Dear friends,
Hope you are all doing well. I am currently using R version 4.0.2 and
working with the nnet package.
My dataframe consists of three columns, FECHA which is the date, x, which
is a sequence from 1 to 159, and y, which is the number of covid cases (I
am also providing the dput for this data frame below).
I tried fitting a neural net model using the following code:
xnew = 1:159
Fit <- nnet(a$y ~ a$x, a, size = 5, maxit = 1000, lineout = T, decay =
0.001)
Finally, I attempted to generate predictions with the following code:
predictions <- predict(Fit, newdata = list(x = xnew), type = "raw")
But obtained extremely odd results:
As you can see, instead of obtaining numbers, more or less in the range of
the last observations of a$y, I end up getting a bunch of 1s, which
doesn?t make any sense (if anyone could help me understand what could be
causing this):
