Method for adding new models to the yates function.

Description

This is a method which is called by the yates function, in order to setup the code to handle a particular model type. Methods for glm, coxph, and default are part of the survival package.

Usage

yates_setup(fit, ...)

Arguments

Details

If the predicted value should be the linear predictor, the function should return NULL. The yates routine has particularly efficient code for this case. Otherwise it should return a prediction function or a list of two elements containing the prediction function and a summary function. The prediction function will be passed the linear predictor as a single argument and should return a vector of predicted values.

Note

See the vignette on population prediction for more details.
