r - 将数据转变为常态。对于给定情况，最佳功能是什么？

Question

是否有一个函数或一个包允许寻找最佳(或最好的)变量转换以使模型的残差尽可能正常？

<小时/>

例如:

frml = formula(some_tranformation(A) ~ B+I(B^2)+B:C+C)
model = aov(formula, data=data)
shapiro.test(residuals(model))

是否有一个函数可以告诉我们优化残差正态性的函数some_transformation()是什么？

Answer 1

你的意思是像 Box-Cox 变换？

library(car)
m0 <- lm(cycles ~ len + amp + load, Wool)
plot(m0, which=2)

# Box Cox Method, univariate
summary(p1 <- powerTransform(m0))
# bcPower Transformation to Normality 
# 
#    Est.Power Std.Err. Wald Lower Bound Wald Upper Bound
# Y1   -0.0592   0.0611          -0.1789           0.0606
# 
# Likelihood ratio tests about transformation parameters
#                              LRT df      pval
# LR test, lambda = (0)  0.9213384  1 0.3371238
# LR test, lambda = (1) 84.0756559  1 0.0000000


# fit linear model with transformed response:
coef(p1, round=TRUE)
summary(m1 <- lm(bcPower(cycles, p1$roundlam) ~ len + amp + load, Wool))
plot(m1, which=2)
