##### Regression Influence Plot

This function creates a bubble plot of Studentized residuals by hat values, with the areas of the circles representing the observations proportional to Cook's distances. Vertical reference lines are drawn at twice and three times the average hat value, horizontal reference lines at -2, 0, and 2 on the Studentized-residual scale.

Keywords
regression
##### Usage
influencePlot(model, ...)

## S3 method for class 'lm':
influencePlot(model, scale=10,
xlab="Hat-Values", ylab="Studentized Residuals",
labels, id.method = "noteworthy",
id.n = if(id.method[1]=="identify") Inf else 0,
id.cex=1, id.col=palette()[1], ...)
##### Arguments
model
a linear or generalized-linear model.
scale
a factor to adjust the size of the circles.
xlab, ylab
axis labels.
labels, id.method, id.n, id.cex, id.col
settings for labelling points; see link{showLabels} for details. To omit point labelling, set id.n=0, the default. The default id.method="noteworthy" is used only in this function and indicates setting labels for
...
arguments to pass to the plot and points functions.
##### Value

• If points are identified, returns a data frame with the hat values, Studentized residuals and Cook's distance of the identified points. If no points are identified, nothing is returned. This function is primarily used for its side-effect of drawing a plot.
