add_predictions: Add predictions to data-list

In tinyVAST: Multivariate Spatio-Temporal Models using Structural Equations

Add predictions to data-list

Description

Given user-provided newdata, expand the object tmb_data to include predictions corresponding to those new observations

Usage

add_predictions(object, newdata, remove_origdata = FALSE)

Arguments

object	Output from tinyVAST().
newdata	New data-frame of independent variables used to predict the response.
remove_origdata	Whether to remove original-data to allow faster evaluation. remove_origdata=TRUE eliminates information about the distribution for random effects, and cannot be combined with epsilon bias-correction. WARNING: feature is experimental and subject to change.

Value

the object fit$tmb_inputs$tmb_data representing data used during fitting, but with updated values for slots associated with predictions, where this updated object can be recompiled by TMB to provide predictions
