Predict Method for addreg Fits
Description
Obtains predictions from a fitted addreg
object.
Usage
## S3 method for class 'addreg'
predict(object, newdata = NULL, type = c("link", "response", "terms"), terms = NULL,
na.action = na.pass, checkminmax = TRUE, ...)
Arguments
object |
a fitted object of class inheriting from |
newdata |
optionally, a data frame in which to look for variables with which to predict. If omitted, the fitted linear predictors are used. |
type |
the type of prediction required. The default is on the scale of the linear predictors;
the alternative The value of this argument can be abbreviated. |
terms |
with |
na.action |
function determining what should be done with missing values in |
checkminmax |
logical indicating whether or not values of continuous covariates in |
... |
further arguments passed to or from other methods. |
Details
If newdata
is omitted the predictions are based on the data used for the fit.
In that case how cases with missing values in the original fit are treated is determined by the
na.action
argument of that fit. If na.action = na.omit
, omitted cases
will not appear in the residuals; if na.action = na.exclude
they will
appear, with residual value NA
. See also napredict
.
Value
A vector or matrix of predictions. For type = "terms"
, this is a matrix with
a column per term, and may have an attribute "constant"
.
Note
Variables are first looked for in newdata
and then searched for in the usual
way (which will include the environment of the formula used in the fit). A warning
will be given if the variables found are not of the same length as those in
newdata
if it was supplied.
