从R中的摘要对象中删除无关紧要的变量

Question

I am fitting a mixture of beta regressions using the betamix package in R. If I use the example given in the package with code:

data("ReadingSkills", package = "betareg")
set.seed(4040)
rs_mix <- betamix(accuracy ~ iq, data = ReadingSkills, k = 3,
              nstart = 10, extra_components = extraComponent(type = "uniform",
                                                             coef = 0.99, delta = 0.01))
summary(rs_mix)

Running the summary of the fitted betamix object gives the results:

> summary(rs_mix)

The Component 2 results show the variable iq is not significant. Is there a way to remove this variable from the summary result? I have tried using summary(rs_mix)$Comp.1 and it gives me the error:

Error in summary(rs_mix)$Comp.1 : 
  $ operator not defined for this S4 class

Answer 1

You can access S4 objects using the @ symbol. It works similar to $ for S3 objects.

smr = summary(rs_mix)
comps = smr@components[[1]]
significance_level = 0.05

lapply(comps, function(x) {
  bool = x[['mean']][,4] < significance_level
  x[['mean']][bool, ]
})
