copulaClassifier: Trains a classification model using copula functions.

In MLCOPULA: Classification Models with Copula Functions

Trains a classification model using copula functions.

Description

It trains a classification model based on copulas. The dependence structure of the joint density is built by using a graphical model along with bivariate copulas, as shown in Salinas-Gutiérrez et al., 2014.

Usage

copulaClassifier(
  X,
  y,
  distribution = "kernel",
  copula = "frank",
  weights = "likelihood",
  graph_model = "tree",
  k = 7,
  m = 7,
  method_grid = "ml"
)

Arguments

X	Data frame with n samples and d>1 predictor variables.
y	a vector of size n, with the classes to predict.
distribution	Marginal distribution to be used: "normal" or "kernel", by default kernel.
copula	Either a character or a string vector with the name of the copula to be used: "amh", "clayton", "frank", "gaussian", "grid", "gumbel", "independent" and "joe", by default "frank". For parametric copulas, "amh", "clayton", "frank", "gaussian", "gumbel", and "joe", one or more copulas can be selected. For nonparametric copula, only "grid" can be selected. See the examples for more details.
weights	A character with the weight construction method for the graphical model: "likelihood" or "mutual_information", by default "likelihood".
graph_model	A character with the graphical model structure: "tree" or "chain", by default "tree".
k	Only for the grid copula. Positive integer indicating the number of subintervals for the U_2 variable.
m	Only for the grid copula. Positive integer indicating the number of subintervals for the U_1 variable.
method_grid	Only for the grid copula. Fitting method, least squares "ls" or maximum likelihood "ml", by default "ml".

Value

Returns a trained model.

Examples

# Example 1
X <- iris[,1:4]
y <- iris$Species
model <- copulaClassifier(X = X, y = y, copula = "frank",
                      distribution = "kernel", graph_model = "tree")
y_pred <- copulaPredict(X = X, model = model)
classification_report(y_true = y, y_pred = y_pred$class)

# Example 2
X <- iris[,1:4]
y <- iris$Species
model <- copulaClassifier(X = X, y = y, copula = c("frank","clayton"), 
                        distribution = "kernel", graph_model = "chain")
y_pred <- copulaPredict(X = X, model = model)
classification_report(y_true = y, y_pred = y_pred$class)
