predict.sda:
Predict method for Sparse Discriminant Methods
Description
Prediction functions for link{sda} and link{smda}.
Usage
"predict"(object, newdata = NULL, ...)
"predict"(object, newdata = NULL, ...)
Arguments
object
an object of class link{sda} or link{smda}
newdata
a matrix or data frame of predictors
...
arguments passed to link[MASS]{predict.lda}
Value
A list with components:
- class
- The classification (a factor)
- posterior
- posterior probabilities for the classes (or subclasses for
link{smda}) - x
- the scores
Details
The current implementation for mixture discriminant models current predicts the subclass probabilities.
