I use Windows, R version 2.5.1 When I try to run stepclass (klaR) I get an error message/warning saying:
1: error(s) in modeling/prediction step in: cv.rate(vars = c(model, tryvar), data = data, grouping = grouping, ... Actually, I look 16 warnings of this type. Can anyone tell me what this means? Also, it returns only 2 out of the 79 variables as important, however these variables don't make any biological sense... Might this be a problem of my coding? Here's some code and sample matrix: >library(klaR) >var <- read.table("C:\\Documents and Settings\\My Documents\\silvia\\data\\variables.txt", header=T) ## matrix of 79 variables >disp<- read.table("C:\\Documents and Settings\\My Documents\\silvia\\data\\disperser.txt", header=T) ## vector defining my groups >disp<- as.factor(disp$disperser) >data.step <- stepclass(var, disp, "lda", improvement = 0.05) Sample matrix: var: P5.38 P6.45 P6.55 P6.63 P6.78 P6.87 P7.12 P7.42 P8.10 P8.88 P9.09 P9.30 P9.49 P9.55 0.00 11.08 3.16 0.76 0.40 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.64 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 1.63 0.00 6.89 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 4.78 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 131.56 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 5.05 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 16.00 9.59 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.88 0.48 0.89 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.16 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.21 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.75 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 5.41 20.62 8.13 8.87 8.27 12.51 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 133.24 0.00 0.73 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 1.34 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 1.32 0.00 1.81 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 7.26 8.16 1.50 0.00 0.00 0.00 1.97 1.28 0.00 0.00 0.00 1.16 0.00 0.00 0.00 1.48 0.22 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 1.80 0.66 0.47 0.47 0.75 0.00 0.00 1.34 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 1.14 0.00 0.00 72.65 103.26 1.09 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.82 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 4.79 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 11.44 2.33 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 3.13 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.83 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 23.14 0.00 0.00 0.00 1.19 4.81 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 7.92 0.00 14.29 36.64 0.00 82.87 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 disp: disperser 1 1 1 1 1 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 3 3 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/help-with-stepclass-%28klaR%29-tf4563856.html#a13025946 Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
