R: Methods for Function 'plot' in Package 'stats4'

plot-methods {stats4} | R Documentation

## Methods for Function `plot` in Package stats4

### Description

Plot profile likelihoods for `"mle"` objects.

### Usage

    ## S4 method for signature 'profile.mle,missing'
    plot(x, levels, conf = c(99, 95, 90, 80, 50)/100, nseg = 50,
         absVal = TRUE, ...)

### Arguments

`x` | an object of class `"profile.mle"`
`levels` | levels, on the scale of the absolute value of a t statistic, at which to interpolate intervals. Usually `conf` is used instead of giving `levels` explicitly.
`conf` | a numeric vector of confidence levels for profile-based confidence intervals on the parameters.
`nseg` | an integer value giving the number of segments to use in the spline interpolation of the profile t curves.
`absVal` | a logical value indicating whether or not the plots should be on the scale of the absolute value of the profile t. Defaults to `TRUE`.
`...` | other arguments to the `plot` function can be passed here.

### Methods

`signature(x = "ANY", y = "ANY")`

  Generic function: see `plot`.

`signature(x = "profile.mle", y = "missing")`

  Plot likelihood profiles for `x`.
