The question is if I can recover the data (1:10) on that platform.Is this a more realistic reproducible example (from ?rfe, modified to use computeFunction=mclapply)?data(BloodBrain) x <- scale(bbbDescr[,-nearZeroVar(bbbDescr)]) x <- x[, -findCorrelation(cor(x), .8)] x <- as.data.frame(x) set.seed(1) lmProfile <- rfe(x, logBBB, sizes = c(2:25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, 60, 65), rfeControl = rfeControl(functions = lmFuncs, number = 5, computeFunction=mclapply)) Maybe provide a computeFunction that only indirectly references mclapply computeFunction=function(...) { if (require(multicore)) mclapply(...) else lapply(...) } [...]
Yes, that workaround works for my usage. Thanks!
