The structure of an object of S3 class bn.kcv
or bn.kcv.list
.
An object of class bn.kcv.list
is a list whose elements are objects
of class bn.kcv
.
An object of class bn.kcv
is a list whose elements correspond to the
iterations of a k-fold cross-validation. Each element contains the following
objects:
test
: an integer vector, the indexes of the observations
used as a test set.
fitted
: an object of class bn.fit
, the Bayesian network
fitted from the training set.
loss
: the value of the loss function.
If the loss function requires to predict values from the test sets, each element also contains:
predicted
: a factor or a numeric vector, the predicted values
for the target node in the test set.
observed
: a factor or a numeric vector, the observed values
for the target node in the test set.
In addition, an object of class bn.kcv
has the following attributes:
loss
: a character string, the label of the loss function.
mean
: the mean of the values of the loss function computed in
the k
iterations of the cross-validation, which is printed as the
"expected loss" or averaged to compute the "average loss over the runs".
bn
: either a character string (the label of the learning
algorithm to be applied to the training data in each iteration) or an
object of class bn
(a fixed network structure).
