f_auto: Select Function to Compute Preference Order

Description

Internal function to select a proper f_...() function to compute preference order depending on the types of the response variable and the predictors. The selection criteria is available as a data frame generated by f_auto_rules().

Usage

f_auto(df = NULL, response = NULL, predictors = NULL, quiet = FALSE)

Value

function name

Arguments

df

(required; data frame, tibble, or sf) A data frame with responses and predictors. Default: NULL.

response

(optional; character string or vector) Name/s of response variable/s in df. Used in target encoding when it names a numeric variable and there are categorical predictors, and to compute preference order. Default: NULL.

predictors

(optional; character vector) Names of the predictors to select from df. If omitted, all numeric columns in df are used instead. If argument response is not provided, non-numeric variables are ignored. Default: NULL

quiet

(optional; logical) If FALSE, messages generated during the execution of the function are printed to the console Default: FALSE
