split_gazepoint_ml_data: Create a deterministic group-aware Gazepoint holdout split

In gp3ml: Governance-First Predictive Modelling for 'Gazepoint' Research

Create a deterministic group-aware Gazepoint holdout split

Description

Creates analysis and assessment partitions that preserve the grouping unit implied by an explicit generalization target.

Usage

split_gazepoint_ml_data(
  data,
  outcome,
  predictors,
  feature_manifest,
  generalization_target,
  participant_id = NULL,
  trial_id = NULL,
  stimulus_id = NULL,
  assessment_prop = 0.2,
  seed = 1L,
  source_row_id = ".gp3ml_source_row"
)

Arguments

data	Data frame containing the outcome, predictors, and grouping identifiers.
outcome	Name of the outcome column.
predictors	Character vector of predictor-column names.
feature_manifest	Feature manifest containing the predictors.
generalization_target	Declared predictive-generalization target.
participant_id	Optional participant-identifier column.
trial_id	Optional trial-identifier column.
stimulus_id	Optional stimulus-identifier column.
assessment_prop	Requested assessment proportion.
seed	Integer random seed.
source_row_id	Name of the source-row identifier added to the returned partitions.

Details

For simultaneous participant and stimulus generalization, cross-block rows are placed in the excluded partition.

This function does not perform preprocessing, feature selection, resampling, or model fitting.

Value

An object of class gazepoint_ml_split.
