scatter.smooth {stats} | R Documentation |
Plot and add a smooth curve computed by loess
to a scatter plot.
scatter.smooth(x, y = NULL, span = 2/3, degree = 1, family = c("symmetric", "gaussian"), xlab = NULL, ylab = NULL, ylim = range(y, prediction$y, na.rm = TRUE), evaluation = 50, ...) loess.smooth(x, y, span = 2/3, degree = 1, family = c("symmetric", "gaussian"), evaluation = 50, ...)
x,y |
the x and y arguments provide the x and y
coordinates for the plot. Any reasonable way of defining the
coordinates is acceptable. See the function xy.coords
for details. |
span |
smoothness parameter for loess . |
degree |
degree of local polynomial used. |
family |
if "gaussian" fitting is by least-squares, and if
family="symmetric" a re-descending M estimator is used. |
xlab |
label for x axis. |
ylab |
label for y axis. |
ylim |
the y limits of the plot. |
evaluation |
number of points at which to evaluate the smooth curve. |
... |
graphical parameters. |
loess.smooth
is an auxiliary function which evaluates the
loess
smooth at evaluation
equally spaced points
covering the range of x
.
For scatter.smooth
, none.
For loess.smooth
, a list with two components, x
(the
grid of evaluation points) and y
(the smoothed values at the
grid points).
