Construct B-spline basis This is an internal function which constructs B-spline basis to be used in pclm estimation

Description

Construct B-spline basis This is an internal function which constructs B-spline basis to be used in pclm estimation

Usage

build_B_spline_basis(X, Y, kr, deg, diff, type)

Arguments

X	vector with ages
Y	vector with years
kr	Knot ratio. Number of internal intervals used for defining 1 knot in B-spline basis construction. See MortSmooth_bbase.
deg	Degree of the splines needed to create equally-spaced B-splines basis over an abscissa of data.
diff	An integer indicating the order of differences of the components of PCLM coefficients. Default value: 2.
type	Type of PCLM model. Options: "1D", "2D" for univariate and two-dimensional model respectively.
