LearnerKnn: LearnerKnn R6 class

In mlexperiments: Machine Learning Experiments

LearnerKnn R6 class

Description

This learner is a wrapper around class::knn() in order to perform a k-nearest neighbor classification.

Details

Optimization metric: classification error rate Can be used with

• MLTuneParameters

• MLCrossValidation

• MLNestedCV

Implemented methods:

• ⁠$fit⁠ To fit the model.

• ⁠$predict⁠ To predict new data with the model.

• ⁠$cross_validation⁠ To perform a grid search (hyperparameter optimization).

• ⁠$bayesian_scoring_function⁠ To perform a Bayesian hyperparameter optimization.

For the two hyperparameter optimization strategies ("grid" and "bayesian"), the parameter metric_optimization_higher_better of the learner is set to FALSE by default as the classification error rate (mlr3measures::ce()) is used as the optimization metric.
