Compute the posterior mean and variance of `h` at a new predictor values

Description

Compute the posterior mean and variance of h at a new predictor values

Usage

ComputePostmeanHnew(
  fit,
  y = NULL,
  Z = NULL,
  X = NULL,
  Znew = NULL,
  sel = NULL,
  method = "approx"
)
ComputePostmeanHnew(
  fit,
  y = NULL,
  Z = NULL,
  X = NULL,
  Znew = NULL,
  sel = NULL,
  method = "approx"
)

Arguments

`fit`	An object containing the results returned by a the `kmbayes` function
`y`	a vector of outcome data of length `n`.
`Z`	an `n`-by-`M` matrix of predictor variables to be included in the `h` function. Each row represents an observation and each column represents an predictor.
`X`	an `n`-by-`K` matrix of covariate data where each row represents an observation and each column represents a covariate. Should not contain an intercept column.
`Znew`	matrix of new predictor values at which to predict new `h`, where each row represents a new observation. If set to NULL then will default to using the observed exposures Z.
`sel`	selects which iterations of the MCMC sampler to use for inference; see details
`method`	method for obtaining posterior summaries at a vector of new points. Options are "approx" and "exact"; defaults to "approx", which is faster particularly for large datasets; see details

Details

If method == "approx", the argument sel defaults to the second half of the MCMC iterations.
If method == "exact", the argument sel defaults to keeping every 10 iterations after dropping the first 50% of samples, or if this results in fewer than 100 iterations, than 100 iterations are kept

  y,
  Z,
  X = NULL,
  iter = 1000,
  family = "gaussian",
  id = NULL,
  verbose = TRUE,
  Znew = NULL,
  starting.values = NULL,
  control.params = NULL,
  varsel = FALSE,
  groups = NULL,
  knots = NULL,
  ztest = NULL,
  rmethod = "varying",
  est.h = FALSE

  y,
  Z,
  X = NULL,
  iter = 1000,
  family = "gaussian",
  id = NULL,
  verbose = TRUE,
  Znew = NULL,
  starting.values = NULL,
  control.params = NULL,
  varsel = FALSE,
  groups = NULL,
  knots = NULL,
  ztest = NULL,
  rmethod = "varying",
  est.h = FALSE
)

Arguments

`y`	a vector of outcome data of length `n`.
`Z`	an `n`-by-`M` matrix of predictor variables to be included in the `h` function. Each row represents an observation and each column represents an predictor.
`X`	an `n`-by-`K` matrix of covariate data where each row represents an observation and each column represents a covariate. Should not contain an intercept column.
`iter`	number of iterations to run the sampler
`family`	a description of the error distribution and link function to be used in the model. Currently implemented for `gaussian` and `binomial` families.
`id`	optional vector (of length `n`) of grouping factors for fitting a model with a random intercept. If NULL then no random intercept will be included.
`verbose`	TRUE or FALSE: flag indicating whether to print intermediate diagnostic information during the model fitting.
`Znew`	optional matrix of new predictor values at which to predict `h`, where each row represents a new observation. This will slow down the model fitting, and can be done as a post-processing step using `SamplePred`
`starting.values`	list of starting values for each parameter. If not specified default values will be chosen.
`control.params`	list of parameters specifying the prior distributions and tuning parameters for the MCMC algorithm. If not specified default values will be chosen.
`varsel`	TRUE or FALSE: indicator for whether to conduct variable selection on the Z variables in `h`
`groups`	optional vector (of length `M`) of group indicators for fitting hierarchical variable selection if varsel=TRUE. If varsel=TRUE without group specification, component-wise variable selections will be performed.
`knots`	optional matrix of knot locations for implementing the Gaussian predictive process of Banerjee et al. (2008). Currently only implemented for models without a random intercept.
`ztest`	optional vector indicating on which variables in Z to conduct variable selection (the remaining variables will be forced into the model).
`rmethod`	for those predictors being forced into the `h` function, the method for sampling the `r[m]` values. Takes the value of 'varying' to allow separate `r[m]` for each predictor; 'equal' to force the same `r[m]` for each predictor; or 'fixed' to fix the `r[m]` to their starting values
`est.h`	TRUE or FALSE: indicator for whether to sample from the posterior distribution of the subject-specific effects h_i within the main sampler. This will slow down the model fitting.

Value

an object of class "bkmrfit" (containing the posterior samples from the model fit), which has the associated methods:

print (i.e., print.bkmrfit)
summary (i.e., summary.bkmrfit)
