Thank you Luis. When calibrating the adaptive model, using adapt=t in the bandwidth selection created the proportion you speak of, which then allowed me to create a bandwidth matrix using gwr.adapt. However, this has not worked for me with holdout samples. Have you had success in this regard?
I do not know the intended influence of these "fit.points". I would think that new localized regressions are not calculated, as we're testing the model and previous data points' ability to predict for these new ones, but I could be wrong. My current method, however, is producing much poorer results with the holdouts, which I am fairly sure is related to my inability to incorporate the new points necessary bandwidths. I will keep your input in mind and touch back with what I glean. Thank you much for your time.
