Vector generalized linear models.

Keywords
classes
##### Objects from the Class

Objects can be created by calls of the form vglm(...).

##### Slots

In the following, $M$ is the number of linear predictors.

extra:

Object of class "list"; the extra argument on entry to vglm. This contains any extra information that might be needed by the family function.

family:

Object of class "vglmff". The family function.

iter:

Object of class "numeric". The number of IRLS iterations used.

predictors:

Object of class "matrix" with $M$ columns which holds the $M$ linear predictors.

call:

Object of class "call", from class  "vlm". The matched call.

coefficients:

Object of class "numeric", from class  "vlm". A named vector of coefficients.

contrasts:

Object of class "list", from class  "vlm". The contrasts used (if any).

control:

Object of class "list", from class  "vlm". A list of parameters for controlling the fitting process. See vglm.control for details.

criterion:

Object of class "list", from class  "vlm". List of convergence criterion evaluated at the final IRLS iteration.

df.residual:

Object of class "numeric", from class  "vlm". The residual degrees of freedom.

effects:

Object of class "numeric", from class  "vlm". The effects.

fitted.values:

Object of class "matrix", from class  "vlm". The fitted values.

post:

Object of class "list", from class  "vlm" where post-analysis results may be put.

preplot:

Object of class "list", from class  "vlm" used by plotvgam; the plotting parameters may be put here.

Object of class "matrix", from class  "vlm" holding the initially supplied weights.

qr:

Object of class "list", from class  "vlm". QR decomposition at the final iteration.

R:

Object of class "matrix", from class  "vlm". The R matrix in the QR decomposition used in the fitting.

##### Extends

Class "vlm", directly.

##### Methods

cdf

signature(object = "vglm"): cumulative distribution function. Applicable to, e.g., quantile regression and extreme value data models.

deplot

signature(object = "vglm"): Applicable to, e.g., quantile regression.

deviance

signature(object = "vglm"): deviance of the model (where applicable).

plot

signature(x = "vglm"): diagnostic plots.

predict

signature(object = "vglm"): extract the linear predictors or predict the linear predictors at a new data frame.

print

signature(x = "vglm"): short summary of the object.

qtplot

signature(object = "vglm"): quantile plot (only applicable to some models).

resid

signature(object = "vglm"): residuals. There are various types of these.

residuals

signature(object = "vglm"): residuals. Shorthand for resid.

rlplot

signature(object = "vglm"): return level plot. Useful for extreme value data models.

summary

signature(object = "vglm"): a more detailed summary of the object.
