bct | R Documentation |
Computes the Box-Cox transform of the data for a given value of lambda. Includes the scaling factor.
bct(y, lambda)
y |
Vector of data to be transformed. |
lambda |
Scalar exponent for transform (1 is linear, 0 is log). |
bct
computes the Box-Cox family of transforms: y = (y^lambda -
1)/(lambda*gm^(lambda-1)), where gm is the geometric mean of the y's.
returns log(y)*gm when lambda equals 0.
A vector of the same length as y with the corresponding transformed values.
