fitclinear

Fit linear classification model to high-dimensional data

fitclinear trains linear classification models for two-class (binary) learning with high-dimensional, full or sparse predictor data. Available linear classification models include regularized support vector machines (SVM) and logistic regression models. fitclinear minimizes the objective function using techniques that reduce computing time (e.g., stochastic gradient descent).

A high-dimensional data set includes many predictor variables. Although such a data set can consume a significant fraction of memory, it must fit in the MATLAB^® Workspace. For low- through medium-dimensional predictor data sets, see Alternatives for Lower-Dimensional Data.

To train a linear classification model for multiclass learning by combining SVM or logistic regression binary classifiers using error-correcting output codes, see fitcecoc.

Sintaxis

Mdl = fitclinear(X,Y)

Mdl = fitclinear(X,Y,Name,Value)

[Mdl,FitInfo] = fitclinear(___)

[Mdl,FitInfo,HyperparameterOptimizationResults] = fitclinear(___)

Descripción

Mdl = fitclinear(X,Y) returns a trained linear classification model object that contains the results of fitting a binary support vector machine to the predictors X and class labels Y.

Mdl = fitclinear(X,Y,Name,Value) returns a trained linear classification model with additional options specified by one or more Name,Value pair arguments. For example, you can specify that the columns of the predictor matrix correspond to observations, implement logistic regression, or specify to cross-validate. It is good practice to cross-validate using the Kfold Name,Value pair argument. The cross-validation results determine how well the model generalizes.

[Mdl,FitInfo] = fitclinear(___) also returns optimization details using any of the previous syntaxes. You cannot request FitInfo for cross-validated models.

[Mdl,FitInfo,HyperparameterOptimizationResults] = fitclinear(___) also returns hyperparameter optimization details when you pass an OptimizeHyperparameters name-value pair.

Mdl is a ClassificationLinear model. You can pass Mdl and the training or new data to loss to inspect the in-sample classification error. Or, you can pass Mdl and new predictor data to predict to predict class labels for new observations.

FitInfo is a structure array containing, among other things, the termination status (TerminationStatus) and how long the solver took to fit the model to the data (FitTime). It is good practice to use FitInfo to determine whether optimization-termination measurements are satisfactory. Because training time is small, you can try to retrain the model, but increase the number of passes through the data. This can improve measures like DeltaGradient.

Find Good Lasso Penalty Using Cross-Validation

To determine a good lasso-penalty strength for a linear classification model that uses a logistic regression learner, implement 5-fold cross-validation.

Load the NLP data set.

load nlpdata

X is a sparse matrix of predictor data, and Y is a categorical vector of class labels. There are more than two classes in the data.

The models should identify whether the word counts in a web page are from the Statistics and Machine Learning Toolbox™ documentation. So, identify the labels that correspond to the Statistics and Machine Learning Toolbox™ documentation web pages.

Ystats = Y == 'stats';

Create a set of 11 logarithmically-spaced regularization strengths from through .

Lambda = logspace(-6,-0.5,11);

Cross-validate the models. To increase execution speed, transpose the predictor data and specify that the observations are in columns. Estimate the coefficients using SpaRSA. Lower the tolerance on the gradient of the objective function to 1e-8.

  Properties, Methods

Mdl1 is a ClassificationLinear model object. fitclinear constructed Mdl1 by training on the first four folds. Because Lambda is a sequence of regularization strengths, you can think of Mdl1 as 11 models, one for each regularization strength in Lambda.

Estimate the cross-validated classification error.

ce = kfoldLoss(CVMdl);

Because there are 11 regularization strengths, ce is a 1-by-11 vector of classification error rates.

Higher values of Lambda lead to predictor variable sparsity, which is a good quality of a classifier. For each regularization strength, train a linear classification model using the entire data set and the same options as when you cross-validated the models. Determine the number of nonzero coefficients per model.

Mdl = fitclinear(X,Ystats,'ObservationsIn','columns',...
    'Learner','logistic','Solver','sparsa','Regularization','lasso',...
    'Lambda',Lambda,'GradientTolerance',1e-8);
numNZCoeff = sum(Mdl.Beta~=0);

In the same figure, plot the cross-validated, classification error rates and frequency of nonzero coefficients for each regularization strength. Plot all variables on the log scale.

figure;
[h,hL1,hL2] = plotyy(log10(Lambda),log10(ce),...
    log10(Lambda),log10(numNZCoeff)); 
hL1.Marker = 'o';
hL2.Marker = 'o';
ylabel(h(1),'log_{10} classification error')
ylabel(h(2),'log_{10} nonzero-coefficient frequency')
xlabel('log_{10} Lambda')
title('Test-Sample Statistics')
hold off

Choose the index of the regularization strength that balances predictor variable sparsity and low classification error. In this case, a value between to should suffice.

idxFinal = 7;

Select the model from Mdl with the chosen regularization strength.

MdlFinal = selectModels(Mdl,idxFinal);

MdlFinal is a ClassificationLinear model containing one regularization strength. To estimate labels for new observations, pass MdlFinal and the new data to predict.

Optimize Linear Classifier

This example shows how to minimize the cross-validation error in a linear classifier using fitclinear. The example uses the NLP data set.

Load the NLP data set.

load nlpdata

X is a sparse matrix of predictor data, and Y is a categorical vector of class labels. There are more than two classes in the data.

The models should identify whether the word counts in a web page are from the Statistics and Machine Learning Toolbox™ documentation. Identify the relevant labels.

X = X';
Ystats = Y == 'stats';

Optimize the classification using the 'auto' parameters.

For reproducibility, set the random seed and use the 'expected-improvement-plus' acquisition function.

Mdl = fitclinear(X,Ystats,'ObservationsIn','columns','Solver','sparsa',...
    'OptimizeHyperparameters','auto','HyperparameterOptimizationOptions',...

Argumentos de entrada

X — Predictor data

full matrix | sparse matrix

Predictor data, specified as an n-by-p full or sparse matrix.

The length of Y and the number of observations in X must be equal.

Nota

If you orient your predictor matrix so that observations correspond to columns and specify 'ObservationsIn','columns', then you might experience a significant reduction in optimization-execution time.

Tipos de datos: single | double

Y — Class labels

categorical array | character array | string array | logical vector | numeric vector | cell array of character vectors

Class labels to which the classification model is trained, specified as a categorical, character, or string array, logical or numeric vector, or cell array of character vectors.

• fitclinear only supports binary classification. Either Y must contain exactly two distinct classes, or you must specify two classes for training using the 'ClassNames' name-value pair argument. For multiclass learning, see fitcecoc.

• If Y is a character array, then each element must correspond to one row of the array.

• The length of Y and the number of observations in X must be equal.

• It is good practice to specify the class order using the ClassNames name-value pair argument.

Tipos de datos: char | string | cell | categorical | logical | single | double

Note

fitclinear removes missing observations, that is, observations with any of these characteristics:

• NaN, empty character vector (''), empty string (""), <missing>, and <undefined> elements in the response (Y or ValidationData{2})

• At least one NaN value in a predictor observation (row in X or ValidationData{1})

• NaN value or 0 weight (Weights or ValidationData{3})

For memory-usage economy, it is best practice to remove observations containing missing values from your training data manually before training.

Argumentos de par nombre-valor

Specify optional comma-separated pairs of Name,Value arguments. Name is the argument name and Value is the corresponding value. Name must appear inside quotes. You can specify several name and value pair arguments in any order as Name1,Value1,...,NameN,ValueN.

Ejemplo: 'ObservationsIn','columns','Learner','logistic','CrossVal','on' specifies that the columns of the predictor matrix corresponds to observations, to implement logistic regression, to implement 10-fold cross-validation.

Nota

You cannot use any cross-validation name-value pair argument along with the 'OptimizeHyperparameters' name-value pair argument. You can modify the cross-validation for 'OptimizeHyperparameters' only by using the 'HyperparameterOptimizationOptions' name-value pair argument.

Linear Classification Options

'Lambda' — Regularization term strength

'auto' (predeterminado) | nonnegative scalar | vector of nonnegative values

Regularization term strength, specified as the comma-separated pair consisting of 'Lambda' and 'auto', a nonnegative scalar, or a vector of nonnegative values.

• For 'auto', Lambda = 1/n.

  • If you specify a cross-validation, name-value pair argument (e.g., CrossVal), then n is the number of in-fold observations.

  • Otherwise, n is the training sample size.

• For a vector of nonnegative values, the software sequentially optimizes the objective function for each distinct value in Lambda in ascending order.

  • If Solver is 'sgd' or 'asgd' and Regularization is 'lasso', then the software does not use the previous coefficient estimates as a warm start for the next optimization iteration. Otherwise, the software uses warm starts.

  • If Regularization is 'lasso', then any coefficient estimate of 0 retains its value when the software optimizes using subsequent values in Lambda.

  Returns coefficient estimates for all optimization iterations.

Ejemplo: 'Lambda',10.^(-(10:-2:2))

Tipos de datos: char | string | double | single

'Learner' — Linear classification model type

'svm' (predeterminado) | 'logistic'

Linear classification model type, specified as the comma-separated pair consisting of 'Learner' and 'svm' or 'logistic'.

In this table, $$f\left(x\right)=x\beta +b.$$

• β is a vector of p coefficients.

• x is an observation from p predictor variables.

• b is the scalar bias.

Value	Algorithm	Response Range	Loss Function
'svm'	Support vector machine	y ∊ {–1,1}; 1 for the positive class and –1 otherwise	Hinge: $$\ell \left[y,f\left(x\right)\right]=\max \left[0,1-yf\left(x\right)\right]$$
'logistic'	Logistic regression	Same as 'svm'	Deviance (logistic): $$\ell \left[y,f\left(x\right)\right]=\log \left\{1+\exp \left[-yf\left(x\right)\right]\right\}$$

Ejemplo: 'Learner','logistic'

'ObservationsIn' — Predictor data observation dimension

'rows' (predeterminado) | 'columns'

Predictor data observation dimension, specified as the comma-separated pair consisting of 'ObservationsIn' and 'columns' or 'rows'.

Nota

If you orient your predictor matrix so that observations correspond to columns and specify 'ObservationsIn','columns', then you might experience a significant reduction in optimization-execution time.

'Regularization' — Complexity penalty type

'lasso' | 'ridge'

Complexity penalty type, specified as the comma-separated pair consisting of 'Regularization' and 'lasso' or 'ridge'.

The software composes the objective function for minimization from the sum of the average loss function (see Learner) and the regularization term in this table.

Value	Description
'lasso'	Lasso (L1) penalty: $$\lambda {\displaystyle \sum _{j=1}^p\left|{\beta }_j\right|}$$
'ridge'	Ridge (L2) penalty: $$\frac{\lambda }{2}{\displaystyle \sum _{j=1}^p{\beta }_j^2}$$

To specify the regularization term strength, which is λ in the expressions, use Lambda.

The software excludes the bias term (β₀) from the regularization penalty.

If Solver is 'sparsa', then the default value of Regularization is 'lasso'. Otherwise, the default is 'ridge'.

Sugerencia

• For predictor variable selection, specify 'lasso'.

• For optimization accuracy, specify 'ridge'.

Ejemplo: 'Regularization','lasso'

'Solver' — Objective function minimization technique

'sgd' | 'asgd' | 'dual' | 'bfgs' | 'lbfgs' | 'sparsa' | string array | cell array of character vectors

Objective function minimization technique, specified as the comma-separated pair consisting of 'Solver' and a character vector or string scalar, a string array, or a cell array of character vectors with values from this table.

Value	Description	Restrictions
'sgd'	Stochastic gradient descent (SGD) [5][3]
'asgd'	Average stochastic gradient descent (ASGD) [8]
'dual'	Dual SGD for SVM [2][7]	Regularization must be 'ridge' and Learner must be 'svm'.
'bfgs'	Broyden-Fletcher-Goldfarb-Shanno quasi-Newton algorithm (BFGS) [4]	Inefficient if X is very high-dimensional.
'lbfgs'	Limited-memory BFGS (LBFGS) [4]	Regularization must be 'ridge'.
'sparsa'	Sparse Reconstruction by Separable Approximation (SpaRSA) [6]	Regularization must be 'lasso'.

If you specify:

• A ridge penalty (see Regularization) and X contains 100 or fewer predictor variables, then the default solver is 'bfgs'.

• An SVM model (see Learner), a ridge penalty, and X contains more than 100 predictor variables, then the default solver is 'dual'.

• A lasso penalty and X contains 100 or fewer predictor variables, then the default solver is 'sparsa'.

Otherwise, the default solver is 'sgd'.

'Beta' — Initial linear coefficient estimates

zeros(p,1) (predeterminado) | numeric vector | numeric matrix

Initial linear coefficient estimates (β), specified as the comma-separated pair consisting of 'Beta' and a p-dimensional numeric vector or a p-by-L numeric matrix. p is the number of predictor variables in X and L is the number of regularization-strength values (for more details, see Lambda).

• If you specify a p-dimensional vector, then the software optimizes the objective function L times using this process.

  1. The software optimizes using Beta as the initial value and the minimum value of Lambda as the regularization strength.

  2. The software optimizes again using the resulting estimate from the previous optimization as a warm start, and the next smallest value in Lambda as the regularization strength.

  3. The software implements step 2 until it exhausts all values in Lambda.

• If you specify a p-by-L matrix, then the software optimizes the objective function L times. At iteration j, the software uses Beta(:,j) as the initial value and, after it sorts Lambda in ascending order, uses Lambda(j) as the regularization strength.

If you set 'Solver','dual', then the software ignores Beta.

'Bias' — Initial intercept estimate

numeric scalar | numeric vector

Initial intercept estimate (b), specified as the comma-separated pair consisting of 'Bias' and a numeric scalar or an L-dimensional numeric vector. L is the number of regularization-strength values (for more details, see Lambda).

• If you specify a scalar, then the software optimizes the objective function L times using this process.

  1. The software optimizes using Bias as the initial value and the minimum value of Lambda as the regularization strength.

  2. The uses the resulting estimate as a warm start to the next optimization iteration, and uses the next smallest value in Lambda as the regularization strength.

  3. The software implements step 2 until it exhausts all values in Lambda.

• If you specify an L-dimensional vector, then the software optimizes the objective function L times. At iteration j, the software uses Bias(j) as the initial value and, after it sorts Lambda in ascending order, uses Lambda(j) as the regularization strength.

• By default:

  • If Learner is 'logistic', then let g_j be 1 if Y(j) is the positive class, and -1 otherwise. Bias is the weighted average of the g for training or, for cross-validation, in-fold observations.

  • If Learner is 'svm', then Bias is 0.

'TruncationPeriod' — Number of mini-batches between lasso truncation runs

10 (predeterminado) | positive integer

Number of mini-batches between lasso truncation runs, specified as the comma-separated pair consisting of 'TruncationPeriod' and a positive integer.

• For SGD, $${\widehat{\beta }}_j$$ is the estimate of coefficient j after processing k mini-batches. $$u_t=k{\gamma }_t\lambda .$$ γ_t is the learning rate at iteration t. λ is the value of Lambda.

• For ASGD, $${\widehat{\beta }}_j$$ is the averaged estimate coefficient j after processing k mini-batches, $$u_t=k\lambda .$$

If Regularization is 'ridge', then the software ignores TruncationPeriod.

square matrix | structure array

Misclassification cost, specified as the comma-separated pair consisting of 'Cost' and a square matrix or structure.

That is, the rows correspond to the true class, and the columns correspond to the predicted class. To specify the class order for the corresponding rows and columns of cost, use the ClassNames name-value pair argument.

Hyperparameter Optimization

'OptimizeHyperparameters' — Parameters to optimize

'none' (predeterminado) | 'auto' | 'all' | string array or cell array of eligible parameter names | vector of optimizableVariable objects

Parameters to optimize, specified as the comma-separated pair consisting of 'OptimizeHyperparameters' and one of the following:

• 'none' — Do not optimize.

• 'auto' — Use {'Lambda','Learner'}.

• 'all' — Optimize all eligible parameters.

• String array or cell array of eligible parameter names.

• Vector of optimizableVariable objects, typically the output of hyperparameters.

The optimization attempts to minimize the cross-validation loss (error) for fitclinear by varying the parameters. For information about cross-validation loss (albeit in a different context), see Classification Loss. To control the cross-validation type and other aspects of the optimization, use the HyperparameterOptimizationOptions name-value pair.

Nota

'OptimizeHyperparameters' values override any values you set using other name-value pair arguments. For example, setting 'OptimizeHyperparameters' to 'auto' causes the 'auto' values to apply.

The eligible parameters for fitclinear are:

• Lambda — fitclinear searches among positive values, by default log-scaled in the range [1e-5/NumObservations,1e5/NumObservations].

• Learner — fitclinear searches among 'svm' and 'logistic'.

• Regularization — fitclinear searches among 'ridge' and 'lasso'.

Set nondefault parameters by passing a vector of optimizableVariable objects that have nondefault values. For example,

load fisheriris
params = hyperparameters('fitclinear',meas,species);
params(1).Range = [1e-4,1e6];

Pass params as the value of OptimizeHyperparameters.

By default, iterative display appears at the command line, and plots appear according to the number of hyperparameters in the optimization. For the optimization and plots, the objective function is log(1 + cross-validation loss) for regression and the misclassification rate for classification. To control the iterative display, set the Verbose field of the 'HyperparameterOptimizationOptions' name-value pair argument. To control the plots, set the ShowPlots field of the 'HyperparameterOptimizationOptions' name-value pair argument.

For an example, see Optimize Linear Classifier.

MaxTime	Time limit, specified as a positive real. The time limit is in seconds, as measured by tic and toc. Run time can exceed MaxTime because MaxTime does not interrupt function evaluations.	Inf
NumGridDivisions	For 'gridsearch', the number of values in each dimension. The value can be a vector of positive integers giving the number of values for each dimension, or a scalar that applies to all dimensions. This field is ignored for categorical variables.	10
ShowPlots	Logical value indicating whether to show plots. If true, this field plots the best objective function value against the iteration number. If there are one or two optimization parameters, and if Optimizer is 'bayesopt', then ShowPlots also plots a model of the objective function against the parameters.	true

Repartition	Logical value indicating whether to repartition the cross-validation at every iteration. If false, the optimizer uses a single partition for the optimization. true usually gives the most robust results because this setting takes partitioning noise into account. However, for good results, true requires at least twice as many function evaluations.	false

ClassificationLinear model object | ClassificationPartitionedLinear cross-validated model object

Trained linear classification model, returned as a ClassificationLinear model object or ClassificationPartitionedLinear cross-validated model object.

If you set any of the name-value pair arguments KFold, Holdout, CrossVal, or CVPartition, then Mdl is a ClassificationPartitionedLinear cross-validated model object. Otherwise, Mdl is a ClassificationLinear model object.

To reference properties of Mdl, use dot notation. For example, enter Mdl.Beta in the Command Window to display the vector or matrix of estimated coefficients.

Nota

Unlike other classification models, and for economical memory usage, ClassificationLinear and ClassificationPartitionedLinear model objects do not store the training data or training process details (for example, convergence history).

FitInfo — Optimization details

structure array

Optimization details, returned as a structure array.

Fields specify final values or name-value pair argument specifications, for example, Objective is the value of the objective function when optimization terminates. Rows of multidimensional fields correspond to values of Lambda and columns correspond to values of Solver.

This table describes some notable fields.

Field	Description
TerminationStatus	Reason for optimization termination Corresponds to a value in TerminationCode
FitTime	Elapsed, wall-clock time in seconds
History	A structure array of optimization information for each iteration. The field Solver stores solver types using integer coding. Integer Solver 1 SGD 2 ASGD 3 Dual SGD for SVM 4 LBFGS 5 BFGS 6 SpaRSA

To access fields, use dot notation. For example, to access the vector of objective function values for each iteration, enter FitInfo.History.Objective.

It is good practice to examine FitInfo to assess whether convergence is satisfactory.

HyperparameterOptimizationResults — Cross-validation optimization of hyperparameters

BayesianOptimization object | table of hyperparameters and associated values

Cross-validation optimization of hyperparameters, returned as a BayesianOptimization object or a table of hyperparameters and associated values. The output is nonempty when the value of 'OptimizeHyperparameters' is not 'none'. The output value depends on the Optimizer field value of the 'HyperparameterOptimizationOptions' name-value pair argument:

Value of Optimizer Field	Value of HyperparameterOptimizationResults
'bayesopt' (default)	Object of class BayesianOptimization
'gridsearch' or 'randomsearch'	Table of hyperparameters used, observed objective function values (cross-validation loss), and rank of observations from lowest (best) to highest (worst)

Warm Start

A warm start is initial estimates of the beta coefficients and bias term supplied to an optimization routine for quicker convergence.

Alternatives for Lower-Dimensional Data

High-dimensional linear classification and regression models minimize objective functions relatively quickly, but at the cost of some accuracy, the numeric-only predictor variables restriction, and the model must be linear with respect to the parameters. If your predictor data set is low- through medium-dimensional, or contains heterogeneous variables, then you should use the appropriate classification or regression fitting function. To help you decide which fitting function is appropriate for your low-dimensional data set, use this table.

Model to Fit	Function	Notable Algorithmic Differences
SVM	Binary classification: fitcsvm Multiclass classification: fitcecoc Regression: fitrsvm	Computes the Gram matrix of the predictor variables, which is convenient for nonlinear kernel transformations. Solves dual problem using SMO, ISDA, or L1 minimization via quadratic programming using quadprog.
Linear regression	Least-squares without regularization: fitlm Regularized least-squares using a lasso penalty: lasso Ridge regression: ridge or lasso	lasso implements cyclic coordinate descent.
Logistic regression	Logistic regression without regularization: fitglm. Regularized logistic regression using a lasso penalty: lassoglm	fitglm implements iteratively reweighted least squares. lassoglm implements cyclic coordinate descent.

Sugerencias

• It is a best practice to orient your predictor matrix so that observations correspond to columns and to specify 'ObservationsIn','columns'. As a result, you can experience a significant reduction in optimization-execution time.

• For better optimization accuracy if X is high-dimensional and Regularization is 'ridge', set any of these combinations for Solver:

  • 'sgd'

  • 'asgd'

  • 'dual' if Learner is 'svm'

  • {'sgd','lbfgs'}

  • {'asgd','lbfgs'}

  • {'dual','lbfgs'} if Learner is 'svm'

  Other combinations can result in poor optimization accuracy.

• For better optimization accuracy if X is moderate- through low-dimensional and Regularization is 'ridge', set Solver to 'bfgs'.

• If Regularization is 'lasso', set any of these combinations for Solver:

  • 'sgd'

  • 'asgd'

  • 'sparsa'

  • {'sgd','sparsa'}

  • {'asgd','sparsa'}

• When choosing between SGD and ASGD, consider that:

  • SGD takes less time per iteration, but requires more iterations to converge.

  • ASGD requires fewer iterations to converge, but takes more time per iteration.

• If X has few observations, but many predictor variables, then:

  • Specify 'PostFitBias',true.

  • For SGD or ASGD solvers, set PassLimit to a positive integer that is greater than 1, for example, 5 or 10. This setting often results in better accuracy.

• For SGD and ASGD solvers, BatchSize affects the rate of convergence.

  • If BatchSize is too small, then fitclinear achieves the minimum in many iterations, but computes the gradient per iteration quickly.

  • If BatchSize is too large, then fitclinear achieves the minimum in fewer iterations, but computes the gradient per iteration slowly.

• Large learning rates (see LearnRate) speed up convergence to the minimum, but can lead to divergence (that is, over-stepping the minimum). Small learning rates ensure convergence to the minimum, but can lead to slow termination.

• When using lasso penalties, experiment with various values of TruncationPeriod. For example, set TruncationPeriod to 1, 10, and then 100.

• For efficiency, fitclinear does not standardize predictor data. To standardize X, enter

  X = bsxfun(@rdivide,bsxfun(@minus,X,mean(X,2)),std(X,0,2));

  The code requires that you orient the predictors and observations as the rows and columns of X, respectively. Also, for memory-usage economy, the code replaces the original predictor data the standardized data.

• After training a model, you can generate C/C++ code that predicts labels for new data. Generating C/C++ code requires MATLAB Coder™ . For details, see Introduction to Code Generation.

Algoritmos

• If you specify ValidationData, then, during objective-function optimization:

  • fitclinear estimates the validation loss of ValidationData periodically using the current model, and tracks the minimal estimate.

  • When fitclinear estimates a validation loss, it compares the estimate to the minimal estimate.

  • When subsequent, validation loss estimates exceed the minimal estimate five times, fitclinear terminates optimization.

• If you specify ValidationData and to implement a cross-validation routine (CrossVal, CVPartition, Holdout, or KFold), then:

  1. fitclinear randomly partitions X and Y according to the cross-validation routine that you choose.

  2. fitclinear trains the model using the training-data partition. During objective-function optimization, fitclinear uses ValidationData as another possible way to terminate optimization (for details, see the previous bullet).

  3. Once fitclinear satisfies a stopping criterion, it constructs a trained model based on the optimized linear coefficients and intercept.

     1. If you implement k-fold cross-validation, and fitclinear has not exhausted all training-set folds, then fitclinear returns to Step 2 to train using the next training-set fold.

     2. Otherwise, fitclinear terminates training, and then returns the cross-validated model.

  4. You can determine the quality of the cross-validated model. For example:

     • To determine the validation loss using the holdout or out-of-fold data from step 1, pass the cross-validated model to kfoldLoss.

     • To predict observations on the holdout or out-of-fold data from step 1, pass the cross-validated model to kfoldPredict.

  • 'ObservationsIn' — Supports only 'rows'.

  • 'Lambda' — Can be 'auto' (default) or a scalar.

  • 'Learner'

  • 'Regularization' — Supports only 'ridge'.

  • 'Solver' — Supports only 'lbfgs'.

  • 'Cost'

  • 'Prior'

  • 'Weights' — Value must be a tall array.

  • 'HessianHistorySize'

  • 'BetaTolerance' — Default value is relaxed to 1e-3.

  • 'GradientTolerance' — Default value is relaxed to 1e-3.

  • 'IterationLimit' — Default value is relaxed to 20.

  • 'OptimizeHyperparameters' — Value of 'Regularization' parameter must be 'ridge'.

  • 'HyperparameterOptimizationOptions' — For cross-validation, tall optimization supports only 'Holdout' validation. For example, you can specify fitclinear(X,Y,'OptimizeHyperparameters','auto','HyperparameterOptimizationOptions',struct('Holdout',0.2)).

• For tall arrays, fitclinear implements LBFGS by distributing the calculation of the loss and gradient among different parts of the tall array at each iteration. Other solvers are not available for tall arrays.

  When initial values for Beta and Bias are not given, fitclinear refines the initial estimates of the parameters by fitting the model locally to parts of the data and combining the coefficients by averaging.
