rsp: Distribution-Free Phase I Analysis of Univariate Data based on Recursive Segmentation and Permutation

Description

rsp implements the Phase I method described in Capizzi and Masarotto (2013).

Usage

rsp(y, plot = TRUE, L = 1000, seed = 11642257, alpha = 0.05,
    maxsteps = min(50, round(NROW(y)/15)), lmin = max(5, min(10, round(NROW(y)/10))))

Value

A list with elements

p

the adjusted p-values

stat

the summary statistics (a mx2 matrix)

fitted

the (possibly time-variant) estimates of the process level and scale (a mx2 matrix).

Arguments

y

Phase I data; y can be either (i) a vector or a 1xm matrix in the case of individual observations or (ii) a nxm matrix for subgrouped data (n observations gathered at m time points).

plot

logical; if TRUE, the diagnostic plot is displayed.

L

integer; the number of random permutations used to compute the p-values.

seed

positive integer; if not NA, the RNG's state is resetted using seed. The current .Random.seed will be preserved.

alpha

real; the significance level used to compute the level and scale estimates; if one of the p-values is greater than alpha, the corresponding estimate is a constant.

maxsteps

integer; the maximum number of step shifts which the procedure tries to detect.

lmin

integer; the minimum length of a step.
