SL.mgcv: Wrapper for mgcv's gam implementation

Description

Wrapper for mgcv's gam implementation.

Usage

SL.mgcv(
  Y,
  X,
  newX,
  family,
  obsWeights = NULL,
  id = NULL,
  degree = -1,
  continuous_values = 5,
  smooth_fn = "s",
  exclude_spline = NULL,
  method = "REML",
  select = TRUE,
  gamma = 1,
  formula_rhs = NULL,
  ...
)

Arguments

Y

Outcome variable

X

Covariate dataframe

newX

Optional dataframe to predict the outcome

family

"gaussian" for regression, "binomial" for binary classification

obsWeights

Optional observation-level weights (supported but not tested)

id

Optional id to group observations from the same unit (not used currently).

degree

Dimension of the basis expansion, default 2.

continuous_values

Variables with this or more unique values are considered continuous and will be incorporated as spline terms.

smooth_fn

"s", "te", "ti", or "t2"

exclude_spline

Variable names for which not to spline, even if they meet the continuous variable definition.

method

"REML" (default), "GCV.Cp", "GACV.Cp", "P-REML", "ML", "P-ML"

select

If covariates can be removed entirely due to a penalty.

gamma

Gamma setting, default 1.

formula_rhs

Custom RHS formula, if built-in options are insufficient.

...

Any remaining arguments, not used.
