combineGLoMos: Combine a set of similar GLoMo objects into 1

In GLoMo: Naive General Location Model

Description

In a crossvalidation setting or similar, often similar GLoMo objects occur: matching the same form of dataset, each of equal size or at least very similar. This is a method that combines them reasonably into 1 GLoMo model object.

Usage

combineGLoMos(..., listOfGLoMos=NULL, verbosity=0)

Arguments

...	several GLoMo objects from similar datasets
listOfGLoMos	if you have the parameters already in a list, this is the easier way of passing them.
verbosity	The higher this value, the more levels of progress and debug information is displayed (note: in R for Windows, turn off buffered output)

Value

a GLoMo object
