factor

two element vector for specification of opacity for positive and negative parameter entry highlighting (must be greater than zero)

...

additional arguments

## Maximum Likelihood Generator Matrix Estimate
gm0=matrix(1,8,8)
diag(gm0)=0
diag(gm0)=-rowSums(gm0)
gm0[8,]=0

gmem=gm(tm_abs,te=1,method="EM",gmguess=gm0)
