## S3 method for class 'sento_model'
predict(object, newx, type = "response", offset = NULL, ...)

Arguments

object

a sento_model object created with sento_model.

newx

a data matrix used for the prediction(s), row-by-row; see predict.glmnet. The number of columns should be equal to sum(sento_model$nVar), being the number of original sentiment measures and other variables. The variables discarded in the regression process are dealt with within this function, based on sento_model$discarded.

type

type of prediction required, a value from c("link", "response", "class"), see documentation for predict.glmnet.

offset

not used.

...

not used.

Value

A prediction output depending on the type argument.
