glmLiteBoostTV: Boost an rtemis learner for regression

Description

Perform regression by boosting a base learner

Usage

glmLiteBoostTV(x, y = NULL, x.valid = NULL, y.valid = NULL,
  x.test = NULL, y.test = NULL, resid = NULL, boost.obj = NULL,
  mod.params = list(), weights.p = 1, weights.0 = 0,
  weights = NULL, learning.rate = 0.1, max.iter = 10, init = NULL,
  seed = NULL, x.name = NULL, y.name = NULL, question = NULL,
  base.verbose = FALSE, verbose = TRUE, trace = 0,
  print.progress.every = 5, print.error.plot = "final",
  prefix = NULL, plot.theme = getOption("rt.fit.theme", "lightgrid"),
  plot.fitted = NULL, plot.predicted = NULL, print.plot = FALSE,
  print.base.plot = FALSE, plot.type = "l", n.cores = rtCores,
  outdir = NULL, ...)

Arguments

Numeric vector or matrix / data frame of features i.e. independent variables

Numeric vector of outcome, i.e. dependent variable

x.valid

Data.frame; optional: Validation data

y.valid

Float, vector; optional: Validation outcome

x.test

Numeric vector or matrix / data frame of testing set features Columns must correspond to columns in x

y.test

Numeric vector of testing set outcome

resid

Float, vector, length = length(y): Residuals to work on. Do not change unless you know what you're doing. Default = NULL, for regular boosting

boost.obj

[Internal use]

mod.params

Named list of arguments for glmLite

weights

Numeric vector: Weights for cases. For classification, weights takes precedence over ipw, therefore set weights = NULL if using ipw. Note: If weight are provided, ipw is not used. Leave NULL if setting ipw = TRUE. Default = NULL

learning.rate

Float (0, 1] Learning rate for the additive steps

max.iter

Integer: Maximum number of iterations (additive steps) to perform. Default = 10

init

Float: Initial value for prediction. Default = mean(y)

x.name

Character: Name for feature set

y.name

Character: Name for outcome

question

String: the question you are attempting to answer with this model, in plain language.

base.verbose

Logical: verbose argument passed to learner

verbose

Logical: If TRUE, print summary to screen.

trace

Integer: If > 0, print diagnostic info to console

print.progress.every

Integer: Print progress over this many iterations

print.error.plot

String or Integer: "final" plots a training and validation (if available) error curve at the end of training. If integer, plot training and validation error curve every this many iterations during training. "none" for no plot.

prefix

Internal

plot.theme

String: "zero", "dark", "box", "darkbox"

plot.fitted

Logical: if TRUE, plot True (y) vs Fitted

plot.predicted

Logical: if TRUE, plot True (y.test) vs Predicted. Requires x.test and y.test

print.plot

Logical: if TRUE, produce plot using mplot3 Takes precedence over plot.fitted and plot.predicted

print.base.plot

Logical: Passed to print.plot argument of base learner, i.e. if TRUE, print error plot for each base learner

plot.type

String: "l" or "p". Plot using lines or points. Default = "l"

outdir

Path to output directory. If defined, will save Predicted vs. True plot, if available, as well as full model output, if save.mod is TRUE

...

Additional parameters to be passed to glmLite

Details

If learning.rate is set to 0, a nullmod will be created
