getUDummyMatForOneVec: Get U-dummy matrix for one-dimensional vector

In kazuzowo/aglm-LVar: Accurate Generalized Linear Model (AGLM)

Description

Get U-dummy matrix for one-dimensional vector

Usage

getUDummyMatForOneVec(x_vec, levels = NULL, drop_last = TRUE,
  only_info = FALSE)

Arguments

x_vec	A non-numeric vector to be converted into dummy matrix.
levels	A character vector indicates unique set of possible values. If NULL, all the unique values of x_vec are used.
drop_last	A boolean value. If TRUE, the last column of dummy matrix is dropped to avoid colinear
only_info	A bboolean value. If TRUE, actual creation of dummy matrix is omitted.

Value

a list with two members levels and dummy_mat.

• levels: Same as input

• drop_last: Same as input

• dummy_mat: An integer matrix with size (length of x_vec, length of levels or minus 1 when drop_last=TRUE). dummy_mat[i, j] is 1 if and only if x_vec[i] == levels[j], and 0 otherwise. Omitted if only_info=TRUE
