nsrobapred1 {OBASpatial}

Prediction under Normal Objective Bayesian Analysis (OBA).

Description

This function uses the sampling distribution of parameters obtained from the function tsroba to predict values at unknown locations.

Usage

nsrobapred1(xpred, coordspred, obj)

Arguments

xpred

Values of the X design matrix for prediction coordinates.

coordspred

Points coordinates to be predicted.

obj

object of the class "nsroba" (see nsroba function).

Details

This function predicts using the sampling distribution of parameters obtained from the function nsroba and the conditional normal distribution of the predicted values given the data.

Value

This function returns a vector with the predicted values at the specified locations.
