R: Principal Differential Analysis

## Principal Differential Analysis

### Description

Principal differential analysis (PDA) estimates a system of n linear differential equations that define functions that fit the data and their derivatives. There is an equation in the system for each variable.

Each equation has on its right side the highest order derivative that is used, and the order of this derivative, m_j, j=1,...,n can vary over equations.

On the left side of equation is a linear combination of all the variables and all the derivatives of these variables up to order one less than the order m_j of the highest derivative.

In addition, the right side may contain linear combinations of forcing functions as well, with the number of forcing functions varying over equations.

The linear combinations are defined by weighting functions multiplying each variable, derivative, and forcing function in the equation. These weighting functions may be constant or vary over time. They are each represented by a functional parameter object, specifying a basis for an expansion of a coefficient, a linear differential operator for smoothing purposes, a smoothing parameter value, and a logical variable indicating whether the function is to be estimated, or kept fixed.

### Usage

    pda.fd(xfdlist, bwtlist=NULL,
           awtlist=NULL, ufdlist=NULL, nfine=501, returnMatrix=FALSE)

### Arguments

`xfdlist` | a list whose members are functional data objects representing each variable in the system of differential equations. Each of these objects contain one or more curves to be represented by the corresponding differential equation. The length of the list is equal to the number of differential equations. The number N of replications must be the same for each member functional data object.
`bwtlist` | this argument contains the weight coefficients that multiply, in the right side of each equation, all the variables in the system, and all their derivatives, where the derivatives are used up to one less than the order of the variable. This argument has, in general, a three-level structure, defined by a three-level hierarchy of list objects. At the top level, the argument is a single list of length equal to the number of variables. Each component of this list is itself a list At the second level, each component of the top level list is itself a list, also of length equal to the number of variables. At the third and bottom level, each component of a second level list is a list of length equal to the number of orders of derivatives appearing on the right side of the equation, including the variable itself, a derivative of order 0. If m indicates the order of the equation, that is the order of the derivative on the left side, then this list is length m. The components in the third level lists are functional parameter objects defining estimates for weight functions. For a first order equation, for example, m = 1 and the single component in each list contains a weight function for the variable. Since each equation has a term involving each variable in the system, a system of first order equations will have n^2 at the third level of this structure. There MUST be a component for each weight function, even if the corresponding term does not appear in the equation. In the case of a missing term, the corresponding component can be `NULL`, and it will be treated as a coefficient fixed at 0. However, in the case of a single differential equation, `bwtlist` can be given a simpler structure, since in this case only m coefficients are required. Therefore, for a single equation, `bwtlist` can be a list of length m with each component containing a functional parameter object for the corresponding derivative.
`awtlist` | a two-level list containing weight functions for forcing functions. In addition to terms in each of the equations involving terms corresponding to each derivative of each variable in the system, each equation can also have a contribution from one or more exogenous variables, often called forcing functions. This argument defines the weights multiplying these forcing functions, and is a list of length n, the number of variables. Each component of this is is in turn a list, each component of which contains a functional parameter object defining a weight function for a forcing function. If there are no forcing functions for an equation, this list can be `NULL`. If none of the equations involve forcing functions, `awtlist` can be `NULL`, which is its default value if it is not in the argument list.
`ufdlist` | a two-level list containing forcing functions. This list structure is identical to that for `awtlist`, the only difference being that the components in the second level contain functional data objects for the forcing functions, rather than functional parameter objects.
`nfine` | a number of values for a fine mesh. The estimation of the differential equation involves discrete numerical quadrature estimates of integrals, and these require that functions be evaluated at a fine mesh of values of the argument. This argument defines the number to use. The default value of 501 is reset to five times the largest number of basis functions used to represent any variable in the system, if this number is larger.
`returnMatrix` | logical: If TRUE, a two-dimensional is returned using a special class from the Matrix package.

### Value

an object of class `pda.fd`, being a list with the following components:

`bwtlist` | a list array of the same dimensions as the corresponding argument, containing the estimated or fixed weight functions defining the system of linear differential equations.
`resfdlist` | a list of length equal to the number of variables or equations. Each members is a functional data object giving the residual functions or forcing functions defined as the left side of the equation (the derivative of order m of a variable) minus the linear fit on the right side. The number of replicates for each residual functional data object is the same as that for the variables.
`awtlist` | a list of the same dimensions as the corresponding argument. Each member is an estimated or fixed weighting function for a forcing function.
