Hi all, I'm doing some within-dataset model validation and would like to subset a dataset 70/30 and fit a model to 70% of the data (the training data), then validate it by predicting the remaining 30% (the testing data), and I would like to do this split-sample validation 1000 times and average the correlation coefficient and r2 between the training and testing data.
I have the following working for a single iteration, and would like to know how to use either the replicate() or for-loop functions to average the 1000 'r2' and 'cor' outputs. -- # create 70% training sample A.samp <- sample(1:nrow(A),floor(0.7*nrow(A)), replace = TRUE) # Fit model (I'm modeling native plant richness, 'nat.r') A.model <- glmmadmb(nat.r ~ isl.sz + nr.mead, random = ~ 1 | site, family = "poisson", data = A[A.samp,]) # Use the model to predict the remaining 30% of the data A.pred <- predict(A.model, newdata = A[-A.samp,], type = "response") # Correlation between predicted 30% and actual 30% cor <- cor(A[-A.samp,]$nat.r, A.pred, method = "pearson") # r2 between predicted and observed lm.A <- lm(A.pred ~ A[-A.samp,]$nat.r) r2 <- summary(lm.A)$r.squared # print values r2 cor -- Thanks for your time!
