Description Usage Arguments Value See Also
The degree of roughness of an estimated function is controlled by a smoothing parameter $lambda$ that directly multiplies the penalty. However, it can be difficult to interpret or choose this value, and it is often easier to determine the roughness by choosing a value that is equivalent of the degrees of freedom used by the smoothing procedure. This function converts a multipler $lambda$ into a degrees of freedom value.
