similar to: caret package: arguments passed to the classification or regression routine

Hi, I am trying to construct a svmpoly model using the "caret" package (please see code below). Using the same data, without changing any setting, I am just changing the seed value. Sometimes it constructs the model successfully, and sometimes I get an ?Error in indexes[[j]] : subscript out of bounds?. For example when I set seed to 357 following code produced result only for 8

Hello, Is the first time I am using SNOW package and I am trying to tune the cost parameter for a linear SVM, where the cost (variable cost1) takes 10 values between 0.5 and 30. I have a large dataset and a pc which is not very powerful, so I need to tune the parameters using both CPUs of the pc. Somehow I cannot manage to do it. It seems that both CPUs are fitting the model for the same values

This question concerns rpart's facility for user-defined functions that accomplish splitting. I was interested in modifying the code so that in each terminal node, a linear regression is fit to the data. It seems that from the allowable inputs in the user-defined functions, that this may not be possible, since they have the form: function(y, wt, parms) (in the case of the

I'm looking for guidance on how to implement forward stepwise regression using lmStepAIC in Caret. The stepwise "direction" appears to default to "backward". When I try to use "scope" to provide a lower and upper model, Caret still seems to default to "backward". Any thoughts on how I can make this work? Here is what I tried: itemonly <-

I'm using caret to assess classifier performance (and it's great!). However, I've found that my results differ between R2.* and R3.* - reported accuracies are reduced dramatically. I suspect that a code change to kernlab ksvm may be responsible (see version 5.16-24 here: http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/caret/news.html). I get very different results between caret_5.15-61 +

I am used to packages like e1071 where you have a tune step and then pass your tunings to train. It seems with caret, tuning and training are both handled by train. I am using train and trainControl to find my hyper parameters like so: MyTrainControl=trainControl( method = "cv", number=5, returnResamp = "all", classProbs = TRUE ) rbfSVM <- train(label~., data =

Good afternoon Has anyone tried using Dr. Elith's BRT script? I cannot seem to run gbm.step from the installed gbm package. Is it something external to gbm? When I run the script itself <- gbm.step(data=model.data, gbm.x = colx:coly, gbm.y = colz, family = "bernoulli", tree.complexity = 5, learning.rate = 0.01, bag.fraction = 0.5) ... I

I recently use gbm for a binary classification problem. As expected, it gets very good results, based on Area under ROC with 7-fold cross validation. However, the application (malware detection) is cost-sensitive, getting a FP (classify a clean sample as a dirty one) is much worse than getting a FN (miss a dirty sample). I would like to tune the gbm model biased to very low FP rate. For this

I color some area grey with polygon() (with a red border) and then I want to have the dashed red border in the legend as well. How do I manage it? And I want to mix (latex) expressions with text in my legend. Just execute my lines below and you know want I mean. Or pass by at http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bild:GBM.png to see the picture online.

Dear all, the help file for predict.gbm states that "The predictions from gbm do not include the offset term. The user may add the value of the offset to the predicted value if desired." I am just not sure how exactly, especially for a Poisson model, where I believe the offset is multiplicative ? For example: library(MASS) fit1 <- glm(Claims ~ District + Group + Age +

Hi, I have a geforce 4mx 440 agp 8x, and I'm trying to use the GBM library, (as jbarnes in: http://virtuousgeek.org/blog/index.php/jbarnes/2011/10/ and David Hermann in KMSCON: https://github.com/dvdhrm/kmscon), without success. when I try to create a gbm_device, I get: (below the code.) nouveau_drm_screen_create: unknown chipset nv18 dri_init_screen_helper: failed to create pipe_screen

Dear gbm users, When running predict.gbm() on a "large" dataset (150,000 rows, 300 columns, 500 trees), I notice that the memory used by R grows beyond reasonable limits. My 14GB of RAM are often not sufficient. I am interpreting this as a memory leak since there should be no reason to expand memory needs once the data are loaded and passed to predict.gbm() ? Running R version 2.9.2 on

HI, Dear Greg, I AM A NEW to GBM package. Can boosting decision tree be implemented in 'gbm' package? Or 'gbm' can only be used for regression? IF can, DO I need to combine the rpart and gbm command? Thanks so much! -- Sincerely, Changbin -- [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hola de nuevo. Se me olvidaba la principal razón para utilizar gbm.step del paquete dismo. Como sabéis, los boosted si sobreajustan (a diferencia de los random forest o cualquier otro bootstrap) pero gbm.step hace validación cruzada para determinar el nº óptimo de árboles y evitarlo. Es fundamental. La opción que me queda, Carlos, es hacerlo con gbm, pero muchas veces, y usar el

Gracias Carlos, mi idea es construir un cono, un cilindro u otros cuerpos geométrico y luego graficarlos. Alguna idea de como empezar?

Hi R User, I was trying to find a final model in the following example by using the Boosted regression trees (GBM). The program gives the fitted values but I wanted to calculate the fitted value by hand to understand in depth. Would you give moe some hints on what is the final model for this example? Thanks KG ------- The following script I used #----------------------- library(dismo)

Dear All, I am far from being a guru 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 =

 Hello   I have questions about gbm package.  It seems we have to devide data to two part (training set and test set) for first.   1- trainig set for running of gbm function 2- test set for gbm.perf      is it rigth? I have 123 sample that I devided 100 for trainig and 23 for test.   So, parameter of cv.folds in gbm function is for what?   Thanks alot Azam       [[alternative HTML
