Sample-based prediction using "sns" Objects
}
\description{
Method for sample-based prediction using the output of \code{\link{sns.run}}.
}
\usage{
\method{predict}{sns}(object, fpred
, nburnin = max(nrow(object)/2, attr(object, "nnr"))
, end = nrow(object), thin = 1, ...)
\method{summary}{predict.sns}(object
, quantiles = c(0.025, 0.5, 0.975)
, ess.method = c("coda", "ise"), ...)
\method{print}{summary.predict.sns}(x, ...)
}
%- maybe also 'usage' for other objects documented here.
\arguments{
\item{object}{Object of class "sns" (output of \code{\link{sns.run}}) or "predict.sns" (output of \code{predict.sns}).}
\item{fpred}{Prediction function, accepting a single value for the state vector and producing a vector of outputs.}
\item{nburnin}{Number of burn-in iterations discarded for sample-based prediction.}
\item{end}{Last iteration used in sample-based prediction.}
\item{thin}{One out of \code{thin} iterations within the specified range are used for sample-based prediction.}
\item{quantiles}{Values for which sample-based quantiles are calculated.}
\item{ess.method}{Method used for calculating effective sample size. Default is to call \code{effectiveSize} from package \code{coda}.}
\item{x}{An object of class "summary.predict.sns".}
\item{...}{Arguments passed to/from other functions.}
}
\value{
\code{predict.sns} produces a matrix with number of rows equal to the length of prediction vector produces by \code{fpred}. Its numnber of columns is equal to the number of samples used within the user-specified range, and after thinning (if any). \code{summary.predict.sns} produces sample-based prediction mean, standard deviation, quantiles, and effective sample size.
