plot.grpreg {grpreg}

Plot coefficients from a "grpreg" object

Description

Produces a plot of the coefficient paths for a fitted grpreg object.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'grpreg'
plot(x, alpha=1, legend.loc, label=FALSE, log.l=FALSE,
norm=FALSE, ...)

Arguments

x

Fitted "grpreg" model.

alpha

Controls alpha-blending. Default is alpha=1.

legend.loc

Where should the legend go? If left unspecified, no legend is drawn. See legend for details.

label

If TRUE, annotates the plot with text labels in the right margin describing which variable/group the corresponding line belongs to.

log.l

Should horizontal axis be on the log scale? Default is FALSE.

norm

If TRUE, plot the norm of each group, rather than the individual coefficients.

# Fit model to birthweight data
data(Birthwt)
X <- Birthwt$X
y <- Birthwt$bwt
group <- Birthwt$group
fit <- grpreg(X, y, group, penalty="grLasso")

# Plot (basic)
plot(fit)

# Plot group norms, with labels in right margin
plot(fit, norm=TRUE, label=TRUE)

# Plot (miscellaneous options)
myColors <- c("black", "red", "green", "blue", "yellow", "purple",
"orange", "brown")
plot(fit, legend.loc="topleft", col=myColors)
labs <- c("Mother's Age", "# Phys. visits", "Hypertension", "Mother's weight",
          "# Premature", "Race", "Smoking", "Uterine irritability")
plot(fit, legend.loc="topleft", lwd=6, alpha=0.5, legend=labs)
