In datarobot: 'DataRobot' Predictive Modeling API

Adds a new model of type specified by blueprint to a DataRobot project

Description

This function requests the creation of a new model in the DataRobot modeling project defined by the project parameter. The function also allows the user to specify alternatives to the project default for featurelist, samplePct, and scoringType. This function returns an integer modelJobId value, which can be used by the GetModelFromJobId function to return the full model object.

Usage

RequestNewModel(
  project,
  blueprint,
  featurelist = NULL,
  samplePct = NULL,
  trainingRowCount = NULL,
  scoringType = NULL,
  monotonicIncreasingFeaturelistId = NULL,
  monotonicDecreasingFeaturelistId = NULL
)

Arguments

project	character. Either (1) a character string giving the unique alphanumeric identifier for the project, or (2) a list containing the element projectId with this identifier.
blueprint	list. A list with at least the following two elements: blueprintId and projectId. Note that the individual elements of the list returned by ListBlueprints are admissible values for this parameter.
featurelist	list. A list that contains the element featurelistId that specifies the featurelist to be used in building the model; if not specified (i.e., for the default value NULL), the project default (Informative Features) is used.
samplePct	numeric. The percentage of the training dataset to be used in building the new model; if not specified (i.e., for the default value NULL), the maxTrainPct value for the project is used. Value should be between 0 and 100.
trainingRowCount	integer. The number of rows to use to train the requested model.
scoringType	character. String specifying the scoring type; default is validation set scoring, but cross-validation averaging is also possible.
monotonicIncreasingFeaturelistId	character. Optional. The id of the featurelist that defines the set of features with a monotonically increasing relationship to the target. If NULL (default), the default for the project will be used (if any). Note that currently there is no way to create a model without monotonic constraints if there was a project-level default set. If desired, the featurelist itself can also be passed as this parameter.
monotonicDecreasingFeaturelistId	character. Optional. The id of the featurelist that defines the set of features with a monotonically decreasing relationship to the target. If NULL, the default for the project will be used (if any). If empty (i.e., ""), no such constraints are enforced. Also, if desired, the featurelist itself can be passed as this parameter.

Details

Motivation for this function is the fact that some models - e.g., very complex machine learning models fit to large datasets - may take a long time to complete. Splitting the model creation request from model retrieval in these cases allows the user to perform other interactive R session tasks between the time the model creation/update request is made and the time the final model is available.

Either 'sample_pct' or 'training_row_count' can be used to specify the amount of data to use, but not both. If neither are specified, a default of the maximum amount of data that can safely be used to train any blueprint without going into the validation data will be selected. In smart-sampled projects, 'samplePct' and 'trainingRowCount' are assumed to be in terms of rows of the minority class.

Note : For datetime partitioned projects, use RequestNewDatetimeModel instead

Value

An integer value that can be used as the modelJobId parameter in subsequent calls to the GetModelFromJobId function.
