Cross-Validation for Linear Regression

Description

This function gives internal and cross-validation measures of predictive accuracy for ordinary linear regression. The data are randomly assigned to a number of `folds'. Each fold is removed, in turn, while the remaining data is used to re-fit the regression model and to predict at the deleted observations.

Usage

cv.lm(df = houseprices, form.lm = formula(sale.price ~ area), m=3, dots = 
FALSE, seed=29, plotit=TRUE, printit=TRUE)

Arguments

df a data frame
form.lm a formula object
m the number of folds
dots uses pch=16 for the plotting character
seed random number generator seed
plotit if TRUE, a plot is constructed on the active device
printit if TRUE, output is printed to the screen

Value

For each fold, a table listing

the residuals
ms = the overall mean square of prediction error
