l2boost (version 1.0.3)

residuals.l2boost: Model residuals for the training set of an l2boost model object

Description

residuals is a generic function which extracts model residuals from objects returned by modeling functions.

residuals.l2boost returns the training set residuals from an l2boost object. By default, the residuals are returned at the final iteration step m=M.

Usage

# S3 method for l2boost
residuals(object, m = NULL, ...)

Arguments

object

an l2boost object for the extraction of model coefficients.

m

the iteration number with the l2boost path. If m=NULL, the coefficients are obtained from the last iteration M.

...

arguments (unused)

Value

a vector of n residuals
