This generic function returns one or more cut off values that are guaranteed to have an effect on the model passed to the function when a simplification procedure is applied (in general a tree pruning operation as provided by prune()).

Usage

cutoff(model, ...)

Arguments

model

a model.

pc <- powerconsumption[powerconsumption$week == 5, ]
dts <- cut(pc$active_power, breaks = c(0, quantile(pc$active_power, probs = c(0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1))))
model <- vlmc(dts)
draw(model)
model_cuts <- cutoff(model)
model_2 <- prune(model, model_cuts[2])
