I am trying to fit an isotonic step function to my data. Every isotonic step regression function (I've tried isoreg, pava, etc) 'finds' multiple points of increase (steps) across my dataset. However, I would like to limit the steps to 7, because given my understanding of the data, I expect exactly 7 sudden points of increase.
(I will then see if the steps predicted by the regression occur at the regions I expect them to.) Could anyone please help me restrict the number of points to 7 or any other defined number? I would really appreciate it.
