ML.GLMnet.Rd
Wrapper for a glmnet estimator. From their discription: Extremely efficient procedures for fitting the entire lasso or elastic-net regularization path for linear regression, logistic and multinomial regression models, Poisson regression and the Cox model. Two recent additions are the multiple-response Gaussian, and the grouped multinomial regression. The algorithm uses cyclical coordinate descent in a path-wise fashion, as described in http://www.jstatsoft.org/v33/i01.
ML.GLMnet
An object of class R6ClassGenerator
of length 24.
initialize(family = "binomial", alpha = 0.5, nlambda = 100, verbose = FALSE)
Creates a new GLMnet model @param family string (default = "binomial") the family to use for the estimator. Generally this should be binomial (since we are running various logistic regressions). However, if you have a good reason to use a different specification, change it here. @param alpha double (default = 0.5) the elasticnet mixing parameter, with $0 <= alpha <= 1$. $alpha=1$ is the lasso penalty, and $alpha=0$ the ridge penalty. @param nlambda integer (default = 100) the number of lambda values. @param verbose (default = FALSE) the verbosity of the fitting procedure
get_validity
Active method. Checks whether the specified configuration is valid. @return boolean, true if it is a valid configuration.
