whit2: Weighted Whittaker smoothing with a second order finite difference penalty

Description

This function smoothes signals with a finite difference penalty of order 2. This function is modified from ptw package.

Usage

whit2(y, lambda, w = rep(1, ny))

Arguments

y

signal to be smoothed: a vector

lambda

smoothing parameter: larger values lead to more smoothing

w

weights: a vector of same length as y. Default weights are equal to one

Value

A numeric vector, smoothed signal.
