Quantlet: pred
Description: Given a regression tree m (output of cartsplit) and a vector x, returns m(x), that is, the predicton of the tree on that point.

Usage: enn = pred (tr, x, type)
Input:
tr list of vectors: data structure which represents a binary tree and is produced by cartsplit procedure, contains vectors tr.val, tr.vec, tr.mean, tr.ssr, tr.nelem. See cartsplit for the description of tr.
x p x 1 vector: represents a point in the sample space at which the prediction of the regression tree will be given.
type p x 1 vector: contains the types of the original regression variables, 1 means that the corresponding variable is continuous and 0 that it is categorical. This vector should be similar to the vector which was given originally as an input to the cartsplit which produced the regression tree tr.
Output:
enn real number: prediction of the regression tree at x, that is, the value of the regression function at x.

Example:

; loads the library xclust

library ("xclust")

;let us generate a tree by cartsplit procedure

x1=#(0,0,0,0,1,1,1,1,1,2)

x2=#(0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,1)

x=x1~x2

y=#(0,0,0,0,100,100,100,120,120,120)

tr=cartsplit(x,y,#(0,1))

tr

enn1=pred(tr,#(0,1),#(0,1))

enn1

enn2=pred(tr,#(1,-1),#(0,1))

enn2

enn3=pred(tr,#(1,1),#(0,1))

enn3
