A grid‐search method of fitting segmented regression curves with unknown transition points is described and compared with a standard method to provide as a by‐product a way of making reliable inferences about the abscissae of the transitions.
Abstract
SUMMARY A grid-search method of fitting segmented regression curves with unknown transition points is described and compared with a standard method. It is shown to be suitable for fitting a wider class of models than the standard method and to provide as a by-product a way of making reliable inferences about the abscissae of the transitions.
