Check the compatibility of a design matrix with a covariance object.
# S4 method for covAll
checkX(object, X, strict = FALSE, ...)
A matrix with columns names identical to the input names attached with
the kernel object, i.e. inputNames(object). The columns are
copies of those found under the same names in X, but are put in
the order of inputNames(object). When an input name does not
exist in colnames(X) an error occurs.
A covariance kernel object.
A design matrix or data frame.
Logical. If TRUE, the character vectors colnames(X)
and inputNames(object) must be the same sets, and hence have
the same length. If FALSE the vector
inputNames(object) must be a subset of colnames(X)
which then can have unused columns.
Not used yet.
The matrix X must have the number of columns expected from the
covariance kernel object description, and it must have named columns
conforming to the kernel input names as returned by the
inputNames method. If the two sets of names are identical but
the names are in a different order, the columns are permuted in order
to be in the same order as the input names. If the names sets differ,
an error occurs.
The inputNames method.
