test.idx <- (1:nrow(tdm.stack)) [- train.idx]

tdm.lab <- tdm.stack[, "targetlabel"]
tdm.stack.nl <- tdm.stack[, !colnames(tdm.stack) %in% "targetlabel"]

train <- tdm.stack[train.idx, ]
test <- tdm.stack[test.idx, ]

train$targetlabel <- as.factor(train$targetlabel)
label.rf <- randomForest(targetlabel ~ ., data = train, ntree = 5000, mtry = 15, importance = TRUE)

我正在尝试使用randomForest算法对文本文件进行多类分类。我得到的错误可能是因为最后一行或倒数第二行。

Error in eval(expr, envir, enclos) : object '∗' not found

tdm.stack包含名称为文档中找到的单词的列,其单元格值为其频率。最后一列包含类值。

我已经尝试了一切我无法弄清楚问题的方法。请帮忙。

答案 0 :(得分:0)

错误是由我的语料库中存在非ASCII字符引起的。 我将此行添加到我的cleanCorpus函数中以删除非ASCII字符

corpus.tmp <- tm_map(corpus.tmp, function(x) iconv(x, "latin1", "ASCII", sub=""))

这解决了这个问题。
