evaluate-methods {distrTEst}

Methods for Function evaluate in Package ‘distrTEst’

Description

evaluate-methods to produce objects of class "Evaluation"

Arguments

object

the data set / simulation on which the evaluation takes place

estimator

the estimation function used; should be able to deal with data in matrix form samplesize x obsDim, and, should return either a univariate result or a vector (with named coordinates, if possible).

resname

(a vector of) character(s); the name for the univariate results or, in the case of multivariate results, and if the coordinates of the results have not yet been named, the basic name for them which is pasted to the coordinate number for each coordinate.

name

character; the name for the Evaluation object; by default the (R-)name of the Data set object.

filename

character; the filename for the Evaluation object (where it is to be saved to); by default the filename of the Data set object which is concatenated with the name of the estimator in savedata.

Details

besides the arguments determining the method dispatch, we have:

evaluate(object, estimator, ..., resname = "res", 
                       name = as.character(substitute(object)),
                       filename = filename(object))

Methods

evaluate

signature(object = "Dataclass", estimator = "function"): creates an object of class "Evaluation", see there for further information

evaluate

signature(object = "Contsimulation", estimator = "function"): creates an object of class "Evaluation", see there for further information
