Estimate Statistics
Description
Support function for computing statistics for left-censored data.
Usage
sdlFill(x, method = "fill", alpha = 0.4)
Arguments
x
the data to estimate, Missing values permitted and ignored.
Must be an object of class "lcens," a numeric vector, or the output from censpp.
method
the method to use, either "fill" or "log fill"
alpha
the offset for plotting postion (not used, required for other methods).
Value
A list containing the mean and standard deviation, filled in
values for the censored values, and the maximum censor level.
Note
This function uses the method of Gleit (1985). That method computes
the mean and standard deviation of the data, estimates synthetic values for
the censored values using a method similar to ROS, and repeats the process until the
mean and standard deviation stabilize.
