tovecv: Convert error measures to vecv

In spm: Spatial Predictive Modeling

Convert error measures to vecv

Description

tovecv can be used to convert existing predictive error measures to vecv. For the definition of vecv, please see function vecv in library (spm). The error measures considered are mean square error (mse), root mse (rmse), relative rmse (rrmse), standardised rmse (srmse) and mean square reduced error (msre).

Usage

tovecv(n, mu, s, m, measure = c("mse", "rmse", "rrmse", "srmse", "msre"))

Arguments

n	sample number of validation samples.
mu	mean of validation samples.
s	standard deviation of validation samples.
m	value of an error measure.
measure	a type of error measure (i.e. "mse", "rmse", "rrmse", "srmse" or "msre").

Value

a numeric number.

Examples

n <- 300
mu <- 15.5
sd <- 8.80
mse <- 50.43
rmse <- sqrt(mse)
rrmse <- rmse / mu * 100
srmse <- rmse / sd
msre <- mse / sd ^ 2
tovecv(n=n, mu=mu, s=sd, m=mse, measure="mse")

tovecv(n=n, mu=mu, s=sd, m=rmse, measure="rmse")

tovecv(n=n, mu=mu, s=sd, m=rrmse, measure="rrmse")

tovecv(n=n, mu=mu, s=sd, m=srmse, measure="srmse")

tovecv(n=n, mu=mu, s=sd, m=msre, measure="msre")
