boot.err {mt}

Calculate .632 and .632+ Bootstrap Error Rate

Description

Calculate .632 bootstrap and .632 plus bootstrap error rate.

Usage

boot.err(err, resub)       

Arguments

err

Average error rate of bootstrap samples.

resub

A list including apparent error rate, class label and the predicted class label of the original training data (not resampled training data). Can be generated by classifier.

Value

A list with the following components:

ae

Apparent error rate.

boot

Average error rate of bootstrap samples(Same as err)

b632

.632 bootstrap error rate.

b632p

.632 plus bootstrap error rate.

Examples

## iris data set
data(iris)
x      <- subset(iris, select = -Species)
y      <- iris$Species

## 10 bootstrap training samples 
pars   <- valipars(sampling = "boot", niter = 1, nreps = 10)
tr.idx <- trainind(y, pars=pars)[[1]]

## bootstrap error rate
err <- sapply(tr.idx, function(i){
  pred <- classifier(x[i,,drop = FALSE],y[i],x[-i,,drop = FALSE],y[-i], 
                     method = "knn")$err
})

## average bootstrap error rate
err <- mean(err)

## apparent error rate
resub  <- classifier(x,y,method = "knn")

## 
err.boot <- boot.err(err, resub)
