predictvbiglm: Generates Predictions and Fitting Statistics for biglm object

Description Usage Arguments Value Author(s) Examples

View source: R/predictvbiglm.R

Description

Generates prediction statistics on a validation file and returns data frame of results. For actual predictions, use the biglm predict function.

Usage

1
predictvbiglm(BaseModel, ValFileName, currentchunksize = -1, ResponseCol = 1, silent = TRUE, MemoryAllowed = 0.5, TestedRows = 1000, AdjFactor = 0.095)

Arguments

BaseModel

BaseModel is a biglm object. Must have a formula in the biglm object that specifies the model ie. y~x1 + x2 etc.

ValFileName

Validation filename. Can be any size. This is what is used to calculate AIC,BIC, or MSE and other statistics.

currentchunksize

Allows user to specify the size of chunking. default is -1 for automatically determining the size by use of getbestchunksize function

ResponseCol

The column that the y or response variable is in in the dataset. Training, validation, as well as the smaller data chunk that the passed biglm object was initially fit on must all have the same format ie. same variables and columns.

silent

specify as TRUE to suppress all nonimportant messages by the function

MemoryAllowed

See function getbestchunksize for argument description.

TestedRows

See function getbestchunksize for argument description.

AdjFactor

See function getbestchunksize for argument description.

Value

Returns a data frame that contains the AIC,BIC, and MSE of the model on the specified validation or ValFileName file.
