a3.base {A3}

Base A3 Results Calculation

Description

This function calculates the A3 results. Generally this function is not called directly. It is simpler to use a3 (for arbitrary models) or a3.lm (specifically for linear regressions).

Usage

a3.base(formula, data, model.fn, simulate.fn, n.folds = 10,
  data.generating.fn = replicate(ncol(x), a3.gen.default), p.acc = 0.01,
  features = TRUE, slope.sample = NULL, slope.displacement = 1)

Arguments

formula

the regression formula.

data

a data frame containing the data to be used in the model fit.

model.fn

function used to generate a model.

simulate.fn

function used to create the model and generate predictions.

n.folds

the number of folds used for cross-validation. Set to 0 to use Leave One Out Cross Validation.

data.generating.fn

the function used to generate stochastic noise for calculation of exact p values.

p.acc

the desired accuracy for the calculation of exact p values. The entire calculation process will be repeated 1/p.acc times so this can have a dramatic affect on time required. Set to NULL to disable the calculation of p values.

features

whether to calculate the average slopes, added R^2 and p values for each of the features in addition to the overall model.

slope.sample

if not NULL the sample size for use to calculate the average slopes (useful for very large data sets).

slope.displacement

the amount of displacement to take in calculating the slopes. May be a single number in which case the same slope is applied to all features. May also be a named vector where there is a name for each feature.

Value

S3 A3 object containing:

model.R2

The cross validated R^2 for the entire model.

feature.R2

The cross validated R^2's for the features (if calculated).

model.p

The p value for the entire model (if calculated).

feature.p

The p value for the features (if calculated).

all.R2

The R^2's for the model features, and any stochastic simulations for calculating exact p values.

observed

The observed response for each observation.

predicted

The predicted response for each observation.

slopes

Average slopes for each of the features (if calculated).

all.slopes

Slopes for each of the observations for each of the features (if calculated).
