predict.ima: Predict method for "ima" class objects.

In immunoassay: Functions for working with immunoassay data.

Description

Use this function to obtain predictions from fit data stored in the ima class objects.

Usage

    ## S3 method for class 'ima'
predict(object, analyte=1, newdata=NULL, ...)

Arguments

object	An object of class ima.
analyte	Integer in range from 1 to the number of analytes. Determines which analyte will be used for making predictions.
newdata	Numeric vector of MFI values to be used for making predictions. If NULL, the default calibrator values from the data will be used. This is the default.
...	Currently ignored.

Details

This function makes predictions using inverse sigmoidal function and the equation coefficients stored in the class ima data frame. This is a very simple function and the output is limited to the predictions themselves - i.e. no intervals can be obtained.

Value

Numeric vector of predictions.

Note

This function works only for class ima objects that have the coefficients stored in them - that is coming from "xPONENT" platform.
