skda (version 0.1)

cvskda: Cross validation for SKDA

Description

This function implements cross validation for the sparse (multicategory) kernel discriminant analysis (skda).

Usage

cvskda(x,y, taus, nfolds=10, method="Bayes")

Arguments

x

a matrix ( n X p ) that contains predictors.

y

a vector that contains the categorical response coded as 1, 2, ..., K.

taus

a vector that contains the candidate regularization parameters.

nfolds

the number of folds used in cross validation.

method

method (mle or Bayes) to be used in the KDA classifier.

Value

lam

the best solution tuned by cross validation
