Which is the final model for a Boosted Regression Trees (GBM)?
You need to read the papers referenced in the Help file. Except in trivial cases, there are NO simple models that you can fit by hand. Like many machine learning algorithms. -- Bert On Sat, Jun 22, 2013 at 6:18 PM, Kristi Glover

Hi R User,
I was trying to find a final model in the following example by using the Boosted regression trees (GBM). The program gives the fitted values but I wanted to calculate the fitted value by hand to understand in depth. Would you give moe some hints on what is the final model for this example?
Thanks
KG

+ family = "bernoulli", tree.complexity = 5,
+ learning.rate = 0.01, bag.fraction = 0.5)
