predict.BTLLasso: Predict function for BTLLasso

In BTLLasso: Modelling Heterogeneity in Paired Comparison Data

Description

Predict function for a BTLLasso object or a cv.BTLLasso object. Predictions can be linear predictors, probabilities or the values of the latent traits for both competitors in the paired comparisons.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'BTLLasso'
predict(object, newdata = list(), type = c("link", "response", "trait"), ...)

Arguments

object	BTLLasso or cv.BTLLasso object
newdata	List possibly containing slots Y, X, Z1 and Z2 to use new data for prediction.
type	Type "link" gives the linear predictors for separate categories, type "response" gives the respective probabilities. Type "trait" gives the estimated latent traits of both competitors/objects in the paired comparisons.
...	Further predict arguments.

Details

Results are lists of matrices with prediction for every single tuning parameter for BTLLasso objects and a single matrix for cv.BTLLasso objects.
