predict.bagEarth: Predicted values based on bagged Earth and FDA models

Description

Predicted values based on bagged Earth and FDA models

Usage

## S3 method for class 'bagEarth':
predict(object, newdata = NULL, type = "response", ...)
## S3 method for class 'bagFDA':
predict(object, newdata = NULL, type = "class", ...)

Arguments

object

Object of class inheriting from bagEarth

newdata

An optional data frame or matrix in which to look for variables with which to predict. If omitted, the fitted values are used (see note below).

Value

• a vector of predictions

Examples

data(trees)
## out of bag predictions vs just re-predicting the training set
fit1 <- bagEarth(Volume ~ ., data = trees, keepX = TRUE)
fit2 <- bagEarth(Volume ~ ., data = trees, keepX = FALSE)
hist(predict(fit1) - predict(fit2))
