stretch_iq_bins: Adding Tolerance Buffer to outermost bins from Iterative...

In kmaurer/binsemble:

Description

New observations selected from the same population as the data used to build bin definitions may fall just outside the bins. If we wish to include nearby values we can either allow outer bins to be extended (this function) or to leave the outer bins unbounded.

Usage

stretch_iq_bins(iq_def, tol)

Arguments

iq_def	iterative quantile binning definition list
tol	vector of tolerance values to stretch each dimension for future binning

Value

updated binning definition with bins extended by tolerance values

Examples

iq_def <- iterative_quant_bin(data=iris, bin_cols=c("Sepal.Length","Sepal.Width","Petal.Width"),
                              nbins=c(3,2,2), output="both")
stretch_iq_def <- stretch_iq_bins(iq_def, tol = c(1,1,1))
iq_def$bin_def$bin_bounds
stretch_iq_def$bin_def$bin_bounds
