Solving Classification problems in R
Do you mean supervised or unsupervised classification. If supervised, I have had great success using gradient boosted classification in package gbm. multinomial distribution will get you multiple classes and it will select relevant predictors by itself given the training data. Not sure about the customized cost functions Jean-Olivier Irisson ? Universit?

Dear all, I would like some advices on R packages to solve classification problems. I have tried to search among the Task views, but couldn't find anything. Can somebody recommend me some packages? Some of the features I am looking for: - deal with multiple classes - use customized cost functions - perform features/predictors selection Any hint would be greatly appreciated, thanks a lot in advance for the help! Cheers, Luca
