big.compute: "big.matrix" compatible computation of a given neural network...

Description Usage Arguments Details Value

Description

compute, a method for objects of class nn, typically produced by neuralnet. Computes the outputs of all neurons for specific arbitrary covariate vectors given a trained neural network. Please make sure that the order of the covariates is the same in the new matrix or dataframe as in the original neural network.

Usage

1
big.compute(x, covariate, rep = 1, model_type = NULL)

Arguments

x

an object of class nn.

covariate

a dataframe or matrix containing the variables that had been used to train the neural network.

rep

an integer indicating the neural network's repetition which should be used.

model_type

State specific model type that was fit (e.g. payor)

Details

This is a replication of the compute function only made compatible with big.matrix objects.

Value

compute

returns a list containing the following components:

neurons

a list of the neurons' output for each layer of the neural network.

net.result

a matrix containing the overall result of the neural network.
