This class is a container for the parameterization of Spline models. This class is experimental and not recommended for use!

Slots

df_season: Degrees of freedom for spline modeling seasonality. This class uses cubic splines, which are not recommended to model periodic patterns.
df_trend: Degrees of freedom for spline modeling the time trend
timeTrend: Indicates whether a time trend should be included in the model.
timepoints_per_unit: Number of time points within the considered time unit (e.g. 52 for weekly observations in a year).
offset: TRUE if an offset should be included in the model.
formula_bckg: A formula which models the 'normal' (background) states.
formula: A formula which models which includes variable(s) to model 'excess' state(s).
