In brentonk/polywog-package: Bootstrapped Basis Regression with Oracle Model Selection

## Using occupational prestige data
data(Prestige, package = "carData")
Prestige <- transform(Prestige, income = income / 1000)

## Fit a polywog model
## (note: using low convergence threshold to shorten computation time of the
## example, *not* recommended in practice!)
set.seed(22)
fit1 <- polywog(prestige ~ education + income | type,
                data = Prestige,
                degree = 2,
                thresh = 1e-4)

## Compute marginal effects for all variables
me1 <- margEff(fit1)
summary(me1)  # type was included linearly, hence constant effects

## Plotting density of the results
plot(me1)

## Can do the same when just examining a single variable
me2 <- margEff(fit1, xvar = "income")
summary(me2)
plot(me2)
