Usage
## S3 method for class 'eco':
predict(object, newdraw = NULL, subset = NULL, verbose = FALSE, ...)
## S3 method for class 'ecoX':
predict(object, newdraw = NULL, subset = NULL, newdata = NULL, cond = FALSE, verbose = FALSE, ...)
Arguments
object
An output object from eco or ecoNP.
newdraw
An optional list containing two matrices (or three
dimensional arrays for the nonparametric model) of MCMC draws
of $\mu$ and $\Sigma$. Those elements should be named as
mu and Sigma, respectively. The default is the
newdata
An optional data frame containing a new data set for
which posterior predictions will be made. The new data set must have
the same variable names as those in the original data.
subset
A scalar or numerical vector specifying the row
number(s) of mu and Sigma in the output object from
eco. If specified, the posterior draws of parameters for
those rows are used for posterior prediction. T
cond
logical. If TRUE, then the conditional prediction
will made for the parametric model with contextual effects. The
default is FALSE.
verbose
logical. If TRUE, helpful messages along with a
progress report on the Monte Carlo sampling from the posterior
predictive distributions are printed on the screen. The default is
FALSE.

further arguments passed to or from other methods.
