predict.bagEarth<br />

Predicted values based on bagged Earth and FDA models<br />

Description<br />

Predicted values based on bagged Earth and FDA models<br />

Usage<br />

predict.bagEarth(object, newdata = NULL, ...)<br />

predict.bagFDA(object, newdata = NULL, type = "class", ...)<br />

Arguments<br />

object<br />

newdata<br />

type<br />

... not used<br />

Object of class inheriting from bagEarth<br />

An optional data frame or matrix in which to look for variables with which to<br />

predict. If omitted, the fitted values are used (see note below).<br />

bagFDA only: if type = "class" is specified, a factor of class predictions<br />

(with the same levels as the original training outcome) are returned. If type =<br />

"probs", a matrix of class probabilities (i.e. vote rates) is returned.<br />

Value<br />

a vector of predictions<br />

Note<br />

If the predictions for the original training set are needed, there are two ways to calculate them.<br />

First, the original data set can be predicted by each bagged earth model. Secondly, the predictions<br />

form each bootstrap sample could be used (but are more likely to overfit). If the original call to<br />

bagEarth or bagFDA had keepX = TRUE, the first method is used, otherwise the values are<br />

calculated via the second method.<br />
