ma.vector: Calculation of moving average for a vector

Description

This functions calculates the moving average for a vector.

Usage

ma.vector(A,M,av="median",delta=50)

Arguments

A

vector of predictor to be used for sorting

M

vector of variable to be averaged

av

averaging by mean or median (default)

delta

even integer determining the size of the sliding window (2*delta+1.)

Value

M

Details

The function ma.vector first sorts M according to the corresponding values of A. Subsequently, a moving average is calculated with window size (2*delta+1). The values for the moving average are set to zero if the corresponding window extends over the boarder of the vector M.
