treeSummary: Returns the tree frame.
In splinetree: Longitudinal Regression Trees and Forests

Description Usage Arguments Value Examples

Provides a similar output to model$frame, but with the redundant information of yval and yval2 removed. Also omits the deviance, the complexity, and the weight. Useful for viewing node numbers and for extracting coefficients for a given node.

model

A model built with splineTree()

A dataframe. The number of rows is the same as the number of nodes in the tree. The row names display the node labels of each node. The "var" attribute either displays the split variable selected at each node, or <leaf> if this node is a terminal node. The "n" attribute displays the number of individuals in the node. The "dev" attribute reports the projected sum of squares at this node; terminal nodes have the smallest values for "dev" because this is what the tree building process is supposed to minimize. The "coeffs" attribute displays the coefficients predicted for each node.

nlsySubset <- nlsySample[nlsySample$ID %in% sample(unique(nlsySample$ID), 400),]
split_formula <- ~HISP + WHITE + BLACK + SEX + Num_sibs + HGC_FATHER + HGC_MOTHER
tree <- splineTree(split_formula, BMI~AGE, idvar = "ID",
   data = nlsySubset, degree = 1, df = 3,
   intercept = TRUE, cp = 0.005)
