mlr_learners_surv.aorsf: Accelerated Oblique Random Survival Forest Learner

In mlr-org/mlr3extralearners: Extra Learners For mlr3

Accelerated Oblique Random Survival Forest Learner

Description

Accelerated oblique random survival forest. Calls aorsf::orsf() from aorsf. Note that although the learner has the property "missing" and it can in principle deal with missing values, the behaviour has to be configured using the parameter na_action.

Dictionary

This Learner can be instantiated via the dictionary mlr_learners or with the associated sugar function lrn():

mlr_learners$get("surv.aorsf")
lrn("surv.aorsf")

Initial parameter values

• 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.
