Provides single or multiple detrended transformed Owen's plot, Owen (1995), for a GAMLSS fitted objects or any other fitted object which has the method resid(). This is a diagnostic tool for checking whether the normalised quantile residuals are coming from a normal distribution or not. This could be true if the horizontal line is within the confidence intervals.

a GAMLSS fitted object or any other fitted object which has the method resid().
the explanatory variable against which the detrended Owen's plots will be plotted
if the object is not specified the residual vector can be given here
whether to use Owen (1995) or Jager and Wellner (2004) approximate formula
95 (default) or 99 percent confidence interval for the plots
he number of intervals in which the explanatory variable xvar will be cut
the x-axis cut off points e.g. c(20,30). If xcut.points=NULL then the n.inter argument is activated
how much overlapping in the xvar intervals. Default value is overlap=0 for non overlapping intervals
whether to show the x-variable intervals in the top of the graph, default is show.given=TRUE
the cex plotting parameter with default cex=1
the pch plotting parameter with default pch=21
whether the detrended empirical cdf should be plotted or not
for extra arguments

If the xvar argument is not specified then a single detrended Owen's plot is used, see Owen (1995). In this case the plot is a detrended nonparametric likelihood confidence band for a distribution function. That is, if the horizontal lines lies within the confidence band then the normalised residuals could have come from a Normal distribution and consequently the assumed response variable distribution is reasonable. If the xvar is specified then we have as many plots as n.iter. In this case the x-variable is cut into n.iter intervals with an equal number observations and detrended Owen's plots for each interval are plotted. This is a way of highlighting failures of the model within different ranges of the explanatory variable.
