Section 1: Statlog (heart) dataset
We'll use the Statlog (heart) dataset for this section, a binary classification problem predicting the presence or absence of heart disease from 13 medical measurements. Begin by reading in the UCI dataset from a URL, ensuring that any nominal features encoded as numbers are recoded as factors in R. Create a tabular summary of the dataset and a correlation matrix for the numerical features. Include individual scatterplots for any highly correlated pairs of features. Build a logistic regression model to evaluate accuracy, identify significant predictors of heart disease, and comment on which nominal features significantly affect the likelihood of heart disease.
Loading and Preparing the Data
To start, we load the heart dataset from the UCI repository. The dataset is found via a URL and read into R. Since it does not include headers, we assign feature names manually:
```R
suppressMessages(suppressWarnings(library(tidyverse)))
heart
cnames
names(heart)
```
Next, we recode the nominal features using dplyr's function mutate and recode_factor:
```R
heart.recoded %
mutate(sex = recode_factor(sex, '0' = 'male', '1' = 'female'),
cpt = recode_factor(cpt, '1' = 'typical angina', '2' = 'atypical angina',
'3' = 'non-anginal pain', '4' = 'asymptomatic'),
fbs = recode_factor(fbs, '0' = 'TRUE', '1' = 'FALSE'),
rer = recode_factor(rer, '0' = 'normal', '1' = 'ST-T abnormal',
'2' = 'left ventricular hypertrophy'),
eia = recode_factor(eia, '1' = 'yes', '0' = 'no'),
slope = recode_factor(slope, '1' = 'up', '2' = 'flat', '3' = 'down'),
thal = recode_factor(thal, '3' = 'normal', '6' = 'fixed defect',
'7' = 'reversible defect'),
class = recode_factor(class, '1' = 'absence', '2' = 'presence'))
heart.recoded$class
```
Summary and Correlation Analysis
We create a summary table and a correlation matrix for the numerical features:
```R
summary(heart.recoded)
cor_matrix % select_if(is.numeric))
```
Logistic Regression Model
Next, we build a logistic regression model:
```R
heart.fit
summary(heart.fit)
```
We will check the accuracy of the model, by generating predicted probabilities and determining predicted classes:
```R
predicted.probs
predicted.classes 0.5, 'presence', 'absence')
accuracy
```
Feature Significance
Upon reviewing the significance of predictors, we note which features have significant coefficients and their implications regarding heart disease likelihood. For instance, being female, typical angina, and some structural abnormalities yield positive coefficients, implying increased likelihoods of heart disease.
Section 2: Auto dataset
In this section, we develop a model to predict whether a given car receives high or low gas mileage based on the Auto dataset. This section includes creating a binary variable, exploring associations graphically, splitting the dataset into training and test sets, and performing several classification techniques, including LDA, QDA, and logistic regression.
Creating Binary Variable
We create a binary variable based on the median mpg:
```R
library(ISLR)
data(Auto)
mpg.med
Auto % mutate(mpg01 = ifelse(mpg > mpg.med, 1, 0)) %>% select(-mpg)
```
Exploratory Data Analysis
We visualize the relationships using boxplots and scatterplots:
```R
ggpairs(Auto, aes(color = as.factor(mpg01)))
```
Modeling
After splitting the data into training and test sets, we perform Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA), Quadratic Discriminant Analysis (QDA), and logistic regression:
```R
library(MASS)
auto.dfs = list()
auto.dfs$train = sample_frac(Auto, 0.67)
auto.dfs$test = anti_join(Auto, auto.dfs$train, by = 'id')
lda.fit
lda.predictions
lda.error
```
Evaluating Test Errors
Each model's test error is calculated and compared:
```R
glm.fit
glm.probs
glm.classes 0.5, 1, 0)
glm.error
```
Conclusion
Analysis of the Statlog heart dataset reveals insights on factors influencing heart disease, while predictive models for the Auto dataset demonstrate varying effectiveness based on the method used. Future work could involve refining these models and exploring additional datasets to enhance predictive accuracy.
