如何使用R gbm和distribution =“ adaboost”？

文档指出具有分布=“ adaboost”的R gbm可以用于0-1分类问题。考虑以下代码片段：

gbm_algorithm <- gbm(y ~ ., data = train_dataset, distribution = "adaboost", n.trees = 5000)
gbm_predicted <- predict(gbm_algorithm, test_dataset, n.trees = 5000)

可以在predict.gbm文档中找到

返回预测向量。默认情况下，预测的尺度为f（x）。

但是，对于分配=“ adaboost”的情况，具体比例尚不清楚。

任何人都可以帮助解释predict.gbm返回值并提供转换为0-1输出的想法吗？

adaboost方法给出了logit规模的预测。您可以将其转换为0-1输出：

gbm_predicted<-plogis(2*gbm_predicted)

注意Logis里面的2 *

您也可以直接从predict.gbm函数中获取概率；

predict(gbm_algorithm, test_dataset, n.trees = 5000, type = 'response')

这里描述了 adaboost链接功能。本示例提供了有关计算的详细说明：

                         x.2 = sample(0:1, n,    replace=TRUE));
prob.array <- c(0.9, 0.7, 0.2, 0.8);
df$y       <- rbinom(n, size = 1, prob=prob.array[1+sim.df$x.1+2*sim.df$x.2])
n.trees    <- 10;
shrinkage  <- 0.01;

sim.df$exp.scale  <- predict(gbmFit, sim.df, n.trees = n.trees);  #$
