Generalised (Pseudo) R-squared for GAMLSS models

Description

This function gives the generalised R-squared of Nagelkerke (1991) for a GAMLSS model.

Usage

Rsq(object, type = c("Cox Snell","Cragg Uhler","both"))

Arguments

object

a GAMLSS object

type

which definition of R squared. Can be the "Cox Snell" or the Nagelkerke, "Cragg Uhler" or "both".

Details

The Rsq() function uses the definition for R-squared:

R^2=1- \left(\frac{L(0)}{L(\hat{\theta})}\right)^(2/n)

where L(0) is the null model (only a constant is fitted to all parameters) and L(\hat{\theta}) is the current fitted model. This definition sometimes is referred to as the Cox & Snell R-squared. The Nagelkerke /Cragg & Uhler's definition divides the above with

1- L(0)^(2/n)

Value

The Rsq() produces a single value if type="Cox Snell" or "Cragg Uhler" and a list if type="both".

Note

The null model is fitted using the function gamlssML() which can create warning messages
