缺省起始值,使用glm拟合逻辑回归

问题描述 投票:10回答:1

我想知道glm中如何指定默认起始值​​。

post建议将默认值设置为零。 one表示其背后有一个算法,但是相关链接已断开。

我试图用算法跟踪拟合简单的逻辑回归模型:

set.seed(123)

x <- rnorm(100)
p <- 1/(1 + exp(-x))
y <- rbinom(100, size = 1, prob = p)

# to see parameter estimates in each step
trace(glm.fit, quote(print(coefold)), at = list(c(22, 4, 8, 4, 19, 3)))

首先,不指定初始值:

glm(y ~ x, family = "binomial")

Tracing glm.fit(x = structure(c(1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1,  .... step 22,4,8,4,19,3 
NULL
Tracing glm.fit(x = structure(c(1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1,  .... step 22,4,8,4,19,3 
[1] 0.386379 1.106234
Tracing glm.fit(x = structure(c(1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1,  .... step 22,4,8,4,19,3 
[1] 0.3991135 1.1653971
Tracing glm.fit(x = structure(c(1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1,  .... step 22,4,8,4,19,3 
[1] 0.3995188 1.1669508

第一步,初始值为NULL

第二,我将起始值设置为零:

glm(y ~ x, family = "binomial", start = c(0, 0))

Tracing glm.fit(x = structure(c(1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1,  .... step 22,4,8,4,19,3 
[1] 0 0
Tracing glm.fit(x = structure(c(1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1,  .... step 22,4,8,4,19,3 
[1] 0.3177530 0.9097521
Tracing glm.fit(x = structure(c(1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1,  .... step 22,4,8,4,19,3 
[1] 0.3909975 1.1397163
Tracing glm.fit(x = structure(c(1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1,  .... step 22,4,8,4,19,3 
[1] 0.3994147 1.1666173
Tracing glm.fit(x = structure(c(1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1,  .... step 22,4,8,4,19,3 
[1] 0.3995191 1.1669518

而且我们可以看到第一种方法和第二种方法之间的迭代是不同的。

[要查看由glm指定的初始值,我尝试仅通过一次迭代就拟合模型:

glm(y ~ x, family = "binomial", control = list(maxit = 1))

Tracing glm.fit(x = structure(c(1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1,  .... step 22,4,8,4,19,3 
NULL

Call:  glm(formula = y ~ x, family = "binomial", control = list(maxit = 1))

Coefficients:
(Intercept)            x  
     0.3864       1.1062  

Degrees of Freedom: 99 Total (i.e. Null);  98 Residual
Null Deviance:      134.6 
Residual Deviance: 115  AIC: 119

参数的估计(毫不奇怪)对应于第二次迭代中第一种方法的估计,即[1] 0.386379 1.106234将这些值设置为初始值会导致与第一种方法相同的迭代序列:

glm(y ~ x, family = "binomial", start = c(0.386379, 1.106234))

Tracing glm.fit(x = structure(c(1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1,  .... step 22,4,8,4,19,3 
[1] 0.386379 1.106234
Tracing glm.fit(x = structure(c(1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1,  .... step 22,4,8,4,19,3 
[1] 0.3991135 1.1653971
Tracing glm.fit(x = structure(c(1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1,  .... step 22,4,8,4,19,3 
[1] 0.3995188 1.1669508

所以问题是,这些值如何计算?

TL; DR

  • [start=c(b0,b1)将eta初始化为b0+x*b1(mu到1 /(1 + exp(-eta)))
  • [start=c(0,0)将eta初始化为0(μ到0.5),与y或x值无关。
  • start=NULL如果y = 1,则初始化eta = 1.098612(mu = 0.75),与x值无关。
  • [start=NULL如果y = 0,则初始化eta = -1.098612(mu = 0.25),与x值无关。

  • 根据w的精神,计算出
  • 一次eta(因此计算了mu和var(mu)),计算了zqr.solve(cbind(1,x) * w, z*w)并将其发送到QR解算器。

Longform

[建立Roland的注释:我创建了glm.fit.truncated(),将glm.fit移至C_Cdqrls调用,然后将其注释掉了。 glm.fit.truncated输出zw值(以及用于计算zw的数量的值),然后将其传递给C_Cdqrls调用:

## call Fortran code via C wrapper
fit <- .Call(C_Cdqrls, x[good, , drop = FALSE] * w, z * w,
             min(1e-7, control$epsilon/1000), check=FALSE) 

可以阅读有关C_Cdqrls here的更多信息。幸运的是,基数R中的函数qr.solve直接进入glm.fit()中调用的LINPACK版本。

因此我们针对不同的起始值规格运行glm.fit.truncated,然后使用w和z值调用qr.solve,然后我们将看到如何计算“起始值”(或第一个显示的迭代值) 。如Roland所指出的,在glm()中指定start=NULLstart=c(0,0)会影响w和z的计算,而startnot会影响计算。

对于开始= NULL:z是一个向量,其中元素的值为2.431946或-2.431946,w是一个向量,其中所有元素的值为0.4330127:

start.is.null <- glm.fit.truncated(x,y,family=binomial(), start=NULL)
start.is.null
w <- start.is.null$w
z <- start.is.null$z
## if start is NULL, the first displayed values are:
qr.solve(cbind(1,x) * w, z*w)  
# > qr.solve(cbind(1,x) * w, z*w)  
#                 x 
# 0.386379 1.106234 

对于开始= c(0,0):z是元素值为2或-2的向量,w是所有元素均为0.5的向量:

## if start is c(0,0)    
start.is.00 <- glm.fit.truncated(x,y,family=binomial(), start=0)
start.is.00
w <- start.is.00$w
z <- start.is.00$z
## if start is c(0,0), the first displayed values are:    
qr.solve(cbind(1,x) * w, z*w)  
# > qr.solve(cbind(1,x) * w, z*w)  
#                   x 
# 0.3177530 0.9097521 

所以一切都很好,但是我们如何计算wz?在glm.fit.truncated()底部附近,我们看到

z <- (eta - offset)[good] + (y - mu)[good]/mu.eta.val[good]
w <- sqrt((weights[good] * mu.eta.val[good]^2)/variance(mu)[good])

查看用于计算zw的数量的输出值之间的以下比较:

cbind(y, start.is.null$mu, start.is.00$mu)
cbind(y, start.is.null$eta, start.is.00$eta)
cbind(start.is.null$var_mu, start.is.00$var_mu)
cbind(start.is.null$mu.eta.val, start.is.00$mu.eta.val)

请注意,start.is.00的矢量mu的值仅为0.5,因为eta设置为0,并且mu(eta)= 1 /(1 + exp(-0))= 0.5。 start.is.null将y = 1的那些设置为mu = 0.75(对应于eta = 1.098612),将y = 0的那些设置为mu = 0.25(对应于eta = -1.098612),因此var_mu = 0.75 * 0.25 = 0.1875。

但是,有趣的是,我改变了种子并重新运行了所有内容,对于y = 1,mu = 0.75,对于y = 0,mu = 0.25(因此其他数量保持不变)。也就是说,无论wz是什么,start = NULL都会产生相同的yx,因为如果y = 1和eta =则它们初始化eta = 1.098612(mu = 0.75)。如果y = 0,则-1.098612(mu = 0.25)。

因此,似乎没有为start = NULL设置截距系数和X系数的起始值,而是根据y值和x值将初始值赋予eta。从那里计算wz,然后与x一起发送到qr.solver。

要运行的代码之前上面的块:
