Summary method for cv.ncvreg objects

# S3 method for cv.ncvreg
summary(object, ...)

# S3 method for summary.cv.ncvreg
print(x, digits, ...)

Arguments

object

A cv.ncvreg or cv.ncvsurv object.

...

Further arguments passed to or from other methods.

x

A summary.cv.ncvreg object.

digits

Number of digits past the decimal point to print out. Can be a vector specifying different display digits for each of the five non-integer printed values.

Value

An object with S3 class summary.cv.ncvreg. The class has its own print method and contains the following list elements:

penalty

The penalty used by ncvreg.

model

Either "linear" or "logistic", depending on the family option in ncvreg.

n

Number of instances

p

Number of regression coefficients (not including the intercept).

min

The index of lambda with the smallest cross-validation error.

lambda

The sequence of lambda values used by cv.ncvreg.

cve

Cross-validation error (deviance).

r.squared

Proportion of variance explained by the model, as estimated by cross-validation. For models outside of linear regression, the Cox-Snell approach to defining R-squared is used.

snr

Signal to noise ratio, as estimated by cross-validation.

sigma

For linear regression models, the scale parameter estimate.

pe

For logistic regression models, the prediction error (misclassification error).
