Given the following data, I am plotting log.det ~ norm.beta, where the
points depend on a parameter, lambda
(but there is no functional form).
I want to find the (x,y) positions along this curve corresponding to two
special values of lambda
lambda.HKB <- 0.004275357
lambda.LW <- 0.03229531
and draw reference lines at ~ -45 degrees (or normal to the curve) thru
these points.
How can I do this? A complete example is below
> pd
lambda log.det norm.beta
0.000 0.000 -12.92710 3.806801
0.005 0.005 -14.41144 2.819460
0.010 0.010 -15.41069 2.423197
0.020 0.020 -16.82581 2.010924
0.040 0.040 -18.69819 1.611304
0.080 0.080 -21.05065 1.283928

# How to find the (x,y) positions for these values of lambda along the
curve of log.det ~ norm.beta ?
lambda.HKB <- 0.004275357
lambda.LW <- 0.03229531
