loess_auto: Perform an automatically loess based smoothing of a time series

Description

Perform an automatically loess based smoothing of a time series. The local polynomial regression with automatic smoothing parameter selection is based on an optimization using the 'aicc' bias-corrected 'AIC' criterion and the 'gcv' generalized cross-validation criterion.

Usage

loess_auto(
  time_series = NULL,
  genplot = FALSE,
  print_span = FALSE,
  keep_editable = FALSE
)

Value

A matrix with 3 columns. The first column is depth/time. The second column is the smoothed curve. The third column is difference between the original curve and the smoothed curve.

Arguments

time_series

Input is a time series with the first column being depth or time and the second column being a proxy

genplot

Option to generate plot Default=TRUE.
The plot will consist of the original signal in blue, the smoothed plot is displayed in black and the + and - 1 sd bounds of the smoothing are displayed in red.

print_span

Print span length as a fraction of the total length of the record.

keep_editable

Keep option to add extra features after plotting Default=FALSE

Author

Based on the the loess.as function of the 'fANCOVA' R package.
