Plots date estimates.
plotDate(object, ...)# S4 method for DateModel
plotDate(object, type = c("event", "accumulation"),
select = 1, n = 500)
Further arguments passed to other methods.
A character string or vector of character strings
indicating the modelled dates to be plotted. It must be one or both
(default) of event and accumulation. Any unambiguous substring
can be given.
A length-one non-negative numeric vector giving the
desired length of the vector of quantiles for density computation.
Plots the two probability estimate density curves of archaeological assembalge dates (event and accumulation dates; Bellanger and Husi 2012).
The estimated probability density of an event date is approached by a normal distribution. The distribution of the accumulation time of each context is approached by a Gaussian mixture.
The event date is plotted as a line, while the accumulation time is shown as a grey filled area.
