summary.BchronologyRun function

Summarise a Bchronology object

Summarise a Bchronology object

## S3 method for class 'BchronologyRun'
summary(
  object,
  type = c("quantiles", "outliers", "convergence", "sed_rate", "acc_rate", "max_var"),
  probs = c(0.025, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 0.975),
  useExisting = TRUE,
  numPos = 3,
  ...,
  digits = max(3, getOption("digits") - 3)
)

Arguments

• object: Output from a run of Bchronology
• type: Type of output required. The default (quantiles) gives the quantiles of the ages for each position in predictPositions from Bchronology. The other options provide outlier probabilities, convergence diagnostics, accumulation rates, sedimentation rate, and positions of maximum age variance
• probs: Probabilities (between 0 and 1) at which to summarise the predicted chronologies
• useExisting: Whether to use the predicted chronologies/positions to calculate the sedimentation rate (if TRUE - default) or to re-create them based on a unit-scaled position grid (if FALSE). The latter will be a little bit slower but will provide better sedimentation rate estimates if the original positions are not on a unit scale (e.g. each cm)
• numPos: The number of positions at which to provide the maximum variance
• ...: Other arguments (not currently supported)
• digits: Number of digits to report values
