MDAModel: Mixture Discriminant Analysis Model

In MachineShop: Machine Learning Models and Tools

Mixture Discriminant Analysis Model

Description

Performs mixture discriminant analysis.

Usage

MDAModel(
  subclasses = 3,
  sub.df = numeric(),
  tot.df = numeric(),
  dimension = sum(subclasses) - 1,
  eps = .Machine$double.eps,
  iter = 5,
  method = .(mda::polyreg),
  trace = FALSE,
  ...
)

Arguments

subclasses	numeric value or vector of subclasses per class.
sub.df	effective degrees of freedom of the centroids per class if subclass centroid shrinkage is performed.
tot.df	specification of the total degrees of freedom as an alternative to sub.df.
dimension	dimension of the discriminant subspace to use for prediction.
eps	numeric threshold for automatically truncating the dimension.
iter	limit on the total number of iterations.
method	regression function used in optimal scaling. The default of linear regression is provided by polyreg from the mda package. For penalized mixture discriminant models, gen.ridge is appropriate. Other possibilities are mars for multivariate adaptive regression splines and bruto for adaptive backfitting of additive splines. Use the . operator to quote specified functions.
trace	logical indicating whether iteration information is printed.
...	additional arguments to mda.start and method.
