post:

Object of class "list", from class "vlm" where post-analysis results may be put.

preplot:

Object of class "list", from class "vlm" used by plotvgam; the plotting parameters may be put here.

prior.weights:

Object of class "matrix", from class "vlm" holding the initially supplied weights.

qr:

Object of class "list", from class "vlm". QR decomposition at the final iteration.

R:

Object of class "matrix", from class "vlm". The R matrix in the QR decomposition used in the fitting.

Methods

cdf

signature(object = "vglm"): cumulative distribution function. Applicable to, e.g., quantile regression and extreme value data models.

deplot

signature(object = "vglm"): Applicable to, e.g., quantile regression.

deviance

signature(object = "vglm"): deviance of the model (where applicable).

plot

signature(x = "vglm"): diagnostic plots.

predict

signature(object = "vglm"): extract the linear predictors or predict the linear predictors at a new data frame.

print

signature(x = "vglm"): short summary of the object.

qtplot

signature(object = "vglm"): quantile plot (only applicable to some models).

resid

signature(object = "vglm"): residuals. There are various types of these.

residuals

signature(object = "vglm"): residuals. Shorthand for resid.

rlplot

signature(object = "vglm"): return level plot. Useful for extreme value data models.

summary

signature(object = "vglm"): a more detailed summary of the object.
