Estimates which intervals in a dataset are fundamental intervals, i.e. an interval not containing a missed arrival observation
fundamental(x, conf.level = 0.9)
object inheriting from class intRvals
, usually a result of a call to estinterval
confidence level for identifying intervals as fundamental
logical atomic vector of the same length as x$data
This functions thus determines for each interval x$data
whether it has a probabiliy > conf.level
to be
a fundamental interval, given the model fit generated by estinterval for object x
.
The fit of an intRvals
object gives the decomposition of the likelihood of an interval observation
into partial likelihoods \(\phi_{obs}(x,i | \mu, \sigma, p)\) (see intervalpdf).
If the amplitude of the partial likelihood with i=0 (i.e. the likelihood component without missed observations)
is at least a proportion conf.level
of the sum of all terms i=0..N,
an interval is considered to be fundamental (not containing a missed event observation).
