This function plots centiles curves for separate ranges of the unique explanatory variable x.
It is similar to the centiles
function but the range of x is split at a user defined values xcut.point
into r separate ranges.
The functions also tabulates the sample percentages below each centile curve for each of the r ranges of x
(for comparison with the model percentage given by cent)
The model should have only one explanatory variable.
centiles.split(obj, xvar, xcut.points = NULL, n.inter = 4,
cent = c(0.4, 2, 10, 25, 50, 75, 90, 98, 99.6),
legend = FALSE, main = NULL, main.gsub = "@",
ylab = "y", xlab = "x", ylim = NULL, overlap = 0,
save = TRUE, plot = TRUE, ...)
Centile plots are produced and the sample centiles below each centile curve for each of the r ranges of x can be saved into a matrix.
a fitted gamlss object from fitting a gamlss continuous distribution
the unique explanatory variable
the x-axis cut off points e.g. c(20,30)
. If xcut.points=NULL
then the n.inter
argument is activated
if xcut.points=NULL
this argument gives the number of intervals in which the x-variable will be split, with default 4
a vector with elements the % centile values for which the centile curves are to be evaluated
whether a legend is required in the plots or not, the default is legent=FALSE
the main title as character. If NULL the default title (shown the intervals) is shown
if the main.gsub
(with default "@") appears in the main
title then it is substituted with the default title.
the y-variable label
the x-variable label
the range of the y-variable axis
how much overlapping in the xvar
intervals. Default value is overlap=0
for non overlapping intervals
whether to save the sample percentages or not with default equal to TRUE
.
In this case the functions produce a matrix giving the sample percentages for each interval
whether to plot the centles. This option is useful if the sample statistics only are to be used
