As I understand it, predict.lm(l ,newdata=nd ,interval="confidence") yields
confidence bands for the predicted mean of new observations and lm.predict(l
,newdata=nd ,interval="prediction") yields confidence bands for new
observations themselves, given an lm object l.
However with regard to {mgcv} although predict.gam (g ,se.fit=TRUE ,interval=
"prediction") computes without protest it only seems to yield the predicted
mean and the standard error of the predicted mean given an {mgcv} gam object g.
Is there an easy way to get confidence bands for new observations for {mgcv}
gam objects, analogous to those available for lm objects?
