predict.Bmix: Predict Method for Bmix

In REBayes: Empirical Bayes Estimation and Inference

Predict Method for Bmix

Description

Predict Method for Binomial Mixtures

Usage

## S3 method for class 'Bmix'
predict(object, newdata, Loss = 2, newk, ...)

Arguments

object	fitted object of class "Bmix"
newdata	Values at which prediction is desired
Loss	Loss function used to generate prediction: Currently supported values: 2 to get mean predictions, 1 to get median predictions, 0 to get modal predictions or any tau in (0,1) to get tau-th quantile predictions.
newk	k values (number of trials) for the predictions
...	optional arguments to predict

Details

The predict method for Bmix objects will compute means, quantiles or modes of the posterior according to the Loss argument. Typically, newdata would be passed to predict

Value

A vector of predictions
