\title{Generic function and default method for predictive errors}
\usage{
predictive_error(object, ...)
\method{predictive_error}{default}(object, y, ...)
}
\arguments{
\item{object}{The object to use.}
\item{...}{Arguments passed to methods. See the methods in the \pkg{rstanarm}
package for examples.}
\item{y}{For the default method, a vector of \code{y} values the same length as
the number of columns in the matrix used as \code{object}.}
}
\value{
\code{predictive_error()} methods should return a \eqn{D} by \eqn{N}
matrix, where \eqn{D} is the number of draws from the posterior predictive
distribution and \eqn{N} is the number of data points being predicted per
draw.
The default method just takes \code{object} to be a matrix and \code{y} to be a
vector.
}
\description{
Generic function and default method for computing predictive errors
\eqn{y - y^{rep}}{y - yrep} (in-sample, for observed \eqn{y}) or
\eqn{y - \tilde{y}}{y - ytilde} (out-of-sample, for new or held-out \eqn{y}).
See \href{https://mc-stan.org/rstanarm/reference/predictive_error.stanreg.html}{predictive_error.stanreg()}
in the \pkg{rstanarm} package for an example.
}
\examples{
# default method
y <- rnorm(10)
ypred <- matrix(rnorm(500), 50, 10)
pred_errors <- predictive_error(ypred, y)
dim(pred_errors)
head(pred_errors)
