poisson_reg: Poisson regression models

In parsnip: A Common API to Modeling and Analysis Functions

Poisson regression models

Description

poisson_reg() defines a generalized linear model for count data that follow a Poisson distribution. This function can fit regression models.

\Sexpr[stage=render,results=rd]{parsnip:::make_engine_list("poisson_reg")}

More information on how parsnip is used for modeling is at https://www.tidymodels.org/.

Usage

poisson_reg(
  mode = "regression",
  penalty = NULL,
  mixture = NULL,
  engine = "glm"
)

Arguments

mode	A single character string for the type of model. The only possible value for this model is "regression".
penalty	A non-negative number representing the total amount of regularization (glmnet only).
mixture	A number between zero and one (inclusive) giving the proportion of L1 regularization (i.e. lasso) in the model. mixture = 1 specifies a pure lasso model, mixture = 0 specifies a ridge regression model, and ⁠0 < mixture < 1⁠ specifies an elastic net model, interpolating lasso and ridge. Available for glmnet and spark only.
engine	A single character string specifying what computational engine to use for fitting.

Details

This function only defines what type of model is being fit. Once an engine is specified, the method to fit the model is also defined. See set_engine() for more on setting the engine, including how to set engine arguments.

The model is not trained or fit until the fit() function is used with the data.

Each of the arguments in this function other than mode and engine are captured as quosures. To pass values programmatically, use the injection operator like so:

value <- 1
poisson_reg(argument = !!value)
