[R] need help on GAM

2004-10-12 Thread Liu Song
Get some question about the function gam. Suppose I have a semiparametric model, Y~x1+x2+s(z1). Using gam, how could I get the estimates for the parametric part and nonparametric part respectively? And another question: we could find the coefficients for both parametric term and nonparametric

Get some question about the function gam. Suppose I have a semiparametric model, Y~x1+x2+s(z1). Using gam, how could I get the estimates for the parametric part and nonparametric part respectively? For a gam object (called, b,say) fitted using the mgcv `gam' then coef(b) will extract the
