Hi all, Although I sent the mail to Piotr, the author of FSelector, it should be better to ask here to let others know.

I'm a new R beginner, and trying to use R to do some machine learning related research. Here is the problem I found: I was trying to combine RWeka and FSelector, and do the forward feature selection with J48/C5.4 decision tree: Here is the code: #================== library(RWeka) library(FSelector) library(rpart) data(iris) evaluator <- function(subset) { p <- J48(as.simple.formula(subset, "Species"), data=iris) e <- evaluate_Weka_classifier(p) print(subset) print(e$details[1]) return(e$details[1]) } subset <- forward.search(names(iris)[-5], evaluator) ========================= I got this error, when I ran it: Error in paste(attributes, sep = "", collapse = " + ") : cannot coerce type 'closure' to vector of type 'character' Not sure if you can help me out, I was stuck by this for a whole day as a beginner.
