Friedman (1991) introduced several benchmark data sets create by simulation.One of these simulations used the following nonlinear equation to create data: \(y=10sin(\pi x_1 x_2)+20(x_3-0.5)^2+10x_4+5X_5+N(0,\sigma ^2)\)
where the x values are random variables uniformly distributed between 0, 1.The package mlbench contains a function called mlbench.friedman1 thatsimulates these data:
set.seed(200)
trainingData <- mlbench.friedman1(200, sd = 1)
## We convert the 'x' data from a matrix to a data frame
## One reason is that this will give the columns names.
trainingData$x <- data.frame(trainingData$x)
## Look at the data using
featurePlot(trainingData$x, trainingData$y)
## or other methods.
## This creates a list with a vector 'y' and a matrix
## of predictors 'x'. Also simulate a large test set to
## estimate the true error rate with good precision:
testData <- mlbench.friedman1(5000, sd = 1)
testData$x <- data.frame(testData$x)
Tune several models on these data. For example:
knnModel <- train(x = trainingData$x,
y = trainingData$y,
method = "knn",
preProc = c("center", "scale"),
tuneLength = 10)
knnModel

The most important predictor is ManufacturingProcess32. For the top ten most important variables, process variables account for seven, so we can say process variables dominate the list. Comparing to the top 10 predictors from the PLS model (we showed the list in question 6.3 before. https://rpubs.com/DaisyCai/Data624_HW7), the name of the predictor variables are similar except some minor changes of the order. For example, BiologicalMaterial06 is the 7th most important variable on the list of pls model, but it become the second most important variable when we use SVM model.
Explore the relationships between the top predictors and the response for the predictors that are unique to the optimal nonlinear regression model.Do these plots reveal intuition about the biological or process predictors and their relationship with yield?
I choose the top 5 most important variables to explore the relationship between predictors and response.

We can see from the table, as well as the plot, ManufacturingProcess13 and ManufacturingProcess36 have negative correlation with the response. ManufacturingProcess32 has the highest positive correlation with the response yield. In addition, we detect that ManufacturingProcess32 and ManufacturingProcess36 has a very high negative correlation, -0.78800943.
