BMA (version 3.12)

orderplot: Orderplot of iBMA objects

Description

This function displays a plot showing the selection and rejection of variables being considered in an iterated Bayesian model averaging variable selection procedure.

Usage

orderplot(x, ...)

synopsis

orderplot(x, ...)

Details

The x-axis represents iterations, the y-axis variables. For each variable, a dot in the far left indicates that the variable has not yet been examined, a black line indicates the variable has been examined and dropped, the start of the line represents when the variable was first examined, the end represents when the variable was dropped. A blue line represents a variable that is still in the selected set of variables. If the iterations have completed then the blue lines end with blue dots, representing the final set of variables selected.
