Hi all,

I am currently trying to compare different plant occurrence prediction maps generated in R and exported into GRASS. One of these maps was generated from a glm fitted to some data, and subsequently applying this glm model to a wider region using predict.glm. The outcome here was a probability of occurrence. The second map I generated using a gam (mgcv), however, this map seems to have assigned something like a negative log-likelihood of occurrence to each raster cell in the region. Since I would like to compare the two, I would like to figure out a way of having the same kind of output from the "predict" functions (either probability OR negative log-likelihood). Does anyone know of a way of changing the output options? And if not, does anyone have any suggestions of how I could deal with this issue?

Have you actually read the help pages for predict.glm and mgcv::predict.gam?
