Parallelizing GBM
...uru about parallel programming. Most of the time, I rely or randomForest for data mining large datasets. I would like to give a try also to the gradient boosted methods in GBM, but I have a need for parallelization. I normally rely on gbm.fit for speed reasons, and I usually call it this way gbm_model <- gbm.fit(trainRF,prices_train, offset = NULL, misc = NULL, distribution = "multinomial", w = NULL, var.monotone = NULL, n.trees = 50, interaction.depth = 5, n.minobsinnode = 10, shrinkage = 0.001, bag.fraction = 0.5, nTrain = (n_train/2), keep.data = FALSE, verbose = TRUE, var.names...
