Fit an SVEMnet Model

Description

Wrapper for 'glmnet' (Friedman et al. 2010) to fit an ensemble of Elastic Net models using the Self-Validated Ensemble Model method (SVEM, Lemkus et al. 2021). Allows searching over multiple alpha values in the Elastic Net penalty.

Usage

SVEMnet(
  formula,
  data,
  nBoot = 300,
  glmnet_alpha = c(1),
  weight_scheme = c("SVEM", "FWR", "Identity"),
  objective = c("wAIC", "wBIC", "wGIC", "wSSE"),
  gamma = 2,
  standardize = TRUE,
  ...
)

Arguments

Details

The Self-Validated Ensemble Model (SVEM, Lemkus et al., 2021) framework provides a bootstrap approach to improve predictions from base learners, including Elastic Net regression as implemented in glmnet. In each of the nBoot iterations, SVEMnet applies random exponentially distributed weights to the observations; anti-correlated weights are used for validation when weight_scheme="SVEM".

SVEMnet allows glmnet_alpha to be a vector, enabling a search over multiple Elastic Net mixing parameters within each bootstrap. The objective controls how the validation criterion balances fit and complexity:

"wSSE"

Weighted Sum of Squared Errors: uses the weighted validation SSE directly.

"wAIC"

Weighted AIC (Gaussian): AIC = n * log(SSE_w / n) + 2 * k, where n = sum(w_valid) (after normalization) and k counts parameters including the intercept. Candidates require k < n.

"wBIC"

Weighted BIC-like criterion: n * log(SSE_w / n) + log(n_eff) * k, with n_eff = (sum(w_valid)^2) / sum(w_valid^2) (Kish). For stability, n_eff is clipped to [5, n]. Candidates require k < n and k < n_eff - 1.

"wGIC"

Weighted Generalized Information Criterion: n * log(SSE_w / n) + gamma * k. Here gamma is a fixed nonnegative number. For robustness near the boundary, candidates require k < n and k < n_eff - 1.

Note on BIC: In reweighted validation, information content varies with weight heterogeneity; using log(n_eff) adapts the penalty to that effective size. With uniform weights (Identity), n_eff = n and you recover standard BIC.

A debiased fit is output (along with the standard fit). This is provided to allow the user to match the output of JMP, which returns a debiased fit whenever nBoot >= 10. The debiasing coefficients are always calculated by SVEMnet(), and the predict() method determines whether the raw or debiased predictions are returned via its debias argument. The default is debias = FALSE, based on performance on unpublished simulations.

The returned object includes averaged coefficients (parms), debiased coefficients (parms_debiased), the calibration fit (debias_fit), per-bootstrap coefficients, chosen alphas and lambdas, the chosen objective (and gamma if applicable), and a compact diagnostics list (median/IQR of selected model size and alpha frequencies).

Value

An object of class svem_model.

Fit a glmnet Model with Cross-Validation

Description

A wrapper function for cv.glmnet that takes input arguments in a manner similar to SVEMnet. This function searches over multiple alpha values by running cv.glmnet() for each provided alpha, and then selects the combination of alpha and lambda with the best cross-validation performance.

Usage

glmnet_with_cv(
  formula,
  data,
  glmnet_alpha = c(0, 0.5, 1),
  standardize = TRUE,
  nfolds = 10,
  ...
)

Arguments

Details

This function uses cv.glmnet to fit a generalized linear model with elastic net regularization, performing k-fold cross-validation to select the regularization parameter lambda. If multiple alpha values are provided, it selects the best-performing alpha-lambda pair based on the minimal cross-validation error.

After fitting, the function calculates a debiasing linear model (if possible). This is done by regressing the actual responses on the fitted values obtained from the selected model. The resulting linear model is stored in debias_fit.

Value

A list containing:

• parms: Coefficients from the selected cv.glmnet model at lambda.min.

• debias_fit: A linear model of the form y ~ y_pred used for debiasing (if applicable).

• glmnet_alpha: The vector of alpha values considered.

• best_alpha: The selected alpha value that gave the best cross-validation result.

• best_lambda: The lambda value chosen by cross-validation at the selected alpha.

• actual_y: The response vector used in the model.

• training_X: The predictor matrix used in the model.

• y_pred: The fitted values from the final model (no debiasing).

• y_pred_debiased: Debiased fitted values if debias_fit is available.

• formula: The formula used for model fitting.

• terms: The terms object extracted from the model frame.

Predict Method for SVEM Models

Description

Generates predictions from a fitted svem_model.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'svem_model'
predict(
  object,
  newdata,
  debias = FALSE,
  se.fit = FALSE,
  agg = c("parms", "mean"),
  ...
)

Arguments

Details

A debiased fit is available (along with the standard fit). This is provided to allow the user to match the output of JMP. The debiasing coefficients are always calculated by SVEMnet(), and the predict() function determines whether the raw or debiased predictions are returned via the debias argument (default FALSE). When se.fit=TRUE and debias=TRUE, the reported SE is the bootstrap spread scaled by |b| from the calibration y \sim y_{pred}.

Value

Print Method for SVEM Significance Test

Description

Prints the p-value from an object of class svem_significance_test.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'svem_significance_test'
print(x, ...)

Arguments

Generate a Random Prediction Table for a Fitted SVEMnet Model

Description

This utility function generates a random sample of points from the predictor space and computes the corresponding predicted responses from a fitted SVEMnet model. It can be used to explore the fitted response surface in a way analogous to JMP's "Output Random Table" feature. The function recognizes mixture factor groups and draws Dirichlet-distributed compositions within the specified bounds so that mixture variables sum to a user-supplied total. Continuous non-mixture variables are sampled uniformly across their observed ranges using a maximin Latin hypercube design, and categorical variables are sampled from their observed levels. No random noise is added to the predicted responses.

Usage

svem_random_table(
  formula,
  data,
  n = 1000,
  mixture_groups = NULL,
  nBoot = 200,
  glmnet_alpha = c(1),
  weight_scheme = c("SVEM"),
  objective = c("wAIC", "wSSE"),
  debias = FALSE,
  ...
)

Arguments

Details

This function first fits an SVEMnet model using the supplied parameters. It then generates a random grid of points in the predictor space, honouring mixture constraints if 'mixture_groups' is provided. Predictions are computed from the fitted model on these points. No random noise is added; the predictions come directly from the model. If you wish to explore the uncertainty of predictions, consider adding noise separately or using the standard error output from 'predict.svem_model()'.

Value

A data frame containing the sampled predictor values and the corresponding predicted responses. The response column is named according to the left-hand side of 'formula'.

SVEM Significance Test with Mixture Support

Description

Performs a whole-model significance test using the SVEM framework and allows the user to specify mixture factor groups. Mixture factors are sets of continuous variables that are constrained to sum to a constant (the mixture total) and have optional lower and upper bounds. When mixture groups are supplied, the grid of evaluation points is generated by sampling Dirichlet variates over the mixture simplex rather than by independently sampling each continuous predictor. Non-mixture continuous predictors are sampled via a maximin Latin hypercube over their observed ranges, and categorical predictors are sampled from their observed levels. The remainder of the algorithm follows 'svem_significance_test()', computing standardized predictions on the grid, refitting SVEM on permutations of the response, and calculating a Mahalanobis distance for the original and permutation fits.

Usage

svem_significance_test(
  formula,
  data,
  mixture_groups = NULL,
  nPoint = 2000,
  nSVEM = 5,
  nPerm = 125,
  percent = 85,
  nBoot = 200,
  glmnet_alpha = c(1),
  weight_scheme = c("SVEM"),
  objective = c("wAIC", "wSSE"),
  verbose = TRUE,
  ...
)

Arguments

Details

This function extends 'svem_significance_test()' by allowing the user to specify mixture factor groups. In a mixture group, the specified variables are jointly sampled from a Dirichlet distribution so that their values sum to the specified 'total'. Lower and upper bounds can be supplied to shift and scale the mixture simplex. Feasibility is checked ('sum(lower) <= total <= sum(upper)'), and samples are generated as 'lower + (total - sum(lower)) * w' for Dirichlet weights 'w', with rejection of any draws violating the upper bounds. This guarantees the correct total while respecting all bounds.

If no mixture groups are supplied, this function behaves identically to 'svem_significance_test()'.

Value

A list of class 'svem_significance_test' containing the test results.
