Inspection calcultation of the optimum

Description

Function optimum.by.inspection perform an analysis of mem parameters to find the one that fits better a panel of experts inspection criterium.

To be written

Usage

optimum.by.inspection(
  i.data,
  i.param.values = seq(1, 5, 0.1),
  i.graph = F,
  i.graph.file = F,
  i.graph.file.name = "",
  i.graph.title = "",
  i.graph.subtitle = "",
  i.output = "."
)

Arguments

i.data	Data frame of input data.
i.param.values	values to use in the i.param value of memtiming.
i.graph	create a graph with the outputs (T/F).
i.graph.file	write the graph to a file.
i.graph.file.name	name of the output file.
i.graph.title	title of the graph.
i.graph.subtitle	subtitle of the graph.
i.output	output directory.

Value

optimum.by.inspection returns a list. An object of class mem is a list containing at least the following components:

optimum	optimum value.
optimum.data	Data related to the optimum value.
summary.data	Data for all values tested.
inspection.data	Detailed results of each iteration.
