getStratify(strat, d)
checkMissing(x, y)
checkWeights(w, n)
checkID(id)
checkOffset(o, y)
getVarNames(x)
gbmCluster(n)

Arguments

y

The response variable

d, distribution

The distribution, either specified by the user or implied

class.stratify.cv

Whether or not to stratify, if provided by the user

i.train

Computed internally by gbm

group

The group, if using distibution='pairwise'

strat

Whether or not to stratify

cv.folds

The number of cross-validation folds

x
