df.residual.fRegress

Degrees of Freedom for Residuals from a Functional Regression

Description

Effective degrees of freedom for residuals, being the trace of the idempotent hat matrix transforming observations into residuals from the fit.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'fRegress'
df.residual(object, ...)

Arguments

`object`	Object of class inheriting from `fRegress`
`...`	additional arguments for other methods

Details

1. Determine N = number of observations

2. df.model <- object\$df

3. df.residual <- (N - df.model)

4. Add attributes

Value

The numeric value of the residual degrees-of-freedom extracted from object with the following attributes:

`nobs`	number of observations
`df.model`	effective degrees of freedom for the model, being the trace of the idempotent linear projection operator transforming the observations into their predictions per the model. This includes the intercept, so the 'degrees of freedom for the model' for many standard purposes that compare with a model with an estimated mean will be 1 less than this number.
