biglm-错误:$运算符对原子向量无效

标签: bigdata out-of-memory ff

我正在尝试在非常大的数据集(几百万行)上运行广义线性模型。但是,R似乎无法处理分析,因为我不断遇到内存分配错误(无法分配大小向量等)。

数据适合RAM,但似乎太大,无法估计复杂的模型。作为解决方案,我正在探索使用ff软件包将r的RAM中存储机制替换为磁盘上存储。

我已经成功(我认为)将数据卸载到了硬盘驱动器上,但是当我尝试估计glm(通过biglm软件包)时,出现以下错误:

Error: $ operator is invalid for atomic vectors

我不确定为什么在使用bigglm函数时出现此特定错误。当我在完整的数据集上运行glm时,它没有给我这个特定的错误,尽管r可能在内存不够用之前就耗尽了内存,无法触发“运算符无效”错误。

我在下面提供了示例数据集和代码。请注意,标准glm可以在此样本数据上正常运行。使用biglm时会出现问题。

如有任何疑问,请告诉我。

提前谢谢!

#Fit glm on data stored on hard-drive (note this model fails)
fit.big <- bigglm(y ~ factor(x1) + x2 + factor(group), data=ff, 
                  family="binomial")

您使用了错误的家庭论证。

library(ffbase)
library(biglm)
df <- data.frame("id" = factor(as.character(1:20)), "group" = factor(rep(seq(1:5), 4)), 
                 "x1" = factor(as.character(rep(c("a", "b", "c", "d"), 5))),
                 "x2" = rnorm(20, 50, 1), y = sample(0:1, 20, replace=T),
                 stringsAsFactors = FALSE)
d <- as.ffdf(df)
fit.big <- bigglm.ffdf(y ~ x1 + x2 , data = d, 
                       family = binomial(link = "logit"), chunksize = 3)
