Fit model on reduced blood-brain data

Now that you've reduced your dataset, you can fit a glm model to it using the train() function. This model will run faster than using the full dataset and will yield very similar predictive accuracy.

Furthermore, zero variance variables can cause problems with cross-validation (e.g. if one fold ends up with only a single unique value for that variable), so removing them prior to modeling means you are less likely to get errors during the fitting process.

bloodbrain_x, bloodbrain_y, remove, and bloodbrain_x_small are loaded in your workspace.

  • Fit a glm model using the train() function and the reduced blood-brain dataset you created in the previous exercise.
  • Print the result to the console.
