update.ame_als: Update an ame_als / lame_als fit

Description

S3 method for update that re-fits an ALS fit with modified arguments. Two routes:

• if ... contains only the warm-start refit knobs (Y_new, X_new, Z_new, max_iter, tol, verbose), it delegates to ame_als_refit for a fast warm-started refit;

• otherwise (e.g. changing R, family, lambda, bootstrap) it re-evaluates the original object$call with the overrides, matching the update.ame semantics on the MCMC side.

The split exists because ame_als_refit() is a genuinely warm-started single-fit refit (faster, narrower argument set), while changing R / family requires a cold-start refit through ame_als.

Usage

# S3 method for ame_als
update(object, ..., evaluate = TRUE)
# S3 method for lame_als
update(object, ..., evaluate = TRUE)

Value

A new fitted ame_als object, or (when evaluate = FALSE on the cold-start path) the modified call.

Arguments

object

A fitted ame_als / lame_als object.

...

Named arguments. See ame_als_refit for the warm-start argument list and ame_als for the cold-start argument list.

evaluate

Logical: if TRUE (default), evaluate the updated call and return the new fit; if FALSE, return the unevaluated call (cold-start path only).

Examples

# \donttest{
Y <- matrix(rnorm(400), 20, 20); diag(Y) <- NA
fit <- ame_als(Y, R = 1, family = "normal", verbose = FALSE)
# warm-start refit with the same arguments (fast)
fit_w <- update(fit, max_iter = 50)
# cold-start refit with a different R (full restart)
fit_R2 <- update(fit, R = 2)
# }
