bglmnet {mplot}

Model stability and variable importance plots for glmnet

Description

Model stability and variable importance plots for glmnet

Usage

bglmnet(
  mf,
  nlambda = 100,
  lambda = NULL,
  B = 100,
  penalty.factor,
  screen = FALSE,
  redundant = TRUE,
  cores = NULL,
  force.in = NULL,
  seed = NULL
)

Arguments

mf

a fitted 'full' model, the result of a call to lm or glm.

nlambda

how many penalty values to consider. Default = 100.

lambda

manually specify the penalty values (optional).

B

number of bootstrap replications

penalty.factor

Separate penalty factors can be applied to each coefficient. This is a number that multiplies lambda to allow differential shrinkage. Can be 0 for some variables, which implies no shrinkage, and that variable is always included in the model. Default is 1 for all variables (and implicitly infinity for variables listed in exclude). Note: the penalty factors are internally rescaled to sum to nvars, and the lambda sequence will reflect this change.

screen

logical, whether or not to perform an initial screen for outliers. Highly experimental, use at own risk. Default = FALSE.

redundant

logical, whether or not to add a redundant variable. Default = TRUE.

cores

number of cores to be used when parallel processing the bootstrap (Not yet implemented.)

force.in

the names of variables that should be forced into all estimated models. (Not yet implemented.)

seed

random seed for reproducible results

Details

The result of this function is essentially just a list. The supplied plot method provides a way to visualise the results.

Examples

n = 100
set.seed(11)
e = rnorm(n)
x1 = rnorm(n)
x2 = rnorm(n)
x3 = x1^2
x4 = x2^2
x5 = x1*x2
y = 1 + x1 + x2 + e
dat = data.frame(y, x1, x2, x3, x4, x5)
lm1 = lm(y ~ ., data = dat)

## Not run: 
bg1 = bglmnet(lm1, seed = 1)
# plot(bg1, which = "boot_size", interactive = TRUE)
plot(bg1, which = "boot_size", interactive = FALSE)
# plot(bg1, which = "vip", interactive = TRUE)
plot(bg1, which = "vip", interactive = FALSE)

## End(Not run)
