It is having trouble computing the underlying Cholesky decomposition.
There is colinearity in the data (although I would not have thought that it would be bad enough to be an issue). The first principal component in the data accounts for about 58% of the total variation, which indicates a fairly strong between-predictor correlation.
You could try giving rvm
the complete set of PCA scores or remove a variable prior to fitting (see findCorrelation
). It seems like an issue with rvm
and the numerics rather than caret
.
Hi Topepo,
Sorry for the late response. I am making a performance comparison study on different type of feature selection algorithms. Based on this error, whenever I run a feature selection algorithm, it is highly possible to see this error again. Because, they might select features that have colinearity. Am I right on this?
Yes. You could run an unsupervised filter on the data before using rvm
using the preProc
option. That would help reduce errors.
Hello,
I am receiving the following error when I would like to train Relevance Vector Machines with Linear Kernel (rvmLinear) with less-dimension training data.
Error message:
This issue happened when I reduced the number of features from the training data. In the beginning, training data had 98 features, and rvmLinear model generated pretty good results. Then, I run a feature selection algorithm and it selected 7 features. After that, I reduced the number of features as selected by the algorithm; then, the model is not being trained with data has 7 features.
