Custom mlr3 parameters

• mtry: This hyperparameter can alternatively be set via the added hyperparameter mtry.ratio as mtry = max(ceiling(mtry.ratio * n_features), 1). Note that mtry and mtry.ratio are mutually exclusive.

• sampsize: This hyperparameter can alternatively be set via the added hyperparameter sampsize.ratio as sampsize = max(ceiling(sampsize.ratio * n_obs), 1). Note that sampsize and sampsize.ratio are mutually exclusive.

• cores: This value is set as the option rf.cores during training and is set to 1 by default.

Examples

# Define the Learner
learner = mlr3::lrn("classif.rfsrc", importance = "TRUE")
print(learner)

# Define a Task
task = mlr3::tsk("sonar")
# Create train and test set
ids = mlr3::partition(task)

# Train the learner on the training ids
learner$train(task, row_ids = ids$train)

print(learner$model)
print(learner$importance())

# Make predictions for the test rows
predictions = learner$predict(task, row_ids = ids$test)

# Score the predictions
predictions$score()
