boot.plots {mvdalab}

Plots of the Output of a Bootstrap Simulation for an mvdareg Object

Description

This takes an mvdareg object fitted with validation = "oob" and produces a graph of the bootstrap distribution and its corresponding normal quantile plot for a variable of interest.

Usage

boot.plots(object, comp = object$ncomp, parm = NULL,
           type = c("coefs", "weights", "loadings"))

Arguments

object

an object of class "mvdareg", i.e., a plsFit.

comp

latent variable from which to generate the bootstrap distribution for a specific parameter

parm

a parameter for which to generate the bootstrap distribution

type

input parameter vector

Details

The function generates the bootstrap distribution and normal quantile plot for a bootstrapped mvdareg model given validation = "oob" for type = c("coefs", "weights", "loadings"). If parm = NULL a paramater is chosen at random.

Value

The output of boot.plots is a histogram of the bootstrap distribution and the corresponding normal quantile plot.

Examples

data(Penta)
## Number of bootstraps set to 300 to demonstrate flexibility
## Use a minimum of 1000 (default) for results that support bootstraping
mod1 <- plsFit(log.RAI ~., scale = TRUE, data = Penta[, -1],
               ncomp = 2, validation = "oob", boots = 300)
boot.plots(mod1, type = "coefs", parm = NULL)
