plot.pense_cvfit {pense}

Plot Method for Penalized Estimates With Cross-Validation

Description

Plot the cross-validation performance or the coefficient path for fitted penalized elastic net S- or LS-estimates of regression.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'pense_cvfit'
plot(x, what = c("cv", "coef.path"), alpha = NULL, se_mult = 1, ...)

Arguments

x

fitted estimates with cross-validation information.

what

plot either the CV performance or the coefficient path.

alpha

If what = "cv", only CV performance for fits with matching alpha are plotted. In case alpha is missing or NULL, all fits in x are plotted. If what = "coef.path", plot the coefficient path for the fit with the given hyper-parameter value or, in case alpha is missing, for the first value in x$alpha.

se_mult

if plotting CV performance, multiplier of the estimated SE.

...

Examples

# Compute the PENSE regularization path for Freeny's revenue data
# (see ?freeny)
data(freeny)
x <- as.matrix(freeny[ , 2:5])

regpath <- pense(x, freeny$y, alpha = 0.5)
plot(regpath)

# Extract the coefficients at a certain penalization level
coef(regpath, lambda = regpath$lambda[[1]][[40]])

# What penalization level leads to good prediction performance?
set.seed(123)
cv_results <- pense_cv(x, freeny$y, alpha = 0.5,
                       cv_repl = 2, cv_k = 4)
plot(cv_results, se_mult = 1)

# Extract the coefficients at the penalization level with
# smallest prediction error ...
coef(cv_results)
# ... or at the penalization level with prediction error
# statistically indistinguishable from the minimum.
coef(cv_results, lambda = '1-se')
