Hi, I am having some trouble using R 2.13.1 for generating a pmml object of of class "c('randomForest.formula', 'randomForest')"
I see that these methods are available: > methods(pmml) [1] pmml.coxph* pmml.hclust* pmml.itemsets* pmml.kmeans* pmml.ksvm* pmml.lm* pmml.multinom* pmml.nnet* pmml.rpart* [10] pmml.rsf* pmml.rules* pmml.survreg* However, the R journal 1/1 pg 64 says there should be a method available ( http://journal.r-project.org/2009-1/RJournal_2009-1_Guazzelli+et+al.pdf ): Random Forest (and randomSurvivalForest) — randomForest (Breiman and Cutler. R port by A. Liaw and M. Wiener, 2009) and randomSurvivalForest (Ishwaran and Kogalur , 2009): PMML export of a randomSurvivalForest "rsf" object. This function gives the user the ability to export PMML containing the geometry of a forest. However, if I run these lines of code: library(randomForest) (iris.rf<- randomForest(Species ~ ., data=iris)) pmml(iris.rf) I get this error: Error in UseMethod("pmml") : no applicable method for 'pmml' applied to an object of class "c('randomForest.formula', 'randomForest')" Also, if I run these lines of code data("Adult") ## Mine association rules. rules <- apriori(Adult, parameter = list(supp = 0.5, conf = 0.9, target = "rules")) pmml(rules) I get this error: > pmml(rules) Error in function (classes, fdef, mtable) : unable to find an inherited method for function "size", for signature "itemMatrix" With this traceback: > traceback() 5: stop("unable to find an inherited method for function \"", fdef@generic, "\", for signature ", cnames) 4: function (classes, fdef, mtable) { methods <- .findInheritedMethods(classes, fdef, mtable) if (length(methods) == 1L) return(methods[[1L]]) else if (length(methods) == 0L) { cnames <- paste("\"", sapply(classes, as.character), "\"", sep = "", collapse = ", ") stop("unable to find an inherited method for function \"", fdef@generic, "\", for signature ", cnames) } else stop("Internal error in finding inherited methods; didn't return a unique method") }(list("itemMatrix"), function (object) standardGeneric("size"), <environment>) 3: size(is.unique) 2: pmml.rules(rules) 1: pmml(rules) Thanks, Patrick McCann ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
