SSN (version 1.1.4)

getPreds: Extract Predictions with associated standard errors.

Description

This function extracts predictions and standard errors from objects of class 'glmssn.predict' or 'influenceSSN'. Predictions are extracted for unobserved locations, while cross-validation predictions are extracted for observed locations.

Usage

getPreds(x, pred.type = "cv")

Arguments

x

an object of class predict.glmssn or influenceSSN-class

pred.type

prediction type, either "pred" or "cv". The "pred" option indicates that a 'glmssn.predict' object is being accessed and a text file containing predictions and standard errors for the predictions is exported. When the "cv" option is used, obje

Value

• getPreds returns a matrix containing the point identifier (pid), the predictions, and the standard errors for the predictions.
