Sparse Group Partial Least Squares (sgPLS)

Description

Function to perform sparse group Partial Least Squares (sgPLS) in the conext of datasets are divided into groups of variables. The sgPLS approach enables selection at both groups and single feature levels.

Usage

sgPLS(X, Y, ncomp, mode = "regression",
     max.iter = 500, tol = 1e-06, keepX, 
     keepY = NULL,ind.block.x, ind.block.y = NULL, alpha.x, alpha.y = NULL,
     upper.lambda = 10 ^ 5,scale=TRUE)

Arguments

X

Numeric matrix of predictors.

Y

Numeric vector or matrix of responses (for multi-response models).

ncomp

The number of components to include in the model (see Details).

mode

character string. What type of algorithm to use, (partially) matching one of "regression" or "canonical". See Details.

max.iter

Integer, the maximum number of iterations.

tol

A positive real, the tolerance used in the iterative algorithm.

keepX

Numeric vector of length ncomp, the number of variables to keep in X-loadings. By default all variables are kept in the model.

keepY

Numeric vector of length ncomp, the number of variables to keep in Y-loadings. By default all variables are kept in the model.

ind.block.x

A vector of integers describing the grouping of the X variables. (see an example in Details section).

ind.block.y

A vector of integers describing the grouping of the Y variables (see example in Details section).

alpha.x

The mixing parameter (value between 0 and 1) related to the sparsity within group for the X dataset.

alpha.y

The mixing parameter (value between 0 and 1) related to the sparsity within group for the Y dataset.

upper.lambda

By default upper.lambda=10 ^ 5. A large value specifying the upper bound of the intervall of lambda values for searching the value of the tuning parameter (lambda) corresponding to a non-zero group of variables.

scale

a logical indicating if the orignal data set need to be scaled. By default scale=TRUE

Details

sgPLS function fit gPLS models with 1, \ldots ,ncomp components. Multi-response models are fully supported.

The type of algorithm to use is specified with the mode argument. Two gPLS algorithms are available: gPLS regression ("regression") and gPLS canonical analysis ("canonical") (see References).

ind.block.x <- c(3, 10, 15) means that X is structured into 4 groups: X1 to X3; X4 to X10, X11 to X15 and X16 to Xp where p is the number of variables in the X matrix.

Value

sgPLS returns an object of class "sgPLS", a list that contains the following components:

X

The centered and standardized original predictor matrix.

Y

The centered and standardized original response vector or matrix.

ncomp

The number of components included in the model.

mode

The algorithm used to fit the model.

keepX

Number of X variables kept in the model on each component.

keepY

Number of Y variables kept in the model on each component.

mat.c

Matrix of coefficients to be used internally by predict.

variates

List containing the variates.

loadings

List containing the estimated loadings for the X and Y variates.

names

List containing the names to be used for individuals and variables.

tol

The tolerance used in the iterative algorithm, used for subsequent S3 methods.

max.iter

The maximum number of iterations, used for subsequent S3 methods.

iter

Vector containing the number of iterations for convergence in each component.

ind.block.x

A vector of integers describing the grouping of the X variables.

ind.block.y

A vector of consecutive integers describing the grouping of the Y variables.

alpha.x

The mixing parameter related to the sparsity within group for the X dataset.

alpha.y

The mixing parameter related to the sparsity within group for the Y dataset.

upper.lambda

The upper bound of the intervall of lambda values for searching the value of the tuning parameter (lambda) corresponding to a non-zero group of variables.
