r - 梯度下降算法错误 non-comformable arguments

Question

我正在尝试在 R 中从头开始执行线性回归，而不使用任何包或库。我使用的数据是:

UCI Machine Learning Repository, Bike-Sharing-Dataset

我必须对这个回归应用批量更新梯度下降算法。

我编写了以下代码:

> # Load the data
> data <- read.csv("Bike-Sharing-Dataset/hour.csv")
> 
> # Select the useable features
> data1 <- data[, c("season", "mnth", "hr", "holiday", "weekday", "workingday", "weathersit", "temp", "atemp", "hum", "windspeed", "cnt")]
> 
> # Examine the data structure
> str(data1)

当我尝试调用该函数并打印梯度下降的结果时，出现以下错误:

> print(grad.descent(x,1000))
 Show Traceback

 Rerun with Debug
 Error in x %*% t(theta) : non-conformable arguments 

> beta <- grad.descent(x,1000)
Error in x %*% t(theta) : non-conformable arguments

这是什么意思，我该如何解决？

Answer 1

尝试以下操作:

grad.descent <- function(x, maxit){
  theta <- matrix(rep(0, length=ncol(x)), nrow = 1) 
  alpha = .05 # set learning rate
  for (i in 1:maxit) {
    theta <- theta - alpha  * grad(x, y, theta)   
  }
  return(theta)
}

grad.descent(x,10)
               x0       season          mnth            hr

错误 non-conformable arguments 几乎总是表示您的矩阵的某些维度不匹配。在本例中，您将 theta 初始化为维度为 (1,2) 的矩阵，但您有十二个变量。

在相关说明中，您的步长相当大，这就是为什么您最终可能会得到奇怪的结果。要看到这一点，让我们使用以下内容:

grad <- function(x, y, theta) { # note that for readability, I redefined theta as a column vector
  gradient <-  1/m* t(x) %*% (x %*% theta - y) 
  return(gradient)
}
grad.descent <- function(x, maxit, alpha){
  theta <- matrix(rep(0, length=ncol(x)), ncol = 1)
  for (i in 1:maxit) {
    theta <- theta - alpha  * grad(x, y, theta)   
  }
  return(theta)
}

让我们用 0.05 和 0.005 的 alpha 来做:

data.frame(alpha_0.05 = grad.descent(x, maxit = 1000, alpha = 0.05),
           alpha_0.005 = grad.descent(x, maxit = 1000, alpha = 0.005))
