predict_xtune {xtune}

Model predictions based on fitted xtune object

Description

predict_xtune produces predicted values fitting an xtune model to a new dataset

Usage

predict_xtune(object, newX, type = c("response", "class"), ...)

Arguments

object

Fitted 'xtune' model object.

newX

Matrix of values at which predictions are to be made.

type

Type of prediction required. For "linear" models it gives the fitted values. Type "response" gives the fitted probability scores of each category for "binary" or "multiclass" outcome. Type "class" applies to "binary" or "multiclass" models, and produces the class label corresponding to the maximum probability.

Details

coef and predict methods are provided as a convenience to extract coefficients and make prediction. predict_xtune simply calculate the predicted value using the estimated coefficients returned by xtune.

Value

A vector of predictions

Examples

## If no Z provided, perform Empirical Bayes tuning
## simulate linear data
set.seed(9)
data(example)
X <- example$X
Y <- example$Y
Z <- example$Z


fit.eb <- xtune(X,Y)
coef_xtune(fit.eb)
predict_xtune(fit.eb,X)



## Feature specific shrinkage based on external information Z:

## simulate multi-categorical data
data(example.multiclass)
X <- example.multiclass$X
Y <- example.multiclass$Y
Z <- example.multiclass$Z

fit <- xtune(X,Y,Z,family = "multiclass")


## Coef and predict methods
coef_xtune(fit)
predict_xtune(fit,X, type = "class")
