Auxilliary for controlling GAM fitting
Auxiliary function as user interface for 'gam' fitting. Typically only used when calling 'gam' or 'gam.fit'.
gam.control(epsilon=1e-07, bf.epsilon = 1e-07, maxit=30, bf.maxit = 30, trace=FALSE,...)
epsilon |
convergence threshold for local scoring iterations |
bf.epsilon |
convergence threshold for backfitting iterations |
maxit |
maximum number of local scoring iterations |
bf.maxit |
maximum number of backfitting iterations |
trace |
should iteration details be printed while |
... |
Placemark for additional arguments |
a list is returned, consisting of the five parameters, conveniently packaged up to supply the control argument to gam. The values for gam.control can be supplied directly in a call to gam; these are then filtered through gam.control inside gam.

## Not run: gam(formula, family, control = gam.control(bf.maxit=15)) ## Not run: gam(formula, family, bf.maxit = 15) # these are equivalent
