R: Special Smooths in BAMLSS Formulae

s2 {bamlss} | R Documentation

## Special Smooths in BAMLSS Formulae

### Description

This is a simple wrapper function to define special smooth terms in BAMLSS formulae. The function calls the smooth term constructor function `s`. The return value of `s` is only slightly modified, such that function `bamlss.frame` identifies this term as a special term and uses the appropriate (internal) infrastructures.

This structure is useful when the model term structure is, e.g., not a linear combination of a design matrix and coefficients. See the example section of function `bfit` on how to use this setup.

### Usage

    s2(...)

### Arguments

`...` | Arguments passed to function `s`.

### Value

Slightly modified return value of function `s`.

### See Also

`bamlss`, `bamlss.frame`, `bamlss.formula`, `opt_bfit`

### Examples

    print(names(s(x)))
    print(names(s2(x)))
