cutpoint_knots

data

<p>(character) The name of the predictor variable</p>

<p>This function calculates the number of knots
when using smoothing splines for smoothing a function of metric values per
cutpoint value. The function for calculating the number of knots is equal
to <code>stats::.nknots_smspl</code> but uses the number of unique cutpoints
in the data as n.</p>

Estimate cutpoints that optimize a specified metric in binary classification tasks
and validate performance using bootstrapping. Some methods for more robust cutpoint
estimation are supported, e.g. a parametric method assuming normal distributions,
bootstrapped cutpoints, and smoothing of the metric values per cutpoint using
Generalized Additive Models. Various plotting functions are included. For an overview
of the package see Thiele and Hirschfeld (2021) <doi:10.18637/jss.v098.i11>.
