cghseg (version 1.0.5)

alpha<-: Replace slot alpha

Description

changes slot alpha of a CGHoptions object

Arguments

.Object

an object of the CGHoptions class

Value

None

Details

CGHo["alpha"] sets the proportion of length of each profile that will be used for . If ni is the length of profile i then $$\code{uniKmax[[i]]} = \alpha n_i$$ The speed of execution of the method decreases with Kmax. Each Kmax must fulfill some conditions wrt CGHo: $$\code{uniKmax[[i]]} > \code{nblevels}$$ $$\code{uniKmax[[i]]}< n_i$$
