Boosted trees with lightgbm

Description

train_lightgbm is a wrapper for lightgbm tree-based models where all of the model arguments are in the main function.

Usage

train_lightgbm(
  x,
  y,
  max_depth = -1,
  num_iterations = 100,
  learning_rate = 0.1,
  feature_fraction_bynode = 1,
  min_data_in_leaf = 20,
  min_gain_to_split = 0,
  bagging_fraction = 1,
  early_stopping_round = NULL,
  validation = 0,
  counts = TRUE,
  quiet = FALSE,
  ...
)

Arguments

x

A data frame or matrix of predictors

y

A vector (factor or numeric) or matrix (numeric) of outcome data.

max_depth

An integer for the maximum depth of the tree.

num_iterations

An integer for the number of boosting iterations.

learning_rate

A numeric value between zero and one to control the learning rate.

feature_fraction_bynode

Fraction of predictors that will be randomly sampled at each split.

min_data_in_leaf

A numeric value for the minimum sum of instances needed in a child to continue to split.

min_gain_to_split

A number for the minimum loss reduction required to make a further partition on a leaf node of the tree.

bagging_fraction

Subsampling proportion of rows. Setting this argument to a non-default value will also set bagging_freq = 1. See the Bagging section in ?details_boost_tree_lightgbm for more details.

early_stopping_round

Number of iterations without an improvement in the objective function occur before training should be halted.

validation

The proportion of the training data that are used for performance assessment and potential early stopping.

counts

A logical; should feature_fraction_bynode be interpreted as the number of predictors that will be randomly sampled at each split? TRUE indicates that mtry will be interpreted in its sense as a count, FALSE indicates that the argument will be interpreted in its sense as a proportion.

quiet

A logical; should logging by lightgbm::lgb.train() be muted?

...

Other options to pass to lightgbm::lgb.train(). Arguments will be correctly routed to the param argument, or as a main argument, depending on their name.

Details

This is an internal function, not meant to be directly called by the user.

Value

A fitted lightgbm.Model object.
