Assigns cases to groups
Description
This function assigns cases to groups using the base-rate classification
technique. Cases are sorted according to their total scores on all indicators,
and the highest-scoring cases are assigned to the taxon such that the proportion
of taxon members equals the specified base rate estimate.
Usage
ClassifyCases(x, p, cols = 0)
Arguments
x
The supplied data matrix.
p
The base rate estimate that will be used to classify cases.
cols
The column numbers that contain variables
Details
Users should call this function directly if they wish to assign cases to
groups.
Value
Data matrix with a new classification variable.
