Constrained Centre and Range Method

Description

Details

The Constrained Centre and Range method (CCRM) was proposed by Lima Neto and De Carvalho (2010) and fits two independent linear regression models on the midpoint and range of the intervals. In the Constrained Centre and Range Method, the estimative of the parameters of the range's model is based on inequality constraints. There is no constraints over the parameters estimates for the midpoint regression equation. The aim is to guarantee mathematical coherence between the predicted values of the lower and upper bounds of the response interval-valued variable Y, i.e., yL < yU.

coefficients.C

a named vector of coefficients for the Centre's explanatory variables.

coefficients.R

sigma.R

an estimative of the standard deviation for the Range's response variable.

df.C

df.R

fitted.values.l

fitted.values.u

the fitted values for the upper interval bound.

residuals.l

the ordinary residuals for the lower interval bound.

residuals.u

Centre Method

Description

cm is used to fit a linear regression model to symbolic interval-valued variables based on the centre method (Billard and Diday, 2000).

Usage

cm(formula1, formula2, data, ...)

Arguments

formula1

an object of class formula: a symbolic description of the model to be fitted.

formula2

an object of class formula: a symbolic description of the model to be fitted.

data

an optional data frame containing the variables in the model.

...

other arguments.

Details

Billard and Diday (2000) presented the first approach to fitting a linear regression model to symbolic interval data sets from a SDA of view. Their approach consists on fitting a linear regression model to the mid-points of the interval values assumed by the symbolic interval variables in the learning set and applies this model to the lower and upper bounds of the interval values of the independent symbolic interval variables to be predicted, respectively, the lower and upper bounds of the interval value of the dependent variable. The Centre Method is based on the minimization of the midpoint error. The lower and upper bounds of the dependent variable are predicted, respectively, from the lower and upper bounds of the independent variable using the same vector of parameters beta.

Value

cm returns an object of class "cm" including at least the following elements:

coefficients

a named vector of coefficients.

sigma

an estimate of standard deviation.

df

the residual degrees of freedom.

fitted.values.l

the fitted values for the lower interval bound.

fitted.valuues.u

the fitted values for the upper interval bound.

residuals.l

the ordinary residuals for the lower interval bound .

residuals.u

the ordinary residuals for the upper interval bound .

Note

formula1 must contain the lower limit of the symbolic interval-valued variables. formula2 contain the upper limit of the symbolic interval-valued variables.
