Hello everyone,
I working in a public helath project and we have created a Decision Tree for
categorical variables usign the package rpart. Our goal is to develop a model in
order to predict presence/ausent of a diabetes and get a better understanding
of what are the important factors in a particular chilean population. There are
some importants variable that we have found. Now we want to apply this model
over a dataset in order to determinate a possible outcome (probability of
getting the deseasse), but we only have the combination of predictive variables
for a particular person (we have thousands).
We have created this code:
library(rpart)
fit1 <- rpart(sickness~ distancetothesource+gse+age+sex,
method="class", data=data)
prediccion<-predict(fit1 , type="prob")
predictionsyes<-prediccion[,2]
pred <- prediction(predictionsyes, datos$sickness)
My question is. How do I put the people's conditions in this model and get
the proability of getting the desease?
Hope someone can help.
