Does anyone know of a function that turns the coefficients of lm( y~ poly(x1 , x2, degree=2))
into something that can be interpreted easily. I was think along the lines of the matrix representation of quadratic forms: (x-mu)'A(x-mu) +k , and finding the eigenvectors/values of A, and the vector mu, but anything that allows me to visualise a contour plot would be great.
