mlr3learners (version 0.5.2)

mlr_learners_classif.nnet: Classification Neural Network Learner

Description

Single Layer Neural Network. Calls nnet::nnet.formula() from package nnet.

Note that modern neural networks with multiple layers are connected via package mlr3keras.

Dictionary

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

mlr_learners$get("classif.nnet")
lrn("classif.nnet")

Meta Information

• Task type: “classif”

• Predict Types: “prob”, “response”

Custom mlr3 defaults

• size:

  • Adjusted default: 3L.

  • Reason for change: no default in nnet().
