Hi David, I am sorry for cross posting. I will keep this in mind next time. Regarding details, my doubt is regarding the documentation in the package where, it speaks about applying the function to held-out words but the input parameters don't take new datasets, rather they use the output generated by the model. I wanted to get the doubt cleared and now if my understanding of the function is right.
