Hi, I have some difficulties in interpreting the prediction of a svm model using the package e1071.
y1 is the variable I want to predict. It is of type factor and has got two levels: "< 50%" and "> 50%". z is the dataset. > model <- svm(y1 ~ ., data = z,type="C-classification", cross=10) > model Call: svm(formula = y1 ~ ., data = z, type = "C-classification", cross = 10) Parameters: SVM-Type: C-classification SVM-Kernel: radial cost: 1 gamma: 0.07142857 Number of Support Vectors: 68 > pred <- predict(model,newdata=z,probability=TRUE,decision.values = TRUE) > table(pred) pred < 50% > 50% 414 0 The results of "pred" is not what I intended to get as, I expected this type of result: < 50% > 50% < 50% 89 25 > 50% 38 262 What should I do? -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Interpreting-predictions-of-svm-tp4639405.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
