Hi all, Could you please give me some pointers about what's the best boosting package in R currently? in terms of classification accuracy? And any pointers about tutorials and study-materials to curb the learning curve will be greatly appreciated! Thank you! p.s. Does anybody happen to know Boosting implemented in other language such as Matlab? Are they good in terms of accuracy? What

Dear all, I'm looking for some material on data mining with R. I have something from Luis Torgo but I'd like to see something else. If anybody could help me I'll be thankful Adri??n

Hi all, I am looking for pointers to good hands-on books on multivariate statistics and data-mining with R? So that I could learn while doing experiments... Thanks a lot!

Hi all, Could anybody give me some pointers to Cross Validation using Lifting Score as error function, as commonly used in data-mining and classification field in marketing and e-commerce research? Thanks!

Hi all, Could you please help me? I am looking for books/pointers/resources/tutorials on visualizing complex/big data and on understanding multivariate relations in complicated data. More specifically, we have categorical variables and are interested in how to visualize the categorical data and visualize data conditioned upon categorical values. Could anybody please give me some pointers?

Hi, and sorry for asking such an unspecific question. Does anybody know of statistical / data mining methods that are available in R that are not in SAS ? With SAS I mean the SAS System Version 9.4 and SAS Enterprise Miner. I don't expect a complete list, just two or three examples or hints where and what to look for. I found some older comparisons, and the R methods mentioned there

Dear All, I am recycling a previous email of mine where I asked some questions about clustering mixed numerical/categorical data. This time I am more into data mining. I am given a set of known statistical indexes {s_i}, i=1,2...N for a N countries. These indexes in general are a both numerical and categorical variables. For each country, I also have a property x_i whose value is known, but

Hai all, We are working on Multi-class Classification. Currently up to 1.1 million records Ranger package in R is able to handle. Training time on 128 GB RAM is 12 days, which is not a practically feasible method to proceed further. In future we will have dataset of dimension 10 million records, we are in search for a package or framework which can handle 10 million records with at least 12000

Dear R users, I'm new of the R, I really don't know much. I want classification some data (two class, many features and huge size of data) by using R. At this case, I want using Support Vector Machine, Bayes theory based classifier, Discriminant Analysis, Regression based at least. Which package should I using, and can I compare each classifier result by predictions? Thank you.

Hi everyone, Could somebody explain to me what is the package/function for classification analysis. I am performing analysis of music files in the form of MIDI files. I end up with about 750 dependent variables from the analysis, I also have a number of independent/grouping variables that I set manually. What I would like is to be able to predict which group a particular MIDI files belongs to

Hi all, I am doing binary classification and want to improve the classification results on imbalanced response data. Currently the performance is poor. Are there ways I could improve the performance? I could either try different classification methodologies, or try exploring the data more, and throwing away noisy data, and manipulate the data more before sending into the classifiers. I was

Hi, I am currently find myself selecting manually amoungts several hundreds Google Alerts (GA) texts those that are indeed relevant for my research vs those which are not (despite they are triggered by some relevant seach keywords). Basically each week I get several hundreds GA email such as:

Anyone know if it is possible to get the R scripts used in the "The Elements of Statistical Learning" book? It is a great book but sometimes some help would be useful to replicate the results presented in the book and so, understood things better. Thanks Manuel -- View this message in context:

Hi all, I am trying to play around with the randomForest function for classification. I know its performance is great. I am currently using the default options. It has many options. How do I further tweak the options so that I can make its performance even better? What are the options that are mostly used? Thanks a lot! M [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi all, What parameter do I normally change in the rpart function? How do I set the "cp" option? Is there a way to read off error rate directly from the "rpart" function for training data; I imagine for testing data I have to apply a "predict", but for training data I guess the error count would be somewhere existing once the "rpart" function is

Luca: 1. We are not a consulting service. We *help* with R pogramming issues. Users are typically expected to make an effort by providing R code and, if appropriate, small data sets that illustrate their difficulties. 2. SEARCH! e.g. on "text processing R" or some such; or try Rseek.org with such searches. R has extensive text processing capabilities, e.g. via regex's. 3.

Hallo to everybody, I would like to perform an analysis but I don't know how to proceed and whether R packages are available for my purpose or not. Therefore I'm here to request your support. *The idea is the following:* I noticed that the names of the towns and villages in northern Italy most of the time sound differently from names of cities based on southern Italy. Just to give you an

Hi all, I am looking for a good book that covers Machine Learning as a whole and provides examples in R while not over focusing on the math (such as in 'Elements of Statistical Learning') but rather on descriptions and examples. I am relatively new to R and ML and, while solving problems with R, I want to learn the main concepts, techniques and problem categories. Can anybody here
