R: Print a Nice "summary" of Robustness Weights

summarizeRobWeights {robustbase} | R Documentation

## Print a Nice "summary" of Robustness Weights

### Description

Print a nice “summary” about a numeric vector of robustness weights. Observations with weights around zero are marked as outliers.

### Usage

    summarizeRobWeights(w, digits = getOption("digits"),
                        header = "Robustness weights:",
     	            eps = 0.1 / length(w), eps1 = 1e-3, ...)

### Arguments

`w` | numeric vector of robustness weigths.
`digits` | digits to be used for `print`ing.
`header` | string to be printed as header line.
`eps` | numeric tolerance eps: values of `w` with |w[i]| < eps/n are said to be outliers.
`eps1` | numeric tolerance: values of `w` with |1 - w[i]| < eps1 are said to have weight ‘`~= 1`’.
`...` | potential further arguments, passed to `print()`.

### Value

none; the function is used for its side effect of printing.

The `summary` methods for `lmrob` and `glmrob` make use of `summarizeRobWeights()`.

Our methods for `weights()`, `weights.lmrob(*, type="robustness")` and `weights.glmrob(*, type="robustness")`.

### Examples

    w <- c(1,1,1,1,0,1,1,1,1,0,1,1,.9999,.99999, .5,.6,1e-12)
    summarizeRobWeights(w) # two outside ~= {0,1}
    summarizeRobWeights(w, eps1 = 5e-5)# now three outside {0,1}
