## The direct application of this function is an advanced use that consists of using this 
# function directly and performing a search process in a feature space
## Classification problem

# Generates the filter evaluation function
filter_evaluator <- filterEvaluator('determinationCoefficient')

# Generates the search function with Breadth first
bfs_search <- breadthFirst()
# Performs the search process directly (parameters: dataset, target variable and evaluator)
bfs_search(iris, 'Species', filter_evaluator)
