Description

Information gain filter calling FSelectorRcpp::relief() in package FSelectorRcpp.

Super class

mlr3filters::Filter -> FilterRelief

Methods

Public methods

• FilterRelief$new()

• FilterRelief$clone()

Inherited methods

• mlr3filters::Filter$calculate()
• mlr3filters::Filter$format()
• mlr3filters::Filter$help()
• mlr3filters::Filter$print()

---

Method new()

Create a FilterRelief object.

Usage

FilterRelief$new()

---

Method clone()

The objects of this class are cloneable with this method.

Usage

FilterRelief$clone(deep = FALSE)

Arguments

deep

Whether to make a deep clone.

Note

This filter can handle missing values in the features. However, the resulting filter scores may be misleading or at least difficult to compare if some features have a large proportion of missing values.

If a feature has no non-missing observation, the resulting score will be (close to) 0.

  # Note: `filter.frac` is selected randomly and should be tuned.

  graph = po("filter", filter = flt("relief"), filter.frac = 0.5) %>>%
    po("learner", mlr3::lrn("classif.rpart"))

  graph$train(task)
