buildLambda: Auxiliary function to generate suitable lambda parameters

In glmSparseNet: Network Centrality Metrics for Elastic-Net Regularized Models

Description

Auxiliary function to generate suitable lambda parameters

Usage

buildLambda(
  lambda.largest = NULL,
  xdata = NULL,
  ydata = NULL,
  family = NULL,
  orders.of.magnitude.smaller = 3,
  lambda.per.order.magnitude = 150
)

Arguments

lambda.largest	numeric value for largest number of lambda to consider (usually with a target of 1 selected variable)
xdata	X parameter for glmnet function
ydata	Y parameter for glmnet function
family	family parameter to glmnet function
orders.of.magnitude.smaller	minimum value for lambda (lambda.largest / 10^orders.of.magnitude.smaller)
lambda.per.order.magnitude	how many lambdas to create for each order of magnitude

Value

a numeric vector with suitable lambdas

Examples

buildLambda(5.4)
