glmnet (version 2.0-10)

predict.cv.glmnet: make predictions from a "cv.glmnet" object.

Description

This function makes predictions from a cross-validated glmnet model, using the stored "glmnet.fit" object, and the optimal value chosen for lambda.

Usage

# S3 method for cv.glmnet
predict(object, newx, s=c("lambda.1se","lambda.min"),...)
# S3 method for cv.glmnet
coef(object,s=c("lambda.1se","lambda.min"),...)

Arguments

object

Fitted "cv.glmnet" object.

newx

Matrix of new values for x at which predictions are to be made. Must be a matrix; can be sparse as in Matrix package. See documentation for predict.glmnet.

s

Value(s) of the penalty parameter lambda at which predictions are required. Default is the value s="lambda.1se" stored on the CV object. Alternatively s="lambda.min" can be used. If s is numeric, it is taken as the value(s) of lambda to be used.

Not used. Other arguments to predict.

Value

The object returned depends the … argument which is passed on to the predict method for glmnet objects.

Details

This function makes it easier to use the results of cross-validation to make a prediction.
