Random Forest class probabilities in seperate raster layers - r

I'm using the randomForest package to classify a raster stack of different predictors. Classification works fine, but I also want to retrieve the class probabilities. With my code I only get a RasterLayer with the probability of the first class, but I'd like to get a RasterStack with the class probabilities for each class in one layer.
PRED_train$response <- as.factor(PRED_train$response)
rf <- randomForest(response~., data = PRED_train, na.action = na.omit, confusion = T)
pred_RF <- raster::predict(PRED,rf,)
beginCluster()
pred_RF <- clusterR(PRED, predict, args = list(rf,type="prob"))
endCluster()

The first place to look should be ?raster::predict; which has an example that shows how to do that. Here it is:
library(raster)
logo <- brick(system.file("external/rlogo.grd", package="raster"))
p <- matrix(c(48, 48, 48, 53, 50, 46, 54, 70, 84, 85, 74, 84, 95, 85,
66, 42, 26, 4, 19, 17, 7, 14, 26, 29, 39, 45, 51, 56, 46, 38, 31,
22, 34, 60, 70, 73, 63, 46, 43, 28), ncol=2)
a <- matrix(c(22, 33, 64, 85, 92, 94, 59, 27, 30, 64, 60, 33, 31, 9,
99, 67, 15, 5, 4, 30, 8, 37, 42, 27, 19, 69, 60, 73, 3, 5, 21,
37, 52, 70, 74, 9, 13, 4, 17, 47), ncol=2)
xy <- rbind(cbind(1, p), cbind(0, a))
v <- data.frame(cbind(pa=xy[,1], extract(logo, xy[,2:3])))
v$pa <- as.factor(v$pa)
library(randomForest)
rfmod <- randomForest(pa ~., data=v)
rp <- predict(logo, rfmod, type='prob', index=1:2)
spplot(rp)

Why will glm model converge but caret train version of the same model will not?

As far as I can tell, I have specified this simple GLM the same way using a basic glm function and the caret train function. However, the caret version will not converge. Is there something missing in how I am specifying the train model?
library(caret)
logo <- rast(system.file("ex/logo.tif", package="terra"))
names(logo) <- c("red", "green", "blue")
p <- matrix(c(48, 48, 48, 53, 50, 46, 54, 70, 84, 85, 74, 84, 95, 85,

22, 34, 60, 70, 73, 63, 46, 43, 28), ncol=2)
a <- matrix(c(22, 33, 64, 85, 92, 94, 59, 27, 30, 64, 60, 33, 31, 9,
99, 67, 15, 5, 4, 30, 8, 37, 42, 27, 19, 69, 60, 73, 3, 5, 21,
37, 52, 70, 74, 9, 13, 4, 17, 47), ncol=2)
xy <- rbind(cbind(1, p), cbind(0, a))
# extract predictor values for points
e <- terra::extract(logo, xy[,2:3])
# combine with response (excluding the ID column)
v <- data.frame(cbind(pa=xy[,1], e))
v$pa <- as.factor(v$pa)
#GLM model
model <- glm(formula=as.numeric(pa)~ red + blue + green , data=v)
#Train model
model2 <- train(pa ~ red + green + blue,
data=v,
method = "glm")
>Warning messages:
> 1: glm.fit: algorithm did not converge
> 2: glm.fit: fitted probabilities numerically 0 or 1 occurred
Compliments of #Ben Bolker in the comments:
The train model was using family="binomial" as the default because the response variable is 0 and 1. The train model works with family="gaussian".

Predict xgboost model onto raster stack yields error

I am using an xgboost model to predict onto a raster stack. I have successfully used the same approach with CART, xgb and Random Forest models:
library(raster)
# create a RasterStack or RasterBrick with with a set of predictor layers
logo <- brick(system.file("external/rlogo.grd", package="raster"))
names(logo)
# known presence and absence points
p <- matrix(c(48, 48, 48, 53, 50, 46, 54, 70, 84, 85, 74, 84, 95, 85,
66, 42, 26, 4, 19, 17, 7, 14, 26, 29, 39, 45, 51, 56, 46, 38, 31,
22, 34, 60, 70, 73, 63, 46, 43, 28), ncol=2)
a <- matrix(c(22, 33, 64, 85, 92, 94, 59, 27, 30, 64, 60, 33, 31, 9,
99, 67, 15, 5, 4, 30, 8, 37, 42, 27, 19, 69, 60, 73, 3, 5, 21,
37, 52, 70, 74, 9, 13, 4, 17, 47), ncol=2)
# extract values for points
xy <- rbind(cbind(1, p), cbind(0, a))
v <- data.frame(cbind(pa=xy[,1], extract(logo, xy[,2:3])))
xgb <- xgboost(data = data.matrix(subset(v, select = -c(pa))), label = v$pa,
nrounds = 5)
raster::predict(model = xgb, logo)
But with xgboost I get the following error:
Error in xgb.DMatrix(newdata, missing = missing) :
xgb.DMatrix does not support construction from list
The problem is that predict.xgb.Booster does not accept a data.frame for argument newdata (see ?predict.xgb.Booster). That is unexpected (all common predict.* methods take a data.frame), but we can work around it. I show how to do that below, using the "terra" package instead of the obsolete "raster" package (but the solution is exactly the same for either package).
The example data
library(terra)
library(xgboost)
logo <- rast(system.file("ex/logo.tif", package="terra"))
p <- matrix(c(48, 48, 48, 53, 50, 46, 54, 70, 84, 85, 74, 84, 95, 85,
66, 42, 26, 4, 19, 17, 7, 14, 26, 29, 39, 45, 51, 56, 46, 38, 31,
22, 34, 60, 70, 73, 63, 46, 43, 28), ncol=2)
a <- matrix(c(22, 33, 64, 85, 92, 94, 59, 27, 30, 64, 60, 33, 31, 9,
99, 67, 15, 5, 4, 30, 8, 37, 42, 27, 19, 69, 60, 73, 3, 5, 21,
37, 52, 70, 74, 9, 13, 4, 17, 47), ncol=2)
xy <- rbind(cbind(1, p), cbind(0, a))
v <- extract(logo, xy[,2:3])
xgb <- xgboost(data = data.matrix(v), label=xy[,1], nrounds = 5)
The work-around is to write a prediction function that first coerces the data.frame with "new data" to a matrix. We can use that function with predict<SpatRaster>
xgbpred <- function(model, data, ...) {
predict(model, newdata=as.matrix(data), ...)
}
p <- predict(logo, model=xgb, fun=xgbpred)
plot(p)

20), .Tsp = c(1, 4.36, 52), class = "ts")
I think the most straightforward approach would be to follow Rob Hyndman's approach (he is the author of many time series packages in R). For your data it would work as follows,
require(fma)
# Create a model with multiplicative errors (see https://www.otexts.org/fpp/7/7).
fit1 <- stlf(test2)
# Create a model with additive errors.
fit2 <- stlf(data, etsmodel = "ANN")
deviance <- 2 * c(logLik(fit1$model) - logLik(fit2$model))
df <- attributes(logLik(fit1$model))$df - attributes(logLik(fit2$model))$df
# P-value
1 - pchisq(deviance, df)
# [1] 1
Based on this analysis we find the p-value of 1 which would lead us to conclude there is no seasonality.
I quite like the stl() function provided in R. Try this minimal example:
# some random data
x <- rnorm(200)
# as a time series object
xt <- ts(x, frequency = 10)
# do the decomposition
xts <- stl(xt, s.window = "periodic")
# plot the results
plot(xts)
Now you can get an estimate of the 'seasonality' by comparing the variances.
vars <- apply(xts$time.series, 2, var)
vars['seasonal'] / sum(vars)
You now have the seasonal variance as a proportion of sum of variances after decomposition.
I highly recommend reading the original paper so that you understand whats happening under the hood here. Its very accessible and I like this method as it is quite intuitive.

predict with glmer where new data is a Raster Stack of fixed efefcts

I have constructed models in glmer and would like to predict these on a rasterStack representing the fixed effects in my model. my glmer model is in the form of:
m1<-glmer(Severity ~ x1 + x2 + x3 + (1 | Year) + (1 | Ecoregion), family=binomial( logit ))
As you can see, I have random effects which I don't have as spatial layer - for example 'year'. Therefore the problem is really predicting glmer on rasterStacks when you don't have the random effects data random effects layers. If I use it out of the box without adding my random effects I get an error.
m1.predict=predict(object=all.var, model=m1, type='response', progress="text", format="GTiff")
Error in predict.averaging(model, blockvals, ...) :
Your question is very brief, and does not indicated what, if any, trouble you have encountered. This seems to work 'out of the box', but perhaps not in your case. See ?raster::predict for options.
library(raster)
# example data. See ?raster::predict
logo <- brick(system.file("external/rlogo.grd", package="raster"))
p <- matrix(c(48, 48, 48, 53, 50, 46, 54, 70, 84, 85, 74, 84, 95, 85,
66, 42, 26, 4, 19, 17, 7, 14, 26, 29, 39, 45, 51, 56, 46, 38, 31,
22, 34, 60, 70, 73, 63, 46, 43, 28), ncol=2)
a <- matrix(c(22, 33, 64, 85, 92, 94, 59, 27, 30, 64, 60, 33, 31, 9,
99, 67, 15, 5, 4, 30, 8, 37, 42, 27, 19, 69, 60, 73, 3, 5, 21,
37, 52, 70, 74, 9, 13, 4, 17, 47), ncol=2)
xy <- rbind(cbind(1, p), cbind(0, a))
v <- data.frame(cbind(pa=xy[,1], extract(logo, xy[,2:3])))
v$Year <- sample(2000:2001, nrow(v), replace=TRUE)
library(lme4)
m <- lmer(pa ~ red + blue + (1 | Year), data=v)
# here adding Year as a constant, as it is not a variable (RasterLayer) in the RasterStack object
x <- predict(logo, m, const=(data.frame(Year=2000)))
If you don't have the random effects, just use re.form=~0 in your predict call to predict at the population level:
x <- predict(logo, m, re.form=~0)
works without complaint for me with #RobertH's example (although I don't know if correctly)

How to predict new raster using model generated by cforest

I use randomForest model to predict class memberships. 'x' consists of 10 classes that I use to train 'training_predictors' values extracted from a large rasterstack/brick. The specific line of codes is:
r_tree<-randomForest(x ~. , data=training_predictors, ...)
Then I run 'predict' using the model 'r_tree' that I apply to the rasterstack 'predictor_data', as follow:
predictions<-predict(predictor_data, r_tree, filename=outraster, fun=predict na.rm=TRUE, format="PCDISK", overwrite=TRUE, progress="text", type="response").
The output is a raster that I use as thematic map.
I would like to use the conditional inference trees mode 'cforest' instead of randomForest to achieve the same goals.
I understand that 'predict' can be used with cforest, yet, I have not been able to generate raster files, such as those with randomForest as illustrated above.
It should run fine, but you may need to add the argument OOB=TRUE, and identify factors if there are any.
Example data
p <- matrix(c(48, 48, 48, 53, 50, 46, 54, 70, 84, 85, 74, 84, 95, 85,
66, 42, 26, 4, 19, 17, 7, 14, 26, 29, 39, 45, 51, 56, 46, 38, 31,
22, 34, 60, 70, 73, 63, 46, 43, 28), ncol=2)
a <- matrix(c(22, 33, 64, 85, 92, 94, 59, 27, 30, 64, 60, 33, 31, 9,
99, 67, 15, 5, 4, 30, 8, 37, 42, 27, 19, 69, 60, 73, 3, 5, 21,
37, 52, 70, 74, 9, 13, 4, 17, 47), ncol=2)
# extract values for points
xy <- rbind(cbind(1, p), cbind(0, a))
v <- data.frame(cbind(xy[,1], extract(logo, xy[,2:3])))
colnames(v)[1] <- 'pa'
Basic model
library(party)
m1 <- cforest(pa~., control=cforest_unbiased(mtry=3), data=v)
pc1 <- predict(logo, m1, OOB=TRUE)
plot(pc1)
Model with factors
v$red <- as.factor(round(v$red/100))
logo$red <- round(logo[[1]]/100)
m2 <- cforest(pa~., control=cforest_unbiased(mtry=3), data=v)
f <- list(levels(v$red))
names(f) <- 'red'
pc2 <- predict(logo, m2, OOB=TRUE, factors=f)
plot(pc2)
By the way, this comes almost straight out of the help file of raster::predict
