yhat: Wrapper over the predict function

Description

This function is just a wrapper over the predict function. It sets different default parameters for models from different classes. For example: for classification random Forest is forces the output to be probabilities not classes itself.

Usage

yhat(X.model, newdata, ...)

# S3 method for lm yhat(X.model, newdata, ...)

# S3 method for randomForest yhat(X.model, newdata, ...)

# S3 method for default yhat(X.model, newdata, ...)

Arguments

X.model

object - a model to be explained

newdata

data.frame or matrix - observations for prediction

...

other parameters that will be passed to the `predict` function

Value

An numeric matrix of predictions. Can have more than one collumn.

Details

We use the `yhat` name instead of `predict` since we need different defaults that the one set in the `predict` function.
