smooth.construct.ms.smooth.spec: Smooth constructor for monotonic P-splines

In bamlss: Bayesian Additive Models for Location, Scale, and Shape (and Beyond)

Smooth constructor for monotonic P-splines

Description

The function sets up a smooth term for shape constraint estimation of P-spline model terms. Note that this currently only works using boosting and backfitting.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'ms.smooth.spec'
smooth.construct(object, data, knots, ...)

Arguments

object	Either a smooth specification object, or object of class "bamlss", "bamlss.frame", "bamlss.formula" or "bamlss.terms". For smooth specification objects, see function smooth.construct.
data	A data frame or list, see also see function smooth.construct.
knots	See function smooth.construct.
...	Arguments passed to the smooth term constructor functions.

Value

See function see smooth.construct.

Examples

## Not run: ## Generate some data.
set.seed(123)

n <- 300
x <- runif(n, -2, 3)
y <- sin(x) + rnorm(n, sd = 0.1)

d <- data.frame("y" = y, "x" = x)

## Increasing: constr = 1.
## Decreasing: constr = 2.
b <- bamlss(y ~ s2(x,bs="ms",xt=list(constr=1)),
  data = d, optimizer = opt_bfit, sampler = sam_MVNORM)

## Predict and plot.
p <- predict(b, model = "mu", FUN = c95)
plot(y ~ x)
plot2d(p ~ x, add = TRUE, col.lines = 4, lwd = 2)

## End(Not run)
