In spm: Spatial Predictive Modeling

Cross validation, n-fold for the hybrid method of random forest in ranger and ordinary kriging (RGFOK)

Description

This function is a cross validation function for the hybrid method of random forest in ranger and ordinary kriging (RFOK).

Usage

rgokcv(
  longlat,
  trainx,
  trainy,
  cv.fold = 10,
  mtry = function(p) max(1, floor(sqrt(p))),
  num.trees = 500,
  min.node.size = NULL,
  num.threads = NULL,
  verbose = FALSE,
  nmax = 12,
  vgm.args = ("Sph"),
  block = 0,
  predacc = "VEcv",
  ...
)

Arguments

longlat	a dataframe contains longitude and latitude of point samples (i.e., trainx and trainy).
trainx	a dataframe or matrix contains columns of predictive variables.
trainy	a vector of response, must have length equal to the number of rows in trainx.
cv.fold	integer; number of folds in the cross-validation. if > 1, then apply n-fold cross validation; the default is 10, i.e., 10-fold cross validation that is recommended.
mtry	a function of number of remaining predictor variables to use as the mtry parameter in the randomForest call.
num.trees	number of trees. By default, 500 is used.
min.node.size	Default 1 for classification, 5 for regression.
num.threads	number of threads. Default is number of CPUs available.
verbose	Show computation status and estimated runtime.Default is FALSE.
nmax	for local predicting: the number of nearest observations that should be used for a prediction or simulation, where nearest is defined in terms of the space of the spatial locations. By default, 12.
vgm.args	arguments for vgm, e.g. variogram model of response variable and anisotropy parameters. see notes vgm in gstat for details. By default, "Sph" is used.
block	block size. see krige in gstat for details.
predacc	can be either "VEcv" for vecv or "ALL" for all measures in function pred.acc.
...	other arguments passed on to randomForest or gstat.

Value

A list with the following components: for numerical data: me, rme, mae, rmae, mse, rmse, rrmse, vecv and e1; or vecv.

Note

This function is largely based on rfokcv. When 'A zero or negative range was fitted to variogram' occurs, to allow gstat running, the range was set to be positive by using min(vgm1$dist). In this case, caution should be taken in applying this method, although sometimes it can still outperform IDW and OK.
