levelcross: levelcross

In vancebee/MarkovSCD:

Description

Calculate an empirical level-crossing function to assist in the selection of state boundaries.

Usage

levelcross(tseries, evalpts = NULL, npts = 100, lag=1)

Arguments

tseries	A vector of values defining a time series. The times at which these values were collected are not recorded, but knowledge of this feature will inform the selection of the lag.
evalpts	Optional; the points at which the level-crossing function is evaluated can be supplied. If not, evalpts will be automatically determined according to the min/max of tseries and npts.
npts	If evalpts are not supplied, npts points evenly-spaced between the minimum and maximum of tseries will be used.
lag	Number of observations separating points that will be assessed for level crossing.

Value

A list consisting of two elements:

evalpts	Either the supplied or calculated points at which the level-crossing function is evaluated.
lvlcrs	A vector where each element corresponds to the proportion of the data that crossed the corresponding element of evalpts.
