deviance: Smooth Model Deviance

Description

Returns the deviance from a fit smoothing spline (fit by ss), smooth model (fit by sm), or generalized smooth model (fit by gsm).

Usage

# S3 method for gsm
deviance(object, ...)
# S3 method for sm
deviance(object, ...)
# S3 method for ss
deviance(object, ...)

Value

Deviance of the model object.

Arguments

object

an object of class "gsm" output by the gsm function, "sm" output by the sm function, or "ss" output by the ss function

...

other arugments (currently ignored)

Details

For ss and sm objects, the deviance is caculated assuming iid Gaussian errors.

For gsm objects, the deviance is calculated by summing the squared deviance residuals, which are calculated using family(object)$dev.resid
