Interval-wise testing procedure for testing functional-on-scalar linear models

Description

The function is used to fit and test functional linear models. It can be used to carry out regression, and analysis of variance. It implements the interval-wise testing procedure (IWT) for testing the significance of the effects of scalar covariates on a functional population.

Usage

IWTlm(formula, B = 1000, method = "residuals", dx = NULL, recycle = TRUE)

Arguments

formula

An object of class "formula" (or one that can be coerced to that class): a symbolic description of the model to be fitted. Example: y ~ A + B where: y is a matrix of dimension n * p containing the point-wise evaluations of the n functional data on p points or an object of class fd (see fda package) containing the functional data set A, B are n-dimensional vectors containing the values of two covariates. Covariates may be either scalar or factors.

B

The number of iterations of the MC algorithm to evaluate the p-values of the permutation tests. The defualt is B=1000.

method

Permutation method used to calculate the p-value of permutation tests. Choose "residuals" for the permutations of residuals under the reduced model, according to the Freedman and Lane scheme, and "responses" for the permutation of the responses, according to the Manly scheme.

dx

step size for the point-wise evaluations of functional data. dx is only used ia an object of class 'fd' is provided as response in the formula.

recycle

flag specifying whether the recycled version of IWT has to be used.

Value

IWTlm returns an object of class "IWTlm". The function summary is used to obtain and print a summary of the results. An object of class "ITPlm" is a list containing at least the following components:

call

call of the function.

design_matrix

design matrix of the linear model.

unadjusted_pval_F

unadjusted p-value function of the F test.

pval_matrix_F

Matrix of dimensions c(p,p) of the p-values of the interval-wise F-tests. The element (i,j) of matrix pval_matrix_F contains the p-value of the test on interval (j,j+1,...,j+(p-i)).

adjusted_pval_F

adjusted p-value function of the F test.

unadjusted_pval_part

unadjusted p-value functions of the functional t-tests on each covariate, separately (rows) on each domain point (columns).

pval_matrix_part

Array of dimensions c(L+1,p,p) of the p-values of the interval-wise t-tests on covariates. The element (l,i,j) of array pval_matrix_part contains the p-value of the test of covariate l on interval (j,j+1,...,j+(p-i)).

adjusted_pval_part

adjusted p-values of the functional t-tests on each covariate (rows) on each domain point (columns).

data.eval

evaluation of functional data.

coeff.regr.eval

evaluation of the regression coefficients.

fitted.eval

evaluation of the fitted values.

residuals.eval

evaluation of the residuals.

R2.eval

evaluation of the functional R-suared.
