I then define my custom RMSLE function using Metrics
package:
rmsleMetric <- function(data, lev = NULL, model = NULL){
out <- Metrics::rmsle(data$obs, data$pred)
names(out) <- c("rmsle")
return (out)
}
Then, I define the trainControl
:
tc <- trainControl(method = "repeatedcv",
number = 5,
repeats = 5,
summaryFunction = rmsleMetric,
classProbs = TRUE)
My grid search:
tg <- expand.grid(alpha = 0, lambda = seq(0, 1, by = 0.1))
Finally, my model:
penalizedLogit_ridge <- train(positiveTransaction ~ .,
data = training_data,
metric="rmsle",
method = "glmnet",
family = "binomial",
trControl = tc,
tuneGrid = tg
)
When I try to run the command above, I get an error:
Something is wrong; all the rmsle metric values are missing:
rmsle
Min. : NA
1st Qu.: NA
Median : NA
Mean :NaN
3rd Qu.: NA
Max. : NA
NA's :11
Error: Stopping
In addition: There were 50 or more warnings (use warnings() to see the first 50)
Looking at warnings, I find:
1: In Ops.factor(1, actual) : ‘+’ not meaningful for factors
2: In Ops.factor(1, predicted) : ‘+’ not meaningful for factors
repeated 25 times
Since the same thing works fine if I change the metric to AUC
using prSummary
as my summary function, I don't believe that there are any issues with my data.
So, I believe that my function is wrong but I don't know how to figure out why it is wrong.
Any help is highly appreciated.

Your custom metric is not defined properly. If you use classProbs = TRUE
and savePredictions = "final"
with trainControl
you will realize that there are two columns named according to your target classes which hold the predicted probabilities while the data$pred
column holds the predicted class which can not be used to calculate the desired metric.
A proper way to define the function would be to get the possible levels and use them to extract the probabilities for one of the classes:
rmsleMetric <- function(data, lev = NULL, model = NULL){
lvls <- levels(data$obs)
out <- Metrics::rmsle(ifelse(data$obs == lev[2], 0, 1),
data[, lvls[1]])
names(out) <- c("rmsle")
return (out)
}
does it work:
library(caret)
library(mlbench)
data(Sonar)
tc <- trainControl(method = "repeatedcv",
number = 2,
repeats = 2,
summaryFunction = rmsleMetric,
classProbs = TRUE,
savePredictions = "final")
tg <- expand.grid(alpha = 0, lambda = seq(0, 1, by = 0.1))
penalizedLogit_ridge <- train(Class ~ .,
data = Sonar,
metric="rmsle",
method = "glmnet",
family = "binomial",
trControl = tc,
tuneGrid = tg)
#output
glmnet
208 samples
60 predictor
2 classes: 'M', 'R'
No pre-processing
Resampling: Cross-Validated (2 fold, repeated 2 times)
Summary of sample sizes: 105, 103, 104, 104
Resampling results across tuning parameters:
lambda rmsle
0.0 0.2835407
0.1 0.2753197
0.2 0.2768288
0.3 0.2797847
0.4 0.2827953
0.5 0.2856088
0.6 0.2881894
0.7 0.2905501
0.8 0.2927171
0.9 0.2947169
1.0 0.2965505
Tuning parameter 'alpha' was held constant at a value of 0
rmsle was used to select the optimal model using the largest value.
The final values used for the model were alpha = 0 and lambda = 1.
You can inspect caret::twoClassSummary
- it is defined quite similarly.
