gbm.plot.fits: gbm plot fitted values

In dismo: Species Distribution Modeling

gbm plot fitted values

Description

Plots the fitted values from a gbm object returned by any of the model fitting options. This can give a more reliable guide to the shape of the fitted surface than can be obtained from the individual functions, particularly when predictor variables are correlated and/or samples are unevenly distributed in environmental space. Allows masking out of absences to enable focus on sites with high predicted values.

Usage

gbm.plot.fits(gbm.object, v=0, mask.presence=FALSE, use.factor=FALSE )

Arguments

gbm.object	a gbm object
v	variable numbers to be plotted (if 0 then all are plotted)
mask.presence	Logical. If TRUE, the function only plots fitted values for presences
use.factor	Logical. If TRUE, forces to use quicker printing box and whisker plot
