mlr_learners_classif.ranger: Ranger Classification Learner

Description

Random classification forest. Calls ranger::ranger() from package ranger.

Arguments

Custom mlr3 defaults

  • num.threads:

    • Actual default: NULL, triggering auto-detection of the number of CPUs.

    • Adjusted value: 1.

    • Reason for change: Conflicting with parallelization via future.

  • mtry:

    • This hyperparameter can alternatively be set via our hyperparameter mtry.ratio as mtry = max(ceiling(mtry.ratio * n_features), 1). Note that mtry and mtry.ratio are mutually exclusive.

Dictionary

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

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

Super classes

mlr3::Learner -> mlr3::LearnerClassif -> LearnerClassifRanger

Methods

Inherited methods

Method new()

Creates a new instance of this R6 class.

Usage

LearnerClassifRanger$new()

Method importance()

The importance scores are extracted from the model slot variable.importance. Parameter importance.mode must be set to "impurity", "impurity_corrected", or "permutation"

Usage

LearnerClassifRanger$importance()

Returns

Named numeric().

Method oob_error()

The out-of-bag error, extracted from model slot prediction.error.

Usage

LearnerClassifRanger$oob_error()

Returns

numeric(1).

Method clone()

The objects of this class are cloneable with this method.

Usage

LearnerClassifRanger$clone(deep = FALSE)

Arguments

deep

Whether to make a deep clone.
