RE: [R] Smooth monotone estimation on R

Browsing over the FDA book, I can not find any discussion of monotone
smoothing.

 Hola!
 
 Experimenting a little, package fda seems very much under 
 development, 
 and help pages are definitely not finished.
 It would certainly help to read the book functional data 
 analysis by 
 the author of fda, which is in our library.
 On the other hand package mgcv is more mature, so it would 
 seem easier 
 to use that.
 
 It is not totally automatic, but the example
 library(mgcv)
 example(mono.con)
 
 has everything necessary to get started.

 Thanks again, Assaf

RE: [R] Smooth monotone estimation on R

2004-07-14 Thread Eliyahu-Oron
Andy, Kjetil, hi,

I figured out how to run this, after visiting Jim Ramsay's FDA webpage
example on monotone smoothing:
http://ego.psych.mcgill.ca/misc/fda/ex-growth-d1.html

The code there is Matlab, using very similar names to the R names.

First one needs to create a 'blank' B-spline object (using
create.bspline.basis(), then data2fd() with a 'blank' data vector of, say,
zeros).
Then this object is used as the 'Wfdobj' argument in 'smooth.monotone()'.
The smoothing spline version (lambda=some positive constant) seems to work
better than non-penalized splines (lambda=0).
So the command would be
solution-smooth.monotone(x,y,Wfdobj=createdbspline,lambda=0.1)

The fit may be shown using
fitted-solution$beta[1]+solution$beta[2]*eval.monfd(xx,solution$Wfdobj).

eval.monfd() is a utility to perform the integration on the exponent of the
'embedded' B-spline object.

Algebraic details do appear in the 'smooth.monotone()' help, and also on the
webpage.

Ramsay's approach seems to be the one most 'popular' in literature at the
moment, so I'll probably use this package a lot over the next few weeks. If
someone can't access Jim Ramsay or some other 'FDA insider', you can
probably forward them to me regarding smooth.monotone().

Thanks so much again,

Assaf

I believe the `mgcv' package has facility for monotone splines.
