Shape constrained additive models
Description
Routines for generalized additive modelling under shape
constraints on the component functions of the linear predictor.
Models can contain multiple shape constrained (univariate
and/or bivariate) and unconstrained terms. The routines of
mgcv(gam) package are used for setting up the model matrix,
printing and plotting the results. Penalized likelihood
maximization based on Newton-Raphson method to fit a model with
multiple smoothing parameter selection by GCV or UBRE/AIC.
