Laplace correction for smoothing low-frequency counts.

Usage

Laplace(range = c(0, 3), trans = NULL)

Arguments

range

A two-element vector holding the defaults for the smallest and largest possible values, respectively. If a transformation is specified, these values should be in the transformed units.

trans

A trans object from the scales package, such as scales::transform_log10() or scales::transform_reciprocal(). If not provided, the default is used which matches the units used in range. If no transformation, NULL.

Value

A function with classes "quant_param" and "param".

Details

This parameter is often used to correct for zero-count data in tables or proportions.
