binning {aws}R Documentation

Binning in 1D, 2D or 3D

Description

The function performs a binning in 1D, 2D or 3D.

Usage

binning(x, y, nbins, xrange = NULL)

Arguments

x design matrix, dimension n x d, d %in% 1:3.
y either a response vector of length n or NULL
nbins vector of length d containing number of bins for each dimension, may be set to NULL
xrange range for endpoints of bins for each dimension, either matrix of dimension 2 x d or NULL. xrange is increased if the cube defined does not contain all design points.

Value

A list with components

x matrix of coordinates of non-empty bin centers
x.freq number of observations in nonempty bins
midpoints.x1 Bin centers in dimension 1
midpoints.x2 if d>1 Bin centers in dimension 2
midpoints.x3 if d>2 Bin centers in dimension 3
breaks.x1 Break points dimension 1
breaks.x2 if d>1 Break points dimension 2
breaks.x3 if d>2 Break points dimension 3
table.freq number of observations per bin
means if !is.null(y) mean of y in non-empty bins
devs if !is.null(y) standard deviations of y in non-empty bins

Note

This function has been adapted from the code of function binning in package sm.
