mlr_learners_surv.priority_lasso: Survival Priority Lasso Learner

In mlr-org/mlr3extralearners: Extra Learners For mlr3

Survival Priority Lasso Learner

Description

Patient outcome prediction based on multi-omics data taking practitioners’ preferences into account. Calls prioritylasso::prioritylasso() from prioritylasso. Many parameters for this survival learner are the same as mlr_learners_surv.cv_glmnet as prioritylasso() calls glmnet::cv.glmnet() during training phase. Note that prioritylasso() has ways to deal with block-wise missing data, but this feature is not supported currently.

Prediction types

This learner returns three prediction types:

1. lp: a vector containing the linear predictors (relative risk scores), where each score corresponds to a specific test observation. Calculated using prioritylasso::predict.prioritylasso().

2. crank: same as lp.

3. distr: a survival matrix in two dimensions, where observations are represented in rows and time points in columns. Calculated using mlr3proba::breslow() where the Breslow estimator is used for computing the baseline hazard.

Initial parameter values

• family is set to "cox" for the Cox survival objective and cannot be changed

• type.measure set to "deviance" (cross-validation measure)

Dictionary

This Learner can be instantiated via lrn():

lrn("surv.priority_lasso")
