| xbinning {saemix} | R Documentation |
Internal functions used to produce prediction intervals (from the npde package)
Description
Functions used by plot functions to define the boundaries of the bins on the X-axis
Usage
xbinning(xvec, plot.opt, verbose = FALSE)
Arguments
xvec |
a vector of values for the X-axis of the plot |
plot.opt |
graphical options |
verbose |
boolean (defaults to FALSE). If TRUE, a table showing how the binning was performed |
Details
These functions are normally not called by the end-user.
Value
a list with 3 elements, xgrp (the number of the bin associated with each element of xvec), xcent (a named vector containing the mean of the elements of xvec contained in each bin; the name of the bin is the interval), and xgroup (a vector with the group associated to each element of xvec after binning) If verbose is TRUE, a table showing the bins is shown, giving the interval of xvec associated with each bin, the mean value of xvec in each bin, and the number of observations
