Description

Makes predictions (either as the most likely state or as the conditional distributions) of variables conditional on evidence on other variables in an independence network.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'gmInstance':
predict(object, response, predictors, newdata, type = "class", ...)

Arguments

object
A gmInstance object
response
A vector of response variables to make predictions on
predictors
A vector of predictor variables to make predictions from. Defaults to all variables that are note responses.
newdata
A data frame
type
If "class", the most probable class is returned; if "distribution" the conditional distrubtion is returned.
...
Not used

Value

  • A list with components
  • predA list with the predictions
  • pevidenceA vector with the probability of the evidence on which the prediction is based
