lcvplot

PURPOSE ^

SYNOPSIS ^

function g=lcvplot(alpha,varargin)

DESCRIPTION ^

 Computes and plots the Likelihood Cross-Validation score (LCV)
 for local fits with different smoothing parameters.

 The first argument to lcvplot(), alpha, should be a matrix with one
 or two columns (first column = nearest neighbor component, second
 column = constant component). Each row of this matrix is, in turn,
 passed as the 'alpha' argument to lcv() (and locfit()). The results
 are stored in a matrix, and LCV score ploted against the degrees of
 freedom.
