mlr_learners_classif.glmer: Classification Linear Mixed Effect Learner

In mlr-org/mlr3extralearners: Extra Learners For mlr3

Classification Linear Mixed Effect Learner

Description

Generalized linear model with random effects. Calls lme4::glmer() from lme4.

Initial parameter values

• family - Is set to stats::binomial(link = "logit").

Formula

Although most mlr3 learners don't allow to specify the formula manually, and automatically set it by valling task$formula(), this learner allows to set the formula because it's core functionality depends it. This means that it might not always use all features that are available in the task. Be aware, that this can sometimes lead to unexpected error messages, because mlr3 checks the compatibility between the learner and the task on all available features.

Dictionary

This Learner can be instantiated via lrn():

lrn("classif.glmer")

Examples

# Define the Learner and set parameter values
learner = lrn("classif.glmer",
  formula = credit_risk ~ (1 | credit_history) + job + property + telephone + savings)

# Define a Task
task = tsk("german_credit")
task$select(c("credit_history", "job", "property", "telephone", "savings"))

# Train the learner
learner$train(task)

print(learner$model)
