P.penalty: Penalty matrix for higher order differences

Description

This function computes the matrix that penalizes the higher order differences.

Usage

P.penalty(tt,P=c(0,0,1))

Arguments

tt

vector of the n discretization points or argvals.

P

vector of coefficients with the order of the differences. Default value P=c(0,0,1) penalizes the second order difference.

Value

penalty matrix of size sum(n) x sum(n)

Details

For example, if P=c(0,1,2), the function return the penalty matrix the second order difference of a vector \(tt\). That is $$v^T P_j tt= \sum_{i=3} ^{n} (\Delta tt_i) ^2$$ where $$\Delta tt_i= tt_i -2 tt_{i-1} + tt_{i-2}$$ is the second order difference. More details can be found in Kraemer, Boulesteix, and Tutz (2008).
