Classify using DD-Classifier
Classifies data using the DD-classifier and a specified outsider treatment.
ddalpha.classify(ddalpha, objects, subset, outsider.method = NULL, use.convex = NULL) ## S3 method for class 'ddalpha' predict(object, objects, subset, outsider.method = NULL, use.convex = NULL, ...)
ddalpha, object |
DDα-classifier (obtained by |
objects |
Matrix containing objects to be classified; each row is one d-dimensional object. |
subset |
an optional vector specifying a subset of observations to be classified. |
outsider.method |
Character string, name of a treatment to be used for outsiders; one of those trained by |
use.convex |
Logical variable indicating whether outsiders should be determined as the points not contained in any of the convex hulls of the classes from the training sample ( |
... |
additional parameters are ignored |
Only one outsider treatment can be specified.
See Lange, Mosler and Mozharovskyi (2014) for details and additional information.
List containing class labels, or character string "Ignored" for the outsiders if "Ignore" was specified as the outsider treating method.
