Like earth can be trained simultaneously for degree and nprune, is there a way to train ctree simultaneously for mincriterion and maxdepth? Also, I notice there are separate methods ctree and ctree2, and if both options are attempted to tune with one method, the summary averages the option it doesn't support. The full log is attached, and notice these lines below for

*Hi, *Does anyone know how can I show an *ROC curve for R-SVM*? I understand in R-SVM we are not optimizing over SVM cost parameter. Any example ROC for R-SVM code or guidance can be really useful. Thanks, Angel. [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

I extracting splitting rules from Greg Ridgeway's GBM 1.6-3.2 in R 2.15.2, so I can run classification in a production system outside of R. ?I have it working and verified for a dummy data set with all variable types (numeric, factor, ordered) and missing values, but in the titanic survivors data set the splitting rule for factors does not make sense. ?The attached code and log below explains

After ctree builds a tree, how would I determine the direction missing values follow by examining the BinaryTree-class object? For instance in the example below Bare.nuclei has 16 missing values and is used for the first split, but the missing values are not listed in either set of factors. (I have the same question for missing values among numeric [non-factor] values, but I assume the answer
