MarginOrderedPruning.Bagging

MarginOrderedPruning.Bagging


Description

Margin-based ordered aggregation for bagging pruning

Usage

MarginOrderedPruning.Bagging(baggingObject, trainingset, pruningset, 
	marginType = "unsupervised", doTrace = TRUE)

Arguments

baggingObject

fitted model object of class bagging

trainingset

the training set of the bagging object

pruningset

a set aside dataset for bagging pruning

marginType

if "unsupervised" (by default) the margin is the difference between the proportions of votes of the first and second most popular classes. Else the margin is calculated as the difference between the proportion of votes of the correct class and the most popular among the other classes

doTrace

If set to TRUE, give a more verbose output as MarginOrderedPruning.Bagging is running

Value

Returns a list with the following components:

prunedBagging

a pruned bagging object

AccuracyOrderedEnsemblePruningSet

Accuracy of each ordered ensemble on pruning set

Examples

## mlbench package should be loaded
library(mlbench)
data(Satellite)
## Separate data into 3 parts: training set, pruning set and test set
ind <- sample(3, nrow(Satellite), replace = TRUE, prob=c(0.3, 0.2,0.5))

## create bagging with training set
#increase mfinal in your own execution of this example to see 
#the real usefulness of this function
Satellite.bagging<-bagging(classes~.,data=Satellite[ind==1,],mfinal=3)
#Satellite.bagging.pred<-predict(Satellite.bagging,Satellite[ind==3,])

##pruning bagging
Satellite.bagging.pruning<-MarginOrderedPruning.Bagging(Satellite.bagging,
Satellite[ind==1,],Satellite[ind==2,])
#Satellite.bagging.pruning.pred<-predict(Satellite.bagging.pruning$prunedBagging,
#Satellite[ind==3,])

## create bagging with training and pruning set
#This example has been hidden to fulfill execution time <5s 
#Satellite.bagging2<-bagging(classes~.,data=Satellite[ind!=3,],25)
#Satellite.bagging2.pred<-predict(Satellite.bagging2,Satellite[ind==3,])
