Hi,

For a logit fit model, I divided my study population into 80% and 20%.

I used the 80% group for training and 10-fold cross validation.

For external validation of the optimized model, I used the Test set containing 20% case group and tabulated the results obtained from the Test set for model performance.

Now I want to use XGBoost with the same training and test sets.

Can I specify a fixed set of cases as a Test set in R without creating a random test set?

XGBoost has the famous mushroom dataset. Two groups are introduced here, agaricus.train and agaricus.test:

data(agaricus.train, package = 'xgboost') data(agaricus.test, package = 'xgboost') train
