center.fd: Center Functional Data

Description

Subtract the pointwise mean from each of the functions in a functional data object; that is, to center them on the mean function.

Usage

center.fd(fdobj)

Value

a functional data object whose mean is zero.

Arguments

fdobj

a functional data object to be centered.
