Hi, I'm switch over from RapidMiner to R. (The learning curve is steep, but there is so much more I can do with R and it runs much faster overall.)
In RapidMiner, I can "tune" a parameter of my svm in a nice cross validation loop. The process will print out the progress as it goes. So for a 5x cross tuning for the value of C with auc as my performance measure, I see XV C AUC 1 1 .5 2 1 .48 3 1 .51 4 1 .52 1 2 .52 2 2 .54 3 2 .53 4 2 .52 1 3 .6 2 3 .61 3 3 .6 4 3 .59 etc... RapidMiner then takes the average for each value of C and reports back the best one. RapidMiner will even graph the progress with C on the X axis and AUC on the Y axis so I can see how the process is doing. (This is nice when training a large range of C so I can tell if it is worth stopping the process early. I can even train 2 or more variables at a time in a big "grid" of combination is 5x cross validation for each combo. i.e. 10 values for C and 10 values for gamma gives 100 combinations with 5x cross validation for each for a total of 500 executions. Is there anyway to do something similar to this in R. I've come across the "tune" function, but don't entirely understand all the options. Additionally, I don't see how to output the progress as it goes. (also, setting number of XV, averaging of scores, etc.) Does anybody have any ideas?
