Calculate a Confidence Region

Description

Calculates a confidence region. se.fit from predict.glm is multiplied by z and added or subtracted from fits to give hi and lo columns in return value. z is normal quantile for the one-tailed probablitity corresponding to conf, e.g. ~ 1.96 for conf = 0.95. If non-missing y is only 0 or 1, the model family is binomial and resulting confidence intervals are back-transformed using plogis.

Usage

region(
  x,
  y,
  family = if (all(y %in% 0:1, na.rm = TRUE)) "binomial" else "gaussian",
  length.out = 1000,
  conf = 0.95,
  ...
)

Arguments

x

x values

y

y values

family

gaussian by default, or binomial for all y either zero or 1

length.out

number of prediction points

conf

width of confidence interval; logical TRUE defaults to 0.95

...

passed to model

Value

data.frame with x, y, hi, lo at 1000 points
