plotmix.pois: Histogram of the observations and the fitted probability mass function of a mixture of Poissons

Description

Plot the histogram of the observations and the fitted probability mass function of a mixture of Poissons.

Usage

plotmix.pois(x, theta, hist = 1, comp = TRUE, h = 1, main = "", xlab = "Observations", ylab = "")

Arguments

x

data, can be either a vector or a matrix with the 1st column being the observed values and the 2nd column being the corresponding frequencies.

theta

parameter values, output of emtest.pois or pmle.pois, or a vector of parameter values, include mixing proportions and component parameters.

hist

style of histogram. hist = 0,1,2 are permitted. hist = 0 means no histogram, hist = 1,2 give two styles, default value: hist = 1.

comp

a parameter specifies the form of the component probability functions in the graph. The component probability functions will be plotted only if the order is 3 or lower. comp = T switches on the component probability functions in the graph. If comp = F, no component probability functions will be included. default value: comp = T.

h

a number between 0 and 1, specifying the height of the probability function, default value: h=1 (complete probability function).

main

title of graph, default value: main = "".

xlab

label of x-axis, default value: xlab = "Observations".

ylab

label of y-axis, default value: ylab = "".

Value

Return the histogram of the observations and the plot of the fitted probability mass function.

Examples

#generate a random sample from a 2 component Poisson mixture, 
#plot the histogram of the observations and the probability mass function with a set of 
#given parameters.
x <- rmix.pois(200,c(0.3,0.7),c(2,5))
theta <- c(0.25,0.75,1.8,5.2)
