Fit a rpart
model
rpart(formula, data, weights, subset, na.action = na.rpart, method, model = FALSE, x = FALSE, y = TRUE, parms, control, cost, ncand, seed, redmem = FALSE, ...)
formula | a formula, with a response but no interaction
terms. If this a a data frame, that is taken as the model frame
(see |
---|---|
data | an optional data frame in which to interpret the variables named in the formula. |
weights | optional case weights. |
subset | optional expression saying that only a subset of the rows of the data should be used in the fit. |
na.action | the default action deletes all observations for which
|
method | one of Alternatively, |
model | if logical: keep a copy of the model frame in the result?
If the input value for |
x | keep a copy of the |
y | keep a copy of the dependent variable in the result. If
missing and |
parms | optional parameters for the splitting function. |
control | a list of options that control details of the
|
cost | a vector of non-negative costs, one for each variable in the model. Defaults to one for all variables. These are scalings to be applied when considering splits, so the improvement on splitting on a variable is divided by its cost in deciding which split to choose. |
ncand | integer specifying the number of randomly chosen variable candidates to consider at each node to find the optimal split. |
seed | seed for the random number generator which chooses the
|
redmem | boolean whether to reduce the memory footprint of the
fitted |
... | arguments to |
This differs from the tree
function in S mainly in its handling
of surrogate variables. In most details it follows Breiman
et. al (1984) quite closely. R package tree provides a
re-implementation of tree
