Obtain a identifier for the resamples

Description

This function returns a hash (or NA) for an attribute that is created when the rset was initially constructed. This can be used to compare with other resampling objects to see if they are the same.

Usage

.get_fingerprint(x, ...)

## Default S3 method:
.get_fingerprint(x, ...)

## S3 method for class 'rset'
.get_fingerprint(x, ...)

Arguments

x

An rset or tune_results object.

...

Not currently used.

Value

A character value or NA_character_ if the object was created prior to rsample version 0.1.0.

Examples

set.seed(1)
.get_fingerprint(vfold_cv(mtcars))

set.seed(1)
.get_fingerprint(vfold_cv(mtcars))

set.seed(2)
.get_fingerprint(vfold_cv(mtcars))

set.seed(1)
.get_fingerprint(vfold_cv(mtcars, repeats = 2))

Augment a data set with resampling identifiers

Description

For a data set, add_resample_id() will add at least one new column that identifies which resample that the data came from. In most cases, a single column is added but for some resampling methods, two or more are added.

Usage

add_resample_id(.data, split, dots = FALSE)

Arguments

.data

A data frame.

split

A single rset object.

dots

A single logical: should the id columns be prefixed with a "." to avoid name conflicts with .data?

Value

An updated data frame.

labels.rsplit

Examples

library(dplyr)

set.seed(363)
car_folds <- vfold_cv(mtcars, repeats = 3)

analysis(car_folds$splits[[1]]) %>%
  add_resample_id(car_folds$splits[[1]]) %>%
  head()

car_bt <- bootstraps(mtcars)

analysis(car_bt$splits[[1]]) %>%
  add_resample_id(car_bt$splits[[1]]) %>%
  head()

Sampling for the Apparent Error Rate

Description

When building a model on a data set and re-predicting the same data, the performance estimate from those predictions is often called the "apparent" performance of the model. This estimate can be wildly optimistic. "Apparent sampling" here means that the analysis and assessment samples are the same. These resamples are sometimes used in the analysis of bootstrap samples and should otherwise be avoided like old sushi.

Usage

apparent(data, ...)

Arguments

data

A data frame.

...

These dots are for future extensions and must be empty.

Value

A tibble with a single row and classes apparent, rset, tbl_df, tbl, and data.frame. The results include a column for the data split objects and one column called id that has a character string with the resample identifier.

Examples

apparent(mtcars)

Convert an rsplit object to a data frame

Description

The analysis or assessment code can be returned as a data frame (as dictated by the data argument) using as.data.frame.rsplit(). analysis() and assessment() are shortcuts.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'rsplit'
as.data.frame(x, row.names = NULL, optional = FALSE, data = "analysis", ...)

analysis(x, ...)

## Default S3 method:
analysis(x, ...)

## S3 method for class 'rsplit'
analysis(x, ...)

assessment(x, ...)

## Default S3 method:
assessment(x, ...)

## S3 method for class 'rsplit'
assessment(x, ...)

Arguments

x

An rsplit object.

row.names

NULL or a character vector giving the row names for the data frame. Missing values are not allowed.

optional

A logical: should the column names of the data be checked for legality?

data

Either "analysis" or "assessment" to specify which data are returned.

...

Not currently used.

Examples

library(dplyr)
set.seed(104)
folds <- vfold_cv(mtcars)

model_data_1 <- folds$splits[[1]] %>% analysis()
holdout_data_1 <- folds$splits[[1]] %>% assessment()

Bootstrap Sampling

Description

A bootstrap sample is a sample that is the same size as the original data set that is made using replacement. This results in analysis samples that have multiple replicates of some of the original rows of the data. The assessment set is defined as the rows of the original data that were not included in the bootstrap sample. This is often referred to as the "out-of-bag" (OOB) sample.

Usage

bootstraps(
  data,
  times = 25,
  strata = NULL,
  breaks = 4,
  pool = 0.1,
  apparent = FALSE,
  ...
)

Arguments

data

A data frame.

times

The number of bootstrap samples.

strata

A variable in data (single character or name) used to conduct stratified sampling. When not NULL, each resample is created within the stratification variable. Numeric strata are binned into quartiles.

breaks

A single number giving the number of bins desired to stratify a numeric stratification variable.

pool

A proportion of data used to determine if a particular group is too small and should be pooled into another group. We do not recommend decreasing this argument below its default of 0.1 because of the dangers of stratifying groups that are too small.

apparent

A logical. Should an extra resample be added where the analysis and holdout subset are the entire data set. This is required for some estimators used by the summary() function that require the apparent error rate.

...

These dots are for future extensions and must be empty.

Details

The argument apparent enables the option of an additional "resample" where the analysis and assessment data sets are the same as the original data set. This can be required for some types of analysis of the bootstrap results.

With a strata argument, the random sampling is conducted within the stratification variable. This can help ensure that the resamples have equivalent proportions as the original data set. For a categorical variable, sampling is conducted separately within each class. For a numeric stratification variable, strata is binned into quartiles, which are then used to stratify. Strata below 10% of the total are pooled together; see make_strata() for more details.

Value

A tibble with classes bootstraps, rset, tbl_df, tbl, and data.frame. The results include a column for the data split objects and a column called id that has a character string with the resample identifier.

Examples

bootstraps(mtcars, times = 2)
bootstraps(mtcars, times = 2, apparent = TRUE)

library(purrr)
library(modeldata)
data(wa_churn)

set.seed(13)
resample1 <- bootstraps(wa_churn, times = 3)
map_dbl(
  resample1$splits,
  function(x) {
    dat <- as.data.frame(x)$churn
    mean(dat == "Yes")
  }
)

set.seed(13)
resample2 <- bootstraps(wa_churn, strata = churn, times = 3)
map_dbl(
  resample2$splits,
  function(x) {
    dat <- as.data.frame(x)$churn
    mean(dat == "Yes")
  }
)

set.seed(13)
resample3 <- bootstraps(wa_churn, strata = tenure, breaks = 6, times = 3)
map_dbl(
  resample3$splits,
  function(x) {
    dat <- as.data.frame(x)$churn
    mean(dat == "Yes")
  }
)

Cluster Cross-Validation

Description

Cluster cross-validation splits the data into V groups of disjointed sets using k-means clustering of some variables. A resample of the analysis data consists of V-1 of the folds/clusters while the assessment set contains the final fold/cluster. In basic cross-validation (i.e. no repeats), the number of resamples is equal to V.

Usage

clustering_cv(
  data,
  vars,
  v = 10,
  repeats = 1,
  distance_function = "dist",
  cluster_function = c("kmeans", "hclust"),
  ...
)

Arguments

data

A data frame.

vars

A vector of bare variable names to use to cluster the data.

v

The number of partitions of the data set.

repeats

The number of times to repeat the clustered partitioning.

distance_function

Which function should be used for distance calculations? Defaults to stats::dist(). You can also provide your own function; see Details.

cluster_function

Which function should be used for clustering? Options are either "kmeans" (to use stats::kmeans()) or "hclust" (to use stats::hclust()). You can also provide your own function; see Details.

...

Extra arguments passed on to cluster_function.

Details

The variables in the vars argument are used for k-means clustering of the data into disjointed sets or for hierarchical clustering of the data. These clusters are used as the folds for cross-validation. Depending on how the data are distributed, there may not be an equal number of points in each fold.

You can optionally provide a custom function to distance_function. The function should take a data frame (as created via data[vars]) and return a stats::dist() object with distances between data points.

You can optionally provide a custom function to cluster_function. The function must take three arguments:

  • dists, a stats::dist() object with distances between data points

  • v, a length-1 numeric for the number of folds to create

  • ..., to pass any additional named arguments to your function

The function should return a vector of cluster assignments of length nrow(data), with each element of the vector corresponding to the matching row of the data frame.

Value

A tibble with classes rset, tbl_df, tbl, and data.frame. The results include a column for the data split objects and an identification variable id.

Examples

data(ames, package = "modeldata")
clustering_cv(ames, vars = c(Sale_Price, First_Flr_SF, Second_Flr_SF), v = 2)

Determine the Assessment Samples

Description

This method and function help find which data belong in the analysis and assessment sets.

Usage

complement(x, ...)

## S3 method for class 'rsplit'
complement(x, ...)

## S3 method for class 'rof_split'
complement(x, ...)

## S3 method for class 'sliding_window_split'
complement(x, ...)

## S3 method for class 'sliding_index_split'
complement(x, ...)

## S3 method for class 'sliding_period_split'
complement(x, ...)

## S3 method for class 'apparent_split'
complement(x, ...)

Arguments

x

An rsplit object.

...

Not currently used.

Details

Given an rsplit object, complement() will determine which of the data rows are contained in the assessment set. To save space, many of the rsplit objects will not contain indices for the assessment split.

Value

A integer vector.

populate()

Examples

set.seed(28432)
fold_rs <- vfold_cv(mtcars)
head(fold_rs$splits[[1]]$in_id)
fold_rs$splits[[1]]$out_id
complement(fold_rs$splits[[1]])

Extract Predictor Names from Formula or Terms

Description

While all.vars() returns all variables used in a formula, this function only returns the variables explicitly used on the right-hand side (i.e., it will not resolve dots unless the object is terms with a data set specified).

Usage

form_pred(object, ...)

Arguments

object

A model formula or stats::terms() object.

...

Arguments to pass to all.vars()

Value

A character vector of names

Examples

form_pred(y ~ x + z)
form_pred(terms(y ~ x + z))

form_pred(y ~ x + log(z))
form_pred(log(y) ~ x + z)

form_pred(y1 + y2 ~ x + z)
form_pred(log(y1) + y2 ~ x + z)

# will fail:
# form_pred(y ~ .)

form_pred(terms(mpg ~ (.)^2, data = mtcars))
form_pred(terms(~ (.)^2, data = mtcars))

Retrieve individual rsplits objects from an rset

Description

Retrieve individual rsplits objects from an rset

Usage

get_rsplit(x, index, ...)

## S3 method for class 'rset'
get_rsplit(x, index, ...)

## Default S3 method:
get_rsplit(x, index, ...)

Arguments

x

The rset object to retrieve an rsplit from.

index

An integer indicating which rsplit to retrieve: 1 for the rsplit in the first row of the rset, 2 for the second, and so on.

...

Not currently used.

Value

The rsplit object in row index of rset

Examples

set.seed(123)
(starting_splits <- group_vfold_cv(mtcars, cyl, v = 3))
get_rsplit(starting_splits, 1)

Group Bootstraps

Description

Group bootstrapping creates splits of the data based on some grouping variable (which may have more than a single row associated with it). A common use of this kind of resampling is when you have repeated measures of the same subject. A bootstrap sample is a sample that is the same size as the original data set that is made using replacement. This results in analysis samples that have multiple replicates of some of the original rows of the data. The assessment set is defined as the rows of the original data that were not included in the bootstrap sample. This is often referred to as the "out-of-bag" (OOB) sample.

Usage

group_bootstraps(
  data,
  group,
  times = 25,
  apparent = FALSE,
  ...,
  strata = NULL,
  pool = 0.1
)

Arguments

data

A data frame.

group

A variable in data (single character or name) used for grouping observations with the same value to either the analysis or assessment set within a fold.

times

The number of bootstrap samples.

apparent

A logical. Should an extra resample be added where the analysis and holdout subset are the entire data set. This is required for some estimators used by the summary() function that require the apparent error rate.

...

These dots are for future extensions and must be empty.

strata

A variable in data (single character or name) used to conduct stratified sampling. When not NULL, each resample is created within the stratification variable. Numeric strata are binned into quartiles.

pool

A proportion of data used to determine if a particular group is too small and should be pooled into another group. We do not recommend decreasing this argument below its default of 0.1 because of the dangers of stratifying groups that are too small.

Details

The argument apparent enables the option of an additional "resample" where the analysis and assessment data sets are the same as the original data set. This can be required for some types of analysis of the bootstrap results.

Value

An tibble with classes group_bootstraps bootstraps, rset, tbl_df, tbl, and data.frame. The results include a column for the data split objects and a column called id that has a character string with the resample identifier.

Examples

data(ames, package = "modeldata")

set.seed(13)
group_bootstraps(ames, Neighborhood, times = 3)
group_bootstraps(ames, Neighborhood, times = 3, apparent = TRUE)

Group Monte Carlo Cross-Validation

Description

Group Monte Carlo cross-validation creates splits of the data based on some grouping variable (which may have more than a single row associated with it). One resample of Monte Carlo cross-validation takes a random sample (without replacement) of groups in the original data set to be used for analysis. All other data points are added to the assessment set. A common use of this kind of resampling is when you have repeated measures of the same subject.

Usage

group_mc_cv(
  data,
  group,
  prop = 3/4,
  times = 25,
  ...,
  strata = NULL,
  pool = 0.1
)

Arguments

data

A data frame.

group

A variable in data (single character or name) used for grouping observations with the same value to either the analysis or assessment set within a fold.

prop

The proportion of data to be retained for modeling/analysis.

times

The number of times to repeat the sampling.

...

These dots are for future extensions and must be empty.

strata

A variable in data (single character or name) used to conduct stratified sampling. When not NULL, each resample is created within the stratification variable. Numeric strata are binned into quartiles.

pool

A proportion of data used to determine if a particular group is too small and should be pooled into another group. We do not recommend decreasing this argument below its default of 0.1 because of the dangers of stratifying groups that are too small.

Value

A tibble with classes group_mc_cv, rset, tbl_df, tbl, and data.frame. The results include a column for the data split objects and an identification variable.

Examples

data(ames, package = "modeldata")

set.seed(123)
group_mc_cv(ames, group = Neighborhood, times = 5)

Group V-Fold Cross-Validation

Description

Group V-fold cross-validation creates splits of the data based on some grouping variable (which may have more than a single row associated with it). The function can create as many splits as there are unique values of the grouping variable or it can create a smaller set of splits where more than one group is left out at a time. A common use of this kind of resampling is when you have repeated measures of the same subject.

Usage

group_vfold_cv(
  data,
  group = NULL,
  v = NULL,
  repeats = 1,
  balance = c("groups", "observations"),
  ...,
  strata = NULL,
  pool = 0.1
)

Arguments

data

A data frame.

group

A variable in data (single character or name) used for grouping observations with the same value to either the analysis or assessment set within a fold.

v

The number of partitions of the data set. If left as NULL (the default), v will be set to the number of unique values in the grouping variable, creating "leave-one-group-out" splits.

repeats

The number of times to repeat the V-fold partitioning.

balance

If v is less than the number of unique groups, how should groups be combined into folds? Should be one of "groups", which will assign roughly the same number of groups to each fold, or "observations", which will assign roughly the same number of observations to each fold.

...

These dots are for future extensions and must be empty.

strata

A variable in data (single character or name) used to conduct stratified sampling. When not NULL, each resample is created within the stratification variable. Numeric strata are binned into quartiles.

pool

A proportion of data used to determine if a particular group is too small and should be pooled into another group. We do not recommend decreasing this argument below its default of 0.1 because of the dangers of stratifying groups that are too small.

Value

A tibble with classes group_vfold_cv, rset, tbl_df, tbl, and data.frame. The results include a column for the data split objects and an identification variable.

Examples

data(ames, package = "modeldata")

set.seed(123)
group_vfold_cv(ames, group = Neighborhood, v = 5)
group_vfold_cv(
  ames,
  group = Neighborhood,
  v = 5,
  balance = "observations"
)
group_vfold_cv(ames, group = Neighborhood, v = 5, repeats = 2)

# Leave-one-group-out CV
group_vfold_cv(ames, group = Neighborhood)

library(dplyr)
data(Sacramento, package = "modeldata")

city_strata <- Sacramento %>%
  group_by(city) %>%
  summarize(strata = mean(price)) %>%
  summarize(city = city,
            strata = cut(strata, quantile(strata), include.lowest = TRUE))

sacramento_data <- Sacramento %>%
  full_join(city_strata, by = "city")

group_vfold_cv(sacramento_data, city, strata = strata)

Simple Training/Test Set Splitting

Description

initial_split() creates a single binary split of the data into a training set and testing set. initial_time_split() does the same, but takes the first prop samples for training, instead of a random selection. group_initial_split() creates splits of the data based on some grouping variable, so that all data in a "group" is assigned to the same split.

Usage

initial_split(data, prop = 3/4, strata = NULL, breaks = 4, pool = 0.1, ...)

initial_time_split(data, prop = 3/4, lag = 0, ...)

training(x, ...)

## Default S3 method:
training(x, ...)

## S3 method for class 'rsplit'
training(x, ...)

testing(x, ...)

## Default S3 method:
testing(x, ...)

## S3 method for class 'rsplit'
testing(x, ...)

group_initial_split(data, group, prop = 3/4, ..., strata = NULL, pool = 0.1)

Arguments

data

A data frame.

prop

The proportion of data to be retained for modeling/analysis.

strata

A variable in data (single character or name) used to conduct stratified sampling. When not NULL, each resample is created within the stratification variable. Numeric strata are binned into quartiles.

breaks

A single number giving the number of bins desired to stratify a numeric stratification variable.

pool

A proportion of data used to determine if a particular group is too small and should be pooled into another group. We do not recommend decreasing this argument below its default of 0.1 because of the dangers of stratifying groups that are too small.

...

These dots are for future extensions and must be empty.

lag

A value to include a lag between the assessment and analysis set. This is useful if lagged predictors will be used during training and testing.

x

An rsplit object produced by initial_split() or initial_time_split().

group

A variable in data (single character or name) used for grouping observations with the same value to either the analysis or assessment set within a fold.

Details

training() and testing() are used to extract the resulting data.

With a strata argument, the random sampling is conducted within the stratification variable. This can help ensure that the resamples have equivalent proportions as the original data set. For a categorical variable, sampling is conducted separately within each class. For a numeric stratification variable, strata is binned into quartiles, which are then used to stratify. Strata below 10% of the total are pooled together; see make_strata() for more details.

Value

An rsplit object that can be used with the training() and testing() functions to extract the data in each split.

Examples

set.seed(1353)
car_split <- initial_split(mtcars)
train_data <- training(car_split)
test_data <- testing(car_split)

data(drinks, package = "modeldata")
drinks_split <- initial_time_split(drinks)
train_data <- training(drinks_split)
test_data <- testing(drinks_split)
c(max(train_data$date), min(test_data$date)) # no lag

# With 12 period lag
drinks_lag_split <- initial_time_split(drinks, lag = 12)
train_data <- training(drinks_lag_split)
test_data <- testing(drinks_lag_split)
c(max(train_data$date), min(test_data$date)) # 12 period lag

set.seed(1353)
car_split <- group_initial_split(mtcars, cyl)
train_data <- training(car_split)
test_data <- testing(car_split)

Create an Initial Train/Validation/Test Split

Description

initial_validation_split() creates a random three-way split of the data into a training set, a validation set, and a testing set. initial_validation_time_split() does the same, but instead of a random selection the training, validation, and testing set are in order of the full data set, with the first observations being put into the training set. group_initial_validation_split() creates similar random splits of the data based on some grouping variable, so that all data in a "group" are assigned to the same partition.

Usage

initial_validation_split(
  data,
  prop = c(0.6, 0.2),
  strata = NULL,
  breaks = 4,
  pool = 0.1,
  ...
)

initial_validation_time_split(data, prop = c(0.6, 0.2), ...)

group_initial_validation_split(
  data,
  group,
  prop = c(0.6, 0.2),
  ...,
  strata = NULL,
  pool = 0.1
)

## S3 method for class 'initial_validation_split'
training(x, ...)

## S3 method for class 'initial_validation_split'
testing(x, ...)

validation(x, ...)

## Default S3 method:
validation(x, ...)

## S3 method for class 'initial_validation_split'
validation(x, ...)

Arguments

data

A data frame.

prop

A length-2 vector of proportions of data to be retained for training and validation data, respectively.

strata

A variable in data (single character or name) used to conduct stratified sampling. When not NULL, each resample is created within the stratification variable. Numeric strata are binned into quartiles.

breaks

A single number giving the number of bins desired to stratify a numeric stratification variable.

pool

A proportion of data used to determine if a particular group is too small and should be pooled into another group. We do not recommend decreasing this argument below its default of 0.1 because of the dangers of stratifying groups that are too small.

...

These dots are for future extensions and must be empty.

group

A variable in data (single character or name) used for grouping observations with the same value to either the analysis or assessment set within a fold.

x

An object of class initial_validation_split.

Details

training(), validation(), and testing() can be used to extract the resulting data sets. Use validation_set() to create an rset object for use with functions from the tune package such as tune::tune_grid().

With a strata argument, the random sampling is conducted within the stratification variable. This can help ensure that the resamples have equivalent proportions as the original data set. For a categorical variable, sampling is conducted separately within each class. For a numeric stratification variable, strata is binned into quartiles, which are then used to stratify. Strata below 10% of the total are pooled together; see make_strata() for more details.

Value

An initial_validation_split object that can be used with the training(), validation(), and testing() functions to extract the data in each split.

Examples

set.seed(1353)
car_split <- initial_validation_split(mtcars)
train_data <- training(car_split)
validation_data <- validation(car_split)
test_data <- testing(car_split)

data(drinks, package = "modeldata")
drinks_split <- initial_validation_time_split(drinks)
train_data <- training(drinks_split)

train_data <- training(ames_split)
validation_data <- validation(ames_split)
test_data <- testing(ames_split)

Bootstrap confidence intervals

Description

Calculate bootstrap confidence intervals using various methods.

Usage

int_pctl(.data, ...)

## S3 method for class 'bootstraps'
int_pctl(.data, statistics, alpha = 0.05, ...)

int_t(.data, ...)

## S3 method for class 'bootstraps'
int_t(.data, statistics, alpha = 0.05, ...)

int_bca(.data, ...)

## S3 method for class 'bootstraps'
int_bca(.data, statistics, alpha = 0.05, .fn, ...)

Arguments

.data

A data frame containing the bootstrap resamples created using bootstraps(). For t- and BCa-intervals, the apparent argument should be set to TRUE. Even if the apparent argument is set to TRUE for the percentile method, the apparent data is never used in calculating the percentile confidence interval.

...

Arguments to pass to .fn (int_bca() only).

statistics

An unquoted column name or dplyr selector that identifies a single column in the data set containing the individual bootstrap estimates. This must be a list column of tidy tibbles (with columns term and estimate). Optionally, users can include columns whose names begin with a period and the intervals will be created for each combination of these variables and the term column. For t-intervals, a standard tidy column (usually called std.error) is required. See the examples below.

alpha

Level of significance.

.fn

A function to calculate statistic of interest. The function should take an rsplit as the first argument and the ... are required.

Details

Percentile intervals are the standard method of obtaining confidence intervals but require thousands of resamples to be accurate. T-intervals may need fewer resamples but require a corresponding variance estimate. Bias-corrected and accelerated intervals require the original function that was used to create the statistics of interest and are computationally taxing.

Value

Each function returns a tibble with columns .lower, .estimate, .upper, .alpha, .method, and term. .method is the type of interval (eg. "percentile", "student-t", or "BCa"). term is the name of the estimate. Note the .estimate returned from int_pctl() is the mean of the estimates from the bootstrap resamples and not the estimate from the apparent model.

Constructors for split objects

Description

Constructors for split objects

Usage

make_splits(x, ...)

## Default S3 method:
make_splits(x, ...)

## S3 method for class 'list'
make_splits(x, data, class = NULL, ...)

## S3 method for class 'data.frame'

A list of integers with names "analysis" and "assessment", or a data frame of analysis or training data.

...

Not currently used.

data

A data frame.

class

An optional class to give the object.

assessment

A data frame of assessment or testing data, which can be empty.

Examples

df <- data.frame(
  year = 1900:1999,
  value = 10 + 8*1900:1999 + runif(100L, 0, 100)
)
split_from_indices <- make_splits(

)
identical(split_from_indices, split_from_data_frame)

Create or Modify Stratification Variables

Description

This function can create strata from numeric data and make non-numeric data more conducive for stratification.

Usage

make_strata(x, breaks = 4, nunique = 5, pool = 0.1, depth = 20)

Arguments

x

An input vector.

breaks

A single number giving the number of bins desired to stratify a numeric stratification variable.

nunique

An integer for the number of unique value threshold in the algorithm.

pool

A proportion of data used to determine if a particular group is too small and should be pooled into another group. We do not recommend decreasing this argument below its default of 0.1 because of the dangers of stratifying groups that are too small.

depth

An integer that is used to determine the best number of percentiles that should be used. The number of bins are based on min(5, floor(n / depth)) where n = length(x). If x is numeric, there must be at least 40 rows in the data set (when depth = 20) to conduct stratified sampling.

Details

For numeric data, if the number of unique levels is less than nunique, the data are treated as categorical data.

For categorical inputs, the function will find levels of x than occur in the data with percentage less than pool. The values from these groups will be randomly assigned to the remaining strata (as will data points that have missing values in x).

For numeric data with more unique values than nunique, the data will be converted to being categorical based on percentiles of the data. The percentile groups will have no more than 20 percent of the data in each group. Again, missing values in x are randomly assigned to groups.

Value

A factor vector.

Examples

set.seed(61)
x1 <- rpois(100, lambda = 5)
table(x1)
table(make_strata(x1))

set.seed(554)
x2 <- rpois(100, lambda = 1)
table(x2)
table(make_strata(x2))

# small groups are randomly assigned
x3 <- factor(x2)
table(x3)
table(make_strata(x3))

x4 <- rep(LETTERS[1:7], c(37, 26, 3, 7, 11, 10, 2))
table(x4)
table(make_strata(x4))
table(make_strata(x4, pool = 0.1))
table(make_strata(x4, pool = 0.0))

# not enough data to stratify
x5 <- rnorm(20)
table(make_strata(x5))

set.seed(483)
x6 <- rnorm(200)
quantile(x6, probs = (0:10) / 10)
table(make_strata(x6, breaks = 10))

Manual resampling

Description

manual_rset() is used for constructing the most minimal rset possible. It can be useful when you have custom rsplit objects built from make_splits(), or when you want to create a new rset from splits contained within an existing rset.

Usage

manual_rset(splits, ids)

Arguments

splits

A list of "rsplit" objects. It is easiest to create these using make_splits().

ids

A character vector of ids. The length of ids must be the same as the length of splits.

Examples

df <- data.frame(x = c(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6))

# Create an rset from custom indices
indices <- list(
  list(analysis = c(1L, 2L), assessment = 3L),
  list(analysis = c(4L, 5L), assessment = 6L)
)

splits <- lapply(indices, make_splits, data = df)

manual_rset(splits, c("Split 1", "Split 2"))

# You can also use this to create an rset from a subset of an
# existing rset
resamples <- vfold_cv(mtcars)
best_split <- resamples[5, ]
manual_rset(best_split$splits, best_split$id)

Monte Carlo Cross-Validation

Description

One resample of Monte Carlo cross-validation takes a random sample (without replacement) of the original data set to be used for analysis. All other data points are added to the assessment set.

Usage

mc_cv(data, prop = 3/4, times = 25, strata = NULL, breaks = 4, pool = 0.1, ...)

Arguments

data

A data frame.

prop

The proportion of data to be retained for modeling/analysis.

times

The number of times to repeat the sampling.

strata

A variable in data (single character or name) used to conduct stratified sampling. When not NULL, each resample is created within the stratification variable. Numeric strata are binned into quartiles.

breaks

A single number giving the number of bins desired to stratify a numeric stratification variable.

pool

A proportion of data used to determine if a particular group is too small and should be pooled into another group. We do not recommend decreasing this argument below its default of 0.1 because of the dangers of stratifying groups that are too small.

...

These dots are for future extensions and must be empty.

Details

With a strata argument, the random sampling is conducted within the stratification variable. This can help ensure that the resamples have equivalent proportions as the original data set. For a categorical variable, sampling is conducted separately within each class. For a numeric stratification variable, strata is binned into quartiles, which are then used to stratify. Strata below 10% of the total are pooled together; see make_strata() for more details.

Value

An tibble with classes mc_cv, rset, tbl_df, tbl, and data.frame. The results include a column for the data split objects and a column called id that has a character string with the resample identifier.

Examples

mc_cv(mtcars, times = 2)
mc_cv(mtcars, prop = .5, times = 2)

library(purrr)
data(wa_churn, package = "modeldata")

set.seed(13)
resample1 <- mc_cv(wa_churn, times = 3, prop = .5)
map_dbl(
  resample1$splits,
  function(x) {
    dat <- as.data.frame(x)$churn
    mean(dat == "Yes")
  }
)

set.seed(13)
resample2 <- mc_cv(wa_churn, strata = churn, times = 3, prop = .5)
map_dbl(
  resample2$splits,
  function(x) {
    dat <- as.data.frame(x)$churn
    mean(dat == "Yes")
  }
)

set.seed(13)
resample3 <- mc_cv(wa_churn, strata = tenure, breaks = 6, times = 3, prop = .5)
map_dbl(
  resample3$splits,
  function(x) {
    dat <- as.data.frame(x)$churn
    mean(dat == "Yes")
  }
)

Nested or Double Resampling

Description

nested_cv() can be used to take the results of one resampling procedure and conduct further resamples within each split. Any type of resampling used in rsample can be used.

Usage

nested_cv(data, outside, inside)

Arguments

data

A data frame.

outside

The initial resampling specification. This can be an already created object or an expression of a new object (see the examples below). If the latter is used, the data argument does not need to be specified and, if it is given, will be ignored.

inside

An expression for the type of resampling to be conducted within the initial procedure.

Details

It is a bad idea to use bootstrapping as the outer resampling procedure (see the example below)

Value

An tibble with nested_cv class and any other classes that outer resampling process normally contains. The results include a column for the outer data split objects, one or more id columns, and a column of nested tibbles called inner_resamples with the additional resamples.

Examples

## Using expressions for the resampling procedures:
nested_cv(mtcars, outside = vfold_cv(v = 3), inside = bootstraps(times = 5))

## Using an existing object:
folds <- vfold_cv(mtcars)
nested_cv(mtcars, folds, inside = bootstraps(times = 5))

## The dangers of outer bootstraps:
set.seed(2222)
bad_idea <- nested_cv(mtcars,
  outside = bootstraps(times = 5),
  inside = vfold_cv(v = 3)
)

first_outer_split <- get_rsplit(bad_idea, 1)
outer_analysis <- analysis(first_outer_split)
sum(grepl("Camaro Z28", rownames(outer_analysis)))

## For the 3-fold CV used inside of each bootstrap, how are the replicated
## `Camaro Z28` data partitioned?
first_inner_split <- get_rsplit(bad_idea$inner_resamples[[1]], 1)
inner_analysis <- analysis(first_inner_split)
inner_assess <- assessment(first_inner_split)

sum(grepl("Camaro Z28", rownames(inner_analysis)))
sum(grepl("Camaro Z28", rownames(inner_assess)))

Permutation sampling

Description

A permutation sample is the same size as the original data set and is made by permuting/shuffling one or more columns. This results in analysis samples where some columns are in their original order and some columns are permuted to a random order. Unlike other sampling functions in rsample, there is no assessment set and calling assessment() on a permutation split will throw an error.

Usage

permutations(data, permute = NULL, times = 25, apparent = FALSE, ...)

Arguments

data

A data frame.

permute

One or more columns to shuffle. This argument supports tidyselect selectors. Multiple expressions can be combined with c(). Variable names can be used as if they were positions in the data frame, so expressions like x:y can be used to select a range of variables. See language for more details.

times

The number of permutation samples.

apparent

A logical. Should an extra resample be added where the analysis is the standard data set.

...

These dots are for future extensions and must be empty.

Details

The argument apparent enables the option of an additional "resample" where the analysis data set is the same as the original data set. Permutation-based resampling can be especially helpful for computing a statistic under the null hypothesis (e.g. t-statistic). This forms the basis of a permutation test, which computes a test statistic under all possible permutations of the data.

Value

A tibble with classes permutations, rset, tbl_df, tbl, and data.frame. The results include a column for the data split objects and a column called id that has a character string with the resample identifier.

Examples

permutations(mtcars, mpg, times = 2)
permutations(mtcars, mpg, times = 2, apparent = TRUE)

library(purrr)
resample1 <- permutations(mtcars, starts_with("c"), times = 1)
resample1$splits[[1]] %>% analysis()

resample2 <- permutations(mtcars, hp, times = 10, apparent = TRUE)
map_dbl(resample2$splits, function(x) {
  t.test(hp ~ vs, data = analysis(x))$statistic
})

Add Assessment Indices

Description

Many rsplit and rset objects do not contain indicators for the assessment samples. populate() can be used to fill the slot for the appropriate indices.

Usage

populate(x, ...)

Arguments

x

A rsplit and rset object.

...

Not currently used.

Value

An object of the same kind with the integer indices.

Examples

set.seed(28432)
fold_rs <- vfold_cv(mtcars)

fold_rs$splits[[1]]$out_id
complement(fold_rs$splits[[1]])

populate(fold_rs$splits[[1]])$out_id

fold_rs_all <- populate(fold_rs)
fold_rs_all$splits[[1]]$out_id

A convenience function for confidence intervals with linear-ish parametric models

Description

A convenience function for confidence intervals with linear-ish parametric models

Usage

reg_intervals(
  formula,
  data,
  model_fn = "lm",
  type = "student-t",
  times = NULL,
  alpha = 0.05,
  filter = term != "(Intercept)",
  keep_reps = FALSE,
  ...
)

Arguments

formula

An R model formula with one outcome and at least one predictor.

data

A data frame.

model_fn

The model to fit. Allowable values are "lm", "glm", "survreg", and "coxph". The latter two require that the survival package be installed.

type

The type of bootstrap confidence interval. Values of "student-t" and "percentile" are allowed.

times

A single integer for the number of bootstrap samples. If left NULL, 1,001 are used for t-intervals and 2,001 for percentile intervals.

alpha

Level of significance.

filter

A logical expression used to remove rows from the final result, or NULL to keep all rows.

keep_reps

Should the individual parameter estimates for each bootstrap sample be retained?

...

Options to pass to the model function (such as family for stats::glm()).

Value

A tibble with columns "term", ".lower", ".estimate", ".upper", ".alpha", and ".method". If keep_reps = TRUE, an additional list column called ".replicates" is also returned.

Rolling Origin Forecast Resampling

Description

[Superseded]

This resampling method is useful when the data set has a strong time component. The resamples are not random and contain data points that are consecutive values. The function assumes that the original data set are sorted in time order.

This function is superseded by sliding_window(), sliding_index(), and sliding_period() which provide more flexibility and control. Superseded functions will not go away, but active development will be focused on the new functions.

Usage

rolling_origin(
  data,
  initial = 5,
  assess = 1,
  cumulative = TRUE,
  skip = 0,
  lag = 0,
  ...
)

Arguments

data

A data frame.

initial

The number of samples used for analysis/modeling in the initial resample.

assess

The number of samples used for each assessment resample.

cumulative

A logical. Should the analysis resample grow beyond the size specified by initial at each resample?.

skip

A integer indicating how many (if any) additional resamples to skip to thin the total amount of data points in the analysis resample. See the example below.

lag

A value to include a lag between the assessment and analysis set. This is useful if lagged predictors will be used during training and testing.

...

These dots are for future extensions and must be empty.

Details

The main options, initial and assess, control the number of data points from the original data that are in the analysis and assessment set, respectively. When cumulative = TRUE, the analysis set will grow as resampling continues while the assessment set size will always remain static. skip enables the function to not use every data point in the resamples. When skip = 0, the resampling data sets will increment by one position. Suppose that the rows of a data set are consecutive days. Using skip = 6 will make the analysis data set to operate on weeks instead of days. The assessment set size is not affected by this option.

Value

An tibble with classes rolling_origin, rset, tbl_df, tbl, and data.frame. The results include a column for the data split objects and a column called id that has a character string with the resample identifier.

See Also

sliding_window(), sliding_index(), and sliding_period() for additional time based resampling functions.

Examples

set.seed(1131)
ex_data <- data.frame(row = 1:20, some_var = rnorm(20))
dim(rolling_origin(ex_data))
dim(rolling_origin(ex_data, skip = 2))
dim(rolling_origin(ex_data, skip = 2, cumulative = FALSE))

# You can also roll over calendar periods by first nesting by that period,
# which is especially useful for irregular series where a fixed window
# is not useful. This example slides over 5 years at a time.
library(dplyr)
library(tidyr)
data(drinks, package = "modeldata")

drinks_annual <- drinks %>%
  mutate(year = as.POSIXlt(date)$year + 1900) %>%
  nest(data = c(-year))

multi_year_roll <- rolling_origin(drinks_annual, cumulative = FALSE)

analysis(multi_year_roll$splits[[1]])
assessment(multi_year_roll$splits[[1]])

Compatibility with dplyr

Description

This page lays out the compatibility between rsample and dplyr. The rset objects from rsample are a specific subclass of tibbles, hence standard dplyr operations like joins as well row or column modifications work. However, whether the operation returns an rset or a tibble depends on the details of the operation.

The overarching principle is that any operation which leaves the specific characteristics of an rset intact will return an rset. If an operation modifies any of the following characteristics, the result will be a tibble rather than an rset:

  • Rows: The number of rows needs to remain unchanged to retain the rset property. For example, you can't have a 10-fold CV object without 10 rows. The order of the rows can be changed though and the object remains an rset.

  • Columns: The splits column and the id column(s) are required for an rset and need to remain untouched. They cannot be dropped, renamed, or modified if the result should remain an rset.

Joins

The following affect all of the dplyr joins, such as left_join(), right_join(), full_join(), and inner_join().

The resulting object is an rset if the number of rows is unaffected. Rows can be reordered but not added or removed, otherwise the resulting object is a tibble.

operation same rows, possibly reordered add or remove rows
join(rset, tbl) rset tibble

Row Operations

The resulting object is an rset if the number of rows is unaffected. Rows can be reordered but not added or removed, otherwise the resulting object is a tibble.

operation same rows, possibly reordered add or remove rows
rset[ind,] rset tibble
slice(rset) rset tibble
filter(rset) rset tibble
arrange(rset) rset tibble

Column Operations

The resulting object is an rset if the required splits and id columns remain unaltered. Otherwise the resulting object is a tibble.

operation required columns unaltered required columns removed, renamed, or modified
rset[,ind] rset tibble
select(rset) rset tibble
rename(rset) rset tibble
mutate(rset) rset tibble

Convert Resampling Objects to Other Formats

Description

These functions can convert resampling objects between rsample and caret.

Usage

rsample2caret(object, data = c("analysis", "assessment"))

caret2rsample(ctrl, data = NULL)

Arguments

object

An rset object. Currently, nested_cv() is not supported.

data

The data that was originally used to produce the ctrl object.

ctrl

An object produced by caret::trainControl() that has had the index and indexOut elements populated by integers. One method of getting this is to extract the control objects from an object produced by train.

Value

rsample2caret() returns a list that mimics the index and indexOut elements of a trainControl object. caret2rsample() returns an rset object of the appropriate class.


Extending rsample with new rset subclasses

Description

rset_reconstruct() encapsulates the logic for allowing new rset subclasses to work properly with vctrs (through vctrs::vec_restore()) and dplyr (through dplyr::dplyr_reconstruct()). It is intended to be a developer tool, and is not required for normal usage of rsample.

Usage

rset_reconstruct(x, to)

Arguments

x

A data frame to restore to an rset subclass.

to

An rset subclass to restore to.

Details

rset objects are considered "reconstructable" after a vctrs/dplyr operation if:

  • x and to both have an identical column named "splits" (column and row order do not matter).

  • x and to both have identical columns prefixed with "id" (column and row order do not matter).

Value

x restored to the rset subclass of to.

Examples

to <- bootstraps(mtcars, times = 25)

# Imitate a vctrs/dplyr operation,
# where the class might be lost along the way
x <- tibble::as_tibble(to)

# Say we added a new column to `x`. Here we mock a `mutate()`.
x$foo <- "bar"

# This is still reconstructable to `to`
rset_reconstruct(x, to)

# Say we lose the first row
x <- x[-1, ]

# This is no longer reconstructable to `to`, as `x` is no longer an rset
# bootstraps object with 25 bootstraps if one is lost!
rset_reconstruct(x, to)

Time-based Resampling

Description

These resampling functions are focused on various forms of time series resampling.

  • sliding_window() uses the row number when computing the resampling indices. It is independent of any time index, but is useful with completely regular series.

  • sliding_index() computes resampling indices relative to the index column. This is often a Date or POSIXct column, but doesn't have to be. This is useful when resampling irregular series, or for using irregular lookback periods such as lookback = lubridate::years(1) with daily data (where the number of days in a year may vary).

  • sliding_period() first breaks up the index into less granular groups based on period, and then uses that to construct the resampling indices. This is extremely useful for constructing rolling monthly or yearly windows from daily data.

Usage

sliding_window(
  data,
  ...,
  lookback = 0L,
  assess_start = 1L,
  assess_stop = 1L,
  complete = TRUE,
  step = 1L,
  skip = 0L
)

sliding_index(
  data,
  index,
  ...,
  lookback = 0L,
  assess_start = 1L,
  assess_stop = 1L,
  complete = TRUE,
  step = 1L,
  skip = 0L
)

sliding_period(
  data,
  index,
  period,
  ...,
  lookback = 0L,
  assess_start = 1L,
  assess_stop = 1L,
  complete = TRUE,
  step = 1L,
  skip = 0L,
  every = 1L,
  origin = NULL
)

Arguments

data

A data frame.

...

These dots are for future extensions and must be empty.

lookback

The number of elements to look back from the current element when computing the resampling indices of the analysis set. The current row is always included in the analysis set.

  • For sliding_window(), a single integer defining the number of rows to look back from the current row.

  • For sliding_index(), a single object that will be subtracted from the index as index - lookback to define the boundary of where to start searching for rows to include in the current resample. This is often an integer value corresponding to the number of days to look back, or a lubridate Period object.

  • For sliding_period(), a single integer defining the number of groups to look back from the current group, where the groups were defined from breaking up the index according to the period.

In all cases, Inf is also allowed to force an expanding window.

assess_start, assess_stop

This combination of arguments determines how far into the future to look when constructing the assessment set. Together they construct a range of ⁠[index + assess_start, index + assess_stop]⁠ to search for rows to include in the assessment set.

Generally, assess_start will always be 1 to indicate that the first value to potentially include in the assessment set should start one element after the current row, but it can be increased to a larger value to create "gaps" between the analysis and assessment set if you are worried about high levels of correlation in short term forecasting.

  • For sliding_window(), these are both single integers defining the number of rows to look forward from the current row.

  • For sliding_index(), these are single objects that will be added to the index to compute the range to search for rows to include in the assessment set. This is often an integer value corresponding to the number of days to look forward, or a lubridate Period object.

  • For sliding_period(), these are both single integers defining the number of groups to look forward from the current group, where the groups were defined from breaking up the index according to the period.

complete

A single logical. When using lookback to compute the analysis sets, should only complete windows be considered? If set to FALSE, partial windows will be used until it is possible to create a complete window (based on lookback). This is a way to use an expanding window up to a certain point, and then switch to a sliding window.

step

A single positive integer. After computing the resampling indices, step is used to thin out the results by selecting every step-th result by subsetting the indices with seq(1L, n_indices, by = step). step is applied after skip. Note that step is independent of any time index used.

skip

A single positive integer, or zero. After computing the resampling indices, the first skip results will be dropped by subsetting the indices with seq(skip + 1L, n_indices). This can be especially useful when combined with lookback = Inf, which creates an expanding window starting from the first row. By skipping forward, you can drop the first few windows that have very few data points. skip is applied before step. Note that skip is independent of any time index used.

index

The index to compute resampling indices relative to, specified as a bare column name. This must be an existing column in data.

  • For sliding_index(), this is commonly a date vector, but is not required.

  • For sliding_period(), it is required that this is a Date or POSIXct vector.

The index must be an increasing vector, but duplicate values are allowed. Additionally, the index cannot contain any missing values.

period

The period to group the index by. This is specified as a single string, such as "year" or "month". See the .period argument of slider::slide_period() for the full list of options and further explanation.

every

A single positive integer. The number of periods to group together.

For example, if the period was set to "year" with an every value of 2, then the years 1970 and 1971 would be placed in the same group.

origin

The reference date time value. The default when left as NULL is the epoch time of ⁠1970-01-01 00:00:00⁠, in the time zone of the index.

This is generally used to define the anchor time to count from, which is relevant when the every value is ⁠> 1⁠.

Examples

library(vctrs)
library(tibble)
library(modeldata)
data("Chicago")

index <- new_date(c(1, 3, 4, 7, 8, 9, 13, 15, 16, 17))
df <- tibble(x = 1:10, index = index)
df

# Look back two rows beyond the current row, for a total of three rows
# in each analysis set. Each assessment set is composed of the two rows after
# the current row.
sliding_window(df, lookback = 2, assess_stop = 2)

# Same as before, but step forward by 3 rows between each resampling slice,
# rather than just by 1.
rset <- sliding_window(df, lookback = 2, assess_stop = 2, step = 3)
rset

analysis(rset$splits[[1]])
analysis(rset$splits[[2]])

# Now slide relative to the `index` column in `df`. This time we look back
# 2 days from the current row's `index` value, and 2 days forward from
# it to construct the assessment set. Note that this series is irregular,
# so it produces different results than `sliding_window()`. Additionally,
# note that it is entirely possible for the assessment set to contain no
# data if you have a highly irregular series and "look forward" into a
# date range where no data points actually exist!
sliding_index(df, index, lookback = 2, assess_stop = 2)

# With `sliding_period()`, we can break up our date index into less granular
# chunks, and slide over them instead of the index directly. Here we'll use
# the Chicago data, which contains daily data spanning 16 years, and we'll
# break it up into rolling yearly chunks. Three years worth of data will
# be used for the analysis set, and one years worth of data will be held out
# for performance assessment.
sliding_period(
  Chicago,
  date,
  "year",
  lookback = 2,
  assess_stop = 1
)

# Because `lookback = 2`, three years are required to form a "complete"
# window of data. To allow partial windows, set `complete = FALSE`.
# Here that first constructs two expanding windows until a complete three
# year window can be formed, at which point we switch to a sliding window.
sliding_period(
  Chicago,
  date,
  "year",
  lookback = 2,
  assess_stop = 1,
  complete = FALSE
)

# Alternatively, you could break the resamples up by month. Here we'll
# use an expanding monthly window by setting `lookback = Inf`, and each
# assessment set will contain two months of data. To ensure that we have
# enough data to fit our models, we'll `skip` the first 4 expanding windows.
# Finally, to thin out the results, we'll `step` forward by 2 between
# each resample.
sliding_period(
  Chicago,
  date,
  "month",
  lookback = Inf,
  assess_stop = 2,

Tidy Resampling Object

Description

The tidy() function from the broom package can be used on rset and rsplit objects to generate tibbles with which rows are in the analysis and assessment sets.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'rsplit'
tidy(x, unique_ind = TRUE, ...)

## S3 method for class 'rset'
tidy(x, unique_ind = TRUE, ...)

## S3 method for class 'vfold_cv'
tidy(x, ...)

## S3 method for class 'nested_cv'
tidy(x, unique_ind = TRUE, ...)

Arguments

x

A rset or rsplit object

unique_ind

Should unique row identifiers be returned? For example, if FALSE then bootstrapping results will include multiple rows in the sample for the same row in the original data.

...

These dots are for future extensions and must be empty.

Details

Note that for nested resampling, the rows of the inner resample, named inner_Row, are relative row indices and do not correspond to the rows in the original data set.

Value

A tibble with columns Row and Data. The latter has possible values "Analysis" or "Assessment". For rset inputs, identification columns are also returned but their names and values depend on the type of resampling. For vfold_cv(), contains a column "Fold" and, if repeats are used, another called "Repeats". bootstraps() and mc_cv() use the column "Resample".

Examples

library(ggplot2)
theme_set(theme_bw())

set.seed(4121)
cv <- tidy(vfold_cv(mtcars, v = 5))
ggplot(cv, aes(x = Fold, y = Row, fill = Data)) +
  geom_tile() +
  scale_fill_brewer()

set.seed(4121)
rcv <- tidy(vfold_cv(mtcars, v = 5, repeats = 2))
ggplot(rcv, aes(x = Fold, y = Row, fill = Data)) +
  geom_tile() +
  facet_wrap(~Repeat) +
  scale_fill_brewer()

set.seed(4121)
mccv <- tidy(mc_cv(mtcars, times = 5))
ggplot(mccv, aes(x = Resample, y = Row, fill = Data)) +
  geom_tile() +
  scale_fill_brewer()

set.seed(4121)
bt <- tidy(bootstraps(mtcars, time = 5))
ggplot(bt, aes(x = Resample, y = Row, fill = Data)) +
  geom_tile() +
  scale_fill_brewer()

dat <- data.frame(day = 1:30)
# Resample by week instead of day
ts_cv <- rolling_origin(dat,
  initial = 7, assess = 7,
  skip = 6, cumulative = FALSE
)
ts_cv <- tidy(ts_cv)
ggplot(ts_cv, aes(x = Resample, y = factor(Row), fill = Data)) +
  geom_tile() +
  scale_fill_brewer()

Create a Validation Split for Tuning

Description

validation_set() creates a the validation split for model tuning.

Usage

validation_set(split, ...)

## S3 method for class 'val_split'
analysis(x, ...)

## S3 method for class 'val_split'
assessment(x, ...)

## S3 method for class 'val_split'
training(x, ...)

## S3 method for class 'val_split'
validation(x, ...)

## S3 method for class 'val_split'
testing(x, ...)

Arguments

split

An object of class initial_validation_split, such as resulting from initial_validation_split() or group_initial_validation_split().

...

These dots are for future extensions and must be empty.

x

An rsplit object produced by validation_set().

Value

An tibble with classes validation_set, rset, tbl_df, tbl, and data.frame. The results include a column for the data split object and a column called id that has a character string with the resample identifier.

Examples

set.seed(1353)
car_split <- initial_validation_split(mtcars)
car_set <- validation_set(car_split)

V-Fold Cross-Validation

Description

V-fold cross-validation (also known as k-fold cross-validation) randomly splits the data into V groups of roughly equal size (called "folds"). A resample of the analysis data consists of V-1 of the folds while the assessment set contains the final fold. In basic V-fold cross-validation (i.e. no repeats), the number of resamples is equal to V.

Usage

vfold_cv(data, v = 10, repeats = 1, strata = NULL, breaks = 4, pool = 0.1, ...)

Arguments

data

A data frame.

v

The number of partitions of the data set.

repeats

The number of times to repeat the V-fold partitioning.

strata

A variable in data (single character or name) used to conduct stratified sampling. When not NULL, each resample is created within the stratification variable. Numeric strata are binned into quartiles.

breaks

A single number giving the number of bins desired to stratify a numeric stratification variable.

pool

A proportion of data used to determine if a particular group is too small and should be pooled into another group. We do not recommend decreasing this argument below its default of 0.1 because of the dangers of stratifying groups that are too small.

...

These dots are for future extensions and must be empty.

Details

With more than one repeat, the basic V-fold cross-validation is conducted each time. For example, if three repeats are used with v = 10, there are a total of 30 splits: three groups of 10 that are generated separately.

With a strata argument, the random sampling is conducted within the stratification variable. This can help ensure that the resamples have equivalent proportions as the original data set. For a categorical variable, sampling is conducted separately within each class. For a numeric stratification variable, strata is binned into quartiles, which are then used to stratify. Strata below 10% of the total are pooled together; see make_strata() for more details.

Value

A tibble with classes vfold_cv, rset, tbl_df, tbl, and data.frame. The results include a column for the data split objects and one or more identification variables. For a single repeat, there will be one column called id that has a character string with the fold identifier. For repeats, id is the repeat number and an additional column called id2 that contains the fold information (within repeat).

Examples

vfold_cv(mtcars, v = 10)
vfold_cv(mtcars, v = 10, repeats = 2)

library(purrr)
data(wa_churn, package = "modeldata")

set.seed(13)
folds1 <- vfold_cv(wa_churn, v = 5)
map_dbl(
  folds1$splits,
  function(x) {
    dat <- as.data.frame(x)$churn
    mean(dat == "Yes")
  }
)

set.seed(13)
folds2 <- vfold_cv(wa_churn, strata = churn, v = 5)
map_dbl(
  folds2$splits,
  function(x) {
    dat <- as.data.frame(x)$churn
    mean(dat == "Yes")
  }
)

set.seed(13)
folds3 <- vfold_cv(wa_churn, strata = tenure, breaks = 6, v = 5)
map_dbl(
  folds3$splits,
  function(x) {
    dat <- as.data.frame(x)$churn
    mean(dat == "Yes")
  }
)
