Hi, I have a question about logistic regression in R. Suppose I have a small list of proteins P1, P2, P3 that predict a two-class target T, say cancer/noncancer. Lets further say I know that I can build a simple logistic regression model in R model <- glm(T ~ ., data=d.f(Y), family=binomial) (Y is the dataset of the Proteins). This works fine. T is a factored vector with levels cancer, noncancer. Proteins are numeric. Now, I want to use predic...

Hi, perhaps you can help me to find out, how to find the best Lambda in a LASSO-model. I have a feature selection problem with 150 proteins potentially predicting Cancer or Noncancer. With a lasso model fit.glm <- glmpath(x=as.matrix(X), y=target, family="binomial") (target is 0, 1 <- Cancer non cancer, X the proteins, numerical in expression), I get following path (PICTURE 1) One of these models is the best, according to its crossvalidation (PICTURE 2), t...
