boxcox.geodata: Box-Cox transformation for geodata objects

Description

Method for Box-Cox transformation for objects of the class geodata assuming the data are independent. Computes and optionally plots profile log-likelihoods for the parameter of the Box-Cox simple power transformation \(y^lambda\).

Usage

# S3 method for geodata
boxcox(object, trend = "cte", ...)

Arguments

object

an object of the class geodata. See as.geodata.

trend

specifies the mean part of the model. See trend.spatial for further details. Defaults to "cte".

…

arguments to be passed for the function boxcox.

Value

A list of the lambda vector and the computed profile log-likelihood vector, invisibly if the result is plotted.

Details

This is just a wrapper for the function boxcox facilitating its usage with geodata objects.

Notice this assume independent observations which is typically not the case for geodata objects.

Examples

# NOT RUN {
