Thanks, Ben. Specifying the data in this way should give me what I need - I can do this in a loop fairly easily and wind up with what I want in the end. And I should've been more specific, I think that mboost can handle time-series data, it's the fact that the data is a panel bit that was giving me issues--I'd like to think about using base learners that can handle panel data in the future so if you have any suggestions there I'd be happy to hear them.
Also, don't worry, the models I specify are tuned and I have thought about what base learners are appropriate; I left it as a blackbox for the exposition of my post. :) Anyway, many thanks, Travis -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Out-of-sample-predictions-with-boosting-model-tp2305458p2308082.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________ 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.
