What is gbm?

Green Belt Movement?
Georgie Boy Manufacturing?

I'm serious! Well, only sort of, but try Google on "gbm" and

find those two expansions and several others like them.

I suppose you mean Gradient Boosting Machine, or Generalized Boosted
regression Models. Have you followed up on the references and examples
