Extracts the model constant term, the model intercept, from a fitted model object.
Arguments
- model
a fitted model for which a
coef()
method exists
Examples
# \dontshow{
op <- options(digits = 4)
# }
load_mgcv()
# simulate a small example
df <- data_sim("eg1", seed = 42)
# fit the GAM
m <- gam(y ~ s(x0) + s(x1) + s(x2) + s(x3), data = df, method = "REML")
# extract the estimate of the constant term
model_constant(m)
#> [1] 7.495
# same as coef(m)[1L]
coef(m)[1L]
#> (Intercept)
#> 7.495
# \dontshow{
options(op)
# }
