predict {MLSeq} | R Documentation

## Extract predictions from `classify()` object

### Description

This function predicts the class labels of test data for a given model.

`predictClassify` and `predict` functions return the predicted class information along with trained model. Predicted values are given either as class labels or estimated probabilities of each class for each sample. If `type = "raw"`, as can be seen in the example below, the predictions are extracted as raw class labels.In order to extract estimated class probabilities, one should follow the steps below:

- set `classProbs = TRUE` within `control` arguement in `classify`

- set `type = "prob"` within `predictClassify`

### Usage

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

    predictClassify(object, test.data, ...)

    ## S4 method for signature 'MLSeq'
    predict(object, test.data, ...)

### Arguments

`object` | a model of `MLSeq` class returned by `classify`
`test.data` | a `DESeqDataSet` instance of new observations.
`...` | further arguments to be passed to or from methods. These arguements are used in `predict.train` from caret package.

### Value

`MLSeqObject` an MLSeq object returned from `classify`. See details.

`Predictions` a data frame or vector including either the predicted class probabilities or class labels of given test data.

### Note

`predictClassify(...)` function was used in `MLSeq` up to package version 1.14.x. This function is alliased with generic function `predict`. In the upcoming versions of MLSeq package, `predictClassify` function will be ommitted. Default function for predicting new observations will be `predict` from version 1.16.x and later.
