Prediction of new scores in MFAmix

Description

This function performs the scores of new observations on the principal components of MFAmix. In other words, this function is projecting the new observations onto the principal components of MFAmix obtained previoulsy on a separated dataset. Note that the new observations must be described with the same variables than those used in MFAmix. The groups of variables must also be identical.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'MFAmix'
predict(object, data, ...)

Arguments

object	an object of class MFAmix obtained with the function MFAmix.
data	a data frame containing the description of the new observations on all the variables. This data frame will be split into G groups according to the vector groups.
...	urther arguments passed to or from other methods. They are ignored in this function.

Value

Returns the matrix of the scores of the new observations on the principal components or on the rotated principal components of MFAmix.
