ecp wrapper

The ecp package provides a non-parametric way to detect changepoints. Unlike the changepoint package, it does not assume raw data to have any formal distribution. This wrapper function wraps two functions from the ecp package, i.e., e.divisive() and e.agglo(). Users can use either function by switching the algorithm argument. Before using the wrapper function , seed should be set for the sake of reproducibility.

Usage

ecp_wrapper(data, algorithm = "divisive", min_size = 2, ...)

Arguments

data

A vector.

algorithm

Either divisive or agglo. divisive is the default.

min_size

Minimum number of observations between change points. By default is 2. This argument is only applied when algorithm = "divisive".

...

Extra arguments to pass on either from e.divisive() or e.agglo().

Value

A tibble includes which point(s) is/are the changepoint along with raw changepoint value corresponding to that changepoint.
