Having poked the problem a couple more times it appears my issue is
that the

have no idea why it is acting in this manner.

j<-j+1
results[j,]<-row.names(testing[c(i),])
Are we supposed to know where to find 'testing" (and if we cannot
find it, how is the R interpreter going to find it)?
print( row.names(kyphosis[c(i),]))
} }
{
print(results)
save(results, file="results") } }
i can load results from file and my out put is there. how ever if i
just
type results i get the original 1. what is in the lords name is
occurring.
Thanks

John -
In your example, the misclassified observations (as defined by
your predict.function) will be
kyphosis[kyphosis$Kyphosis == 'absent' & prediction[,1] != 1,]
so you could start from there.

Greetings R world,
I know some version of the this question has been asked before,
but i need
to save the output of a loop into a data frame to eventually be
written to
a
postgres data base with dbWriteTable. Some background. I have
developed
classifications models to help identify problem accounts. The
logic is
this,
if the model classifies the record as including variable X and it
turns
out
that record does not have X then it should be reviewed(ie i need
the row
number/ID saved to a database). Generally i want to look at the
misclassified records. This is a little hack i know, anyone got a
better
idea please let me know. Here is an example
library(rpart)
# grow tree
fit <- rpart(Kyphosis ~ Age + Number + Start,
method="class", data=kyphosis)
#predict
prediction<-predict(fit, kyphosis)
#misclassification index function
predict.function <- function(x){
for (i in 1:length(kyphosis$Kyphosis)) {
#the idea is that if the record is "absent" but the prediction is
otherwise
then show me that record
if (((kyphosis$Kyphosis[i]=="absent")==(prediction[i,1]==1)) == 0 ){
#THIS WORKS
print( row.names(kyphosis[c(i),]))
}
} }
predict.function(x)
Now my issue is that i want to save these id to a data.frame so i
can
later
save them to a database. This this an incorrect approach. Can I
save each
id
to the postgres instance as it is found. i have a ignorant fear of
lapply,
but it seems it may hold the key.
Ive tried
predict.function <- function(x){
results<-as.data.frame(1)
for (i in 1:length(kyphosis$Kyphosis)) {
#the idea is that if the record is "absent" but the prediction is
otherwise
then show me that record
if (((kyphosis$Kyphosis[i]=="absent")==(prediction[i,1]==1)) == 0 ){
#THIS WORKS
results[i,]<- as.data.frame(row.names(kyphosis[c(i),]))
}
} }
this does not work. results object does not get saved. Any Help
would be
greatly appreciated.
Thanks
