strip: Strip Fitted EVD Object of Everything but the Parameter Estimates

Description

Take any fevd object, regardless of estimation method, and return only a vector of the estimated parameters.

Usage

strip(x, use.names = TRUE, ...)
# S3 method for fevd
strip(x, use.names = TRUE, ...)

Value

numeric vector with the parameter estimates.

Arguments

x

An object of class “fevd”.

use.names

logical stating whether or not to keep the names attribute

...

For the Bayesian method, if an alternative function to taking the mean or posterior mode of the MCMC samples is used, then optional arguments may be passed. Otherwise, not used.

Examples

z <- revd(100, loc=20, scale=0.5, shape=-0.2)
fit <- fevd(z)
fit

strip( fit )
strip( fit, use.names = FALSE )

# Compare with ...
distill( fit )
distill( fit, cov = FALSE )

if (FALSE) {
data( "Fort" )
fit <- fevd(Prec, Fort, threshold=0.395,
    scale.fun=~sin(2 * pi * (year - 1900)/365.25) + 
        cos(2 * pi * (year - 1900)/365.25),
    type="PP", method="Bayesian", iter=1999, use.phi=TRUE, verbose=TRUE)

fit

strip( fit )
strip( fit, burn.in = 700 )
strip( fit, FUN = "postmode" )
