Darrin, what version of R are you using have the same question. I have been using the gbm package without problem with R 2.7.1. but I recently switched computers and downloaded 2.7.2. I used the following code, which works fine on my old computer with 2.7.1 but I get an error with the new version.
> fin.tc5.lr01 <- gbm.step(data=fin, + gbm.x = 7:14, + gbm.y = 24, + family = "bernoulli", + tree.complexity = 5, + learning.rate = 0.01, + bag.fraction = 0.5) Error: could not find function "gbm.step" Darin Brooks wrote: > > Good afternoon > > Has anyone tried using Dr. Elith's BRT script?
