predict.MclustDR: Classify multivariate observations on a dimension reduced subspace by Gaussian finite mixture modeling

Description

Classify multivariate observations on a dimension reduced subspace estimated from a Gaussian finite mixture model.

Usage

# S3 method for MclustDR
predict(object, dim = 1:object$numdir, newdata, eval.points, …)

Arguments

object

an object of class 'MclustDR' resulting from a call to MclustDR.

dim

the dimensions of the reduced subspace used for prediction.

newdata

a data frame or matrix giving the data. If missing the data obtained from the call to MclustDR are used.

eval.points

a data frame or matrix giving the data projected on the reduced subspace. If provided newdata is not used.

…

further arguments passed to or from other methods.

Value

Returns a list of with the following components:

dir

a matrix containing the data projected onto the dim dimensions of the reduced subspace.

density

densities from mixture model for each data point.

z

a matrix whose [i,k]th entry is the probability that observation i in newdata belongs to the kth class.

uncertainty

The uncertainty associated with the classification.

classification

A vector of values giving the MAP classification.
