Dear All, After followed the help of nnet, I could get the networks trained and, excitedly, get the prediction for other samples. It is a two classes data set, I used "N" and "P" to label the two. My question is, how do I get the predicted numerical value for each sample? Not just give me the label(either "N" or "P")? Thanks! FYI: The nnet example I

Dear all, Objective: I am trying to learn about neural networks. I want to see if i can train an artificial neural network model to discriminate between spam and nonspam emails. Problem: I created my own model (example 1 below) and got an error of about 7.7%. I created the same model using the Rattle package (example 2 below, based on rattles log script) and got a much better error of about

Greetings, I am having trouble calculating artificial neural network misclassification errors using errorest() from the ipred package. I have had no problems estimating the values with randomForest() or svm(), but can't seem to get it to work with nnet(). I believe this is due to the output of the predict.nnet() function within cv.factor(). Below is a quick example of the problem I'm

Hi all, I'm running a monte carlo test of a neural network tool I've developed, and it looks like it's going to take a very long time if I run it in R so I'm interested in translating my code (included below) into something faster like Fortran (which I'll have to learn from scratch). However, as you'll see my code loads the nnet library and uses it quite a bit, and I

Hi. I started with a file which was a sparse 982x923 matrix and where the last column was a variable to be predicted. I did principle component analysis on it and arrived at a new 982x923 matrix. Then I ran the code below to get a neural network using nnet and then wanted to get a confusion matrix or at least know how accurate the neural net was. I used the first 22 principle components only for

Hello, I want to use nnet package in R, to train and simulate a NN and get the value of MSE. I am reading in a file which has 19 input variables and one output variable and has a total of 2000 observations. The first column in the file is a column just for giving the serial numbers of the observations. I have already read in the file and also extracted the different values into the matrices to

Dear R-users, dear Prof. Ripley as package maintainer I tried to investigate the odd error, when I call nnet together with a 'weights' parameter, using the 'fgl' example in V&R p 348 The error I get is: Error in eval(expr, envir, enclos) : Object "w" not found I think it is a kind of scoping problem, but I really cannot see, what the problem exactly is. and

Dear R-users I use nnet for a classification (2 classes) problem. I use the code CVnn1, CVnn2 as described in V&R. The thing I changed to the code is: I define the (class) weight for each observation in each cv 'bag' and give the vector of weights as parameter of nnet(..weights = weight.vector...) Unfortunately I get an error during some (but not all!) inner-fold cv runs:

I'm creating my own package for personal and I'm having trouble getting it to a point where R (v 2.3.1) will recognise it. I've followed two different tutorials for how to create the package structure and the DESCRIPTION file ( http://web.maths.unsw.edu.au/~wand/webcpdg/rpack.html , http://www.maths.bris.ac.uk/~maman/computerstuff/Rhelp/Rpackages.html#Lin-Lin ). I'm still getting

I am using library(nnet) to train up an ANN with what I believe is a moderately sized dataset, but R is complaining about too many weights: --- > nn.1 <- nnet(t(data), targets, size = 4, rang = 0.1, decay = 5e-4, maxit = 200) Error in nnet.default(t(data), targets, size = 4, rang = 0.1, decay = 5e-04, : Too many (1614) weights > dim(targets) [1] 146 2 > dim(data) ## Note

Hi All, I am trying to use a neural network for my work, but I am not sure about my approach to select a parsimonious model. In R with nnet, the IAC has not been defined for a feed-forward neural network with a single hidden layer. Is this because it does not make sens mathematically in this case? For example, is this pseudo code sensible? Thanks in advance for your help. I am sorry if this

Hi R-helpers, Can some one tell me how to train 'mynn' of this type?: mynn <- nnet(y ~ x1 + ..+ x8, data = lgist, size = 2, rang = 0.1, decay = 5e-4, maxit = 200) I assume that this nn is untrained, and to train I have to split the original data into train:test data set, do leave-one-out refitting to refine the weights (please straighten this up if I was wrong). I just don't know

HI, Dear R community, My data set has 2409 variables, the last one is response variable. I have used the nnet after feature selection and works. But this time, I am using nnet to fit a model without feature selection. I got the following error information: > dim(train) [1] 1827 2409 nnet.fit<-nnet(as.factor(out) ~ ., data=train, size=3, rang=0.3, decay=5e-4, maxit=500) # model

Hi, I am trying to run a nnet algorithm but when I try to use the predict function with type='class', it gives the following error: fit <- nnet(y~., size = 1, data = train.set, rang = 0.5, maxit=200, decay = 0) predict<-predict(fit,test.set,type='class') Error in predict.nnet(fit, test.set, type = "class") : inappropriate fit for class I couldn't figure

Hello, I've been working with "nnet" and now I'd like to use the weigths, from the fitted model, to iterpret some of variables impornatce. I used the following command: mts <- nnet(y=Y,x=X,size =4, rang = 0.1, decay = 5e-4, maxit = 5000,linout=TRUE) X is (m x n) Y is (m x 1) And then I get the coeficients by: Wts<-coef(mts) b->h1 i1->h1

Hi. The there is an example in nnet help which is pasted in below. I am not sure how they are generating 'targets'. What is the 'class.ind() function doing? In the help docs for it they say "Generates a class indicator function from a given factor." I tried putting a simple vector of the "classes" into test.cl (below) but I get an error of "(list) object

Hi there, I´ve a question concerning the nnet package in the area of survival analysis: what is the final value, which is computed to fit the model with the following nnet-c all: net <- nnet(cat~x, data=d, size=2, decay=0.1, censored=TRUE, maxit=20, Wts=rep(0,22), Hess=TRUE) where cat is a matrix with a row for each record and
