Machine Learning in R: Training & Evaluation
Various machine learning libraries and packages can be used in R language for model training and evaluation. Here is a simple example of steps to train and evaluate machine learning models using R language.
- Prepare the data: Start by loading the dataset and splitting it into a training set and a testing set.
#加载数据
data <- read.csv("data.csv")
#划分数据集
set.seed(123)
train_index <- sample(1:nrow(data), 0.7 * nrow(data))
train_data <- data[train_index, ]
test_data <- data[-train_index, ]
- Train the model: Choose a machine learning algorithm, such as decision tree, random forest, logistic regression, that is suitable for the problem, and train the model using the training set.
# 使用决策树算法训练模型
library(rpart)
model <- rpart(target ~ ., data = train_data)
- Predictive data: Use a trained model to make predictions on the test set.
# 预测测试集
predictions <- predict(model, test_data)
- Assessing the model: evaluating the performance of the model using evaluation metrics such as accuracy, recall, F1 score, etc.
# 计算准确率
accuracy <- sum(predictions == test_data$target) / nrow(test_data)
This is a simple example, in actual applications, feature engineering, tuning, and other operations can be performed to improve model performance. In R language, there are many other machine learning packages and functions available for use, such as caret, e1071, glmnet, etc., and suitable algorithms and tools can be selected based on the specific problem for machine learning model training and evaluation.
