?lda explains the object produced: please do study it.

Hint: you asked for leave-one-out cross-validation, and what is the output from cross-validation of a classifer? The predicted class for each observation. How many observations do you have?

You are using software from a contributed package without credit, and that software is support for a book (see library(help=MASS) and the help page). Please consult the book for the background.

Hi all,

I'm working with some data: 54 variables and a column of classes, each observation as one of a possible seven different classes:

var.can3<-lda(x=dados[,c(1:28,30:54)],grouping=dados[,55],CV=TRUE)
Warning message:
In lda.default(x, grouping, ...) : variables are collinear
summary(var.can3)
         Length Class  Mode
class      30000 factor numeric   ### why?? I don't understand it
posterior 210000 -none- numeric
call           4 -none- call    ## what's this?


var.can<-lda(dados[,c(1:28,30:54)],dados[,55])#porque a variavel 29 é constante

I don't know wether I need to specify a training set and a testing set, I also don't know the error nor the classifier; shouldn't the lenght of class of var.can3 be 7 since I only have 7 different classes?

Best regards,

Pedro Marques
