hierNet (version 1.9)

predict.hierNet: Prediction function for hierNet and hierNet.logistic.

Description

A function to perform prediction, using an x matrix and the output of the "hierNet" or "hiernet.logistic" function.

Usage

# S3 method for hierNet
predict(object, newx, newzz=NULL, ...)

Arguments

object

The results of a call to the "hierNet" or "hierNet.path" or function. The coefficients that are part of this object will be used for making predictions.

newx

The new x at which predictions should be made. Can be a vector or a matrix (one obseration per row).

newzz

Optional matrix of products of columns of newx, computed by compute.interactions.c

...

additional arguments (not currently used)

Value

yhat

Vector of predictions for each observation. For logistic model, these are the estimated probabilities.
