Hello all,
I would like to perform SVM-RFE (Guyon et al. 2002) in R and have only found
one implementation of this algorithm. The function belongs
to the MCRestimate package but when I try to use it I encounter a problem
- the function appears to be missing a required package or other function
that I simply cannot find available anywhere.
Here is my session info followed by a simple example with the error message
I receive when using the function varSel.svm.rfe:
> sessionInfo()
R version 2.7.1 (2008-06-23)

> classes<-c(1,1,0,0)
> varSel.svm.rfe(m,classes)
Loading required package: rfe
Error in varSel.svm.rfe(m, classes) : could not find function "rfe.cv"
In addition: Warning message:
In library(package, lib.loc = lib.loc, character.only = TRUE, logical.return
= TRUE, :
there is no package called 'rfe'
Thanks in advance for any help/suggestions,
