Create an Exponential Basis

Create an Exponential Basis

DESCRIPTION:

Create an exponential basis object defining a set of exponential functions with rate constants in argument ratevec.

USAGE:

create.exponential.basis(rangeval=c(0, 1), nbasis=1, ratevec=1)

OPTIONAL ARGUMENTS:

rangeval
A vector of length 2 containing the initial and final values of the interval over which the functional data object can be evaluated.
nbasis
The number of exponential functions.
ratevec
A vector of length nbasis of rate constants defining basis functions of the form exp(rate*x).

VALUE:

A basis object with the type "expon".

DETAILS:

Exponential functions are of the type ebx where b is the rate constant. If b = 0, the constant function is defined.

EXAMPLES:

basisobj <- create.exponential.basis(c(0,5),3,c(0,-1,-5))
