RemixAutoML (version 0.11.0)

AutoNLS: AutoNLS is a function for automatically building nls models

Description

This function will build models for 9 different nls models, along with a non-parametric monotonic regression and a polynomial regression. The models are evaluated, a winner is picked, and the predicted values are stored in your data table.

Usage

AutoNLS(data, y, x, monotonic = TRUE)

Arguments

data

Data is the data table you are building the modeling on

y

Y is the target variable name in quotes

x

X is the independent variable name in quotes

monotonic

This is a TRUE/FALSE indicator - choose TRUE if you want monotonic regression over polynomial regression

Value

A list containing "PredictionData" which is a data table with your original column replaced by the nls model predictions; "ModelName" the model name; "ModelObject" The winning model to later use; "EvaluationMetrics" Model metrics for models with ability to build.
