compareIntervals: Plot fitted intervals for each expert

Description

Following elicitation of distributions from individual experts, plot fitted probability intervals for each expert.

Usage

compareIntervals(
  fit,
  interval = 0.95,
  dist = "best",
  fs = 12,
  xlab = "x",
  ylab = "expert",
  showDist = TRUE
)

Arguments

fit

An object of class elicitation

interval

The probability p for each interval (i.e. the fitted probability for each expert that the displayed interval contains the uncertain quantity will be p)

dist

The distribution fitted to each expert's probabilities. Options are "normal", "t", "skewnormal", "gamma", "lognormal", "logt","beta", "mirrorgamma", "mirrorlognormal", "mirrorlogt" "hist" (for a histogram fit), and "best" (for best fitting). Can be a vector if different distributions are desired for each expert.

fs

font size used in the plot.

xlab

A string or expression giving the x-axis label.

ylab

A string or expression giving the y-axis label.

showDist

TRUE/FALSE for reporting distributions used for each expert

Examples

if (FALSE) {
v <- matrix(c(30, 40, 50, 20, 25, 35, 40, 50, 60, 35, 40, 50), 3, 4)
p <- c(0.25, 0.5, 0.75)
myfit <- fitdist(vals = v, probs = p, lower = 0, upper = 100)
compareIntervals(myfit, interval = 0.5)
}
