Hi, I found some of what I was looking for.
using the following I can get a matrix of regression coefficient multiplied out by the variable data. g<-predict(comodel,type='terms',data4) m<-cbind(data4,g) What remains is how do I pick the 3-4 rows for each data row with the highest values? I need to get the column names of the top 3 coefficients from this matrix. Some looping through for each row and pick the top 3 highest coefficient/variable products and then getting the columns names for these 3. is there an easy way to get this in an R function? thanks Dhruv --- On Mon 07/07, Jorge Ivan Velez < [EMAIL PROTECTED] > wrote: From: Jorge Ivan Velez [mailto: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Mon, 7 Jul 2008 21:42:54 -0400 Subject: Re: [R] question on lm or glm matrix of coeficients X test data terms That's R: you come out with solutions every time.

I've been thinking about a little bit. If you want to include/exclude variables to estimate your outcome, you could try something like this:# data set (10 rows, 10 columns) set.seed(123)X=matrix(rpois(100,10),ncol=10)# Function to estimate your outcomeoutcome=function(x,betas){if(length(x)!=length(betas)) stop("x and beta have different lengths!") y=x*betasy}# let's assume that you want to include x1, x4, x7 and x9 only# by using beta1=0.5, beta4=0.6, beta7=-0.1, beta9=0.3betas=c(0.5,0,0,0.6,0,0,-0.1,0,0.3,0)# Resultst(apply(X,1,outcome, betas=betas)) HTH,JorgeOn Mon, Jul 7, 2008 at 9:11 PM, Jorge Ivan Velez <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Dear Dhruv,The short answer is not, because the function I built doesn't work for more variables than coefficients (see the "stop" I introduced). You should do some modifications such as coefficients equals to 1 or 0. For example: # data set (10 rows, 10 columns)set.seed(123)X=matrix(rpois(100,10),ncol=10)X# Function to estimate your outcomeoutcome=function(x,betas,val){k=length(x)nb=length(betas) if(length(x)!=length(betas)) betas=c(betas, rep(val,k-nb)) y=x*betasy}# beta1=1, beta2=2, the rest is equal to zerot(apply(X,1,outcome,betas=c(1,2),val=0))# beta1=0.5, beta2=0.6, the rest is equal to 1 t(apply(X,1,outcome,betas=c(1,2),val=1)) HTH,JorgeOn Mon, Jul 7, 2008 at 8:57 PM, DS <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: thanks Jorge. I appreciate your quick help. Will this work if I have 20 columns of data but my regression only has 5 variables? I am looking for something generic where I can give it my model and test data and get back a vector of the multiplied coefficients (with no hard coding). When predict is called with an input model and data, R must be multiplying all co-efficients times variables and summing the number but is there a way to get components of the regressiom terms stored in a matrix before they are added? The idea is to build n models with various terms and after producing a prediction list the top 3 variables that had the biggest impact in that particular set of predictor values. e.g. if I build a model to predict default of loans I would then need to list the top factors in the model that can be used to explain why the loan is risky. With 10-16 variables which can be present or not for each case there be a different 2 or 3 variables that led to the said prediction.

This is a one row example but I would want to get a matrix of multiplied out coefficients and terms for use in comparing contribution of variables to final score. As in a scorecard using logistic regression.
