Logistic Regression - Variable Selection Methods With Prediction
...'Y' and 'N') and i have about 14 predictor
variables. My goal is to compare different variable selection methods
like Forward, Backward, All possible subsests. I am using
misclassification rate to pick the winner method.
This is what i have as of now,
Reg <- glm (Graduation ~., DFtrain,family=binomial(link="logit"))
step <- extractAIC(Reg, direction="forward")
pred <- predict(Reg, DFtest,type="response")
mis <- mean({pred > 0.5} != {DFtest[,"Graduation"] == "Y"})
This program actually works but I needed to check...
