mlr3pipelines (version 0.3.0)

mlr_pipeops_updatetarget: PipeOpUpdateTarget

Description

EXPERIMENTAL, API SUBJECT TO CHANGE

Handles target transformation operations that do not need explicit inversion. In case the new target is required during predict, creates a vector of NA. Works similar to PipeOpTargetTrafo and PipeOpTargetMutate, but forgoes the inversion step. In case target after the trafo is a factor, levels are saved to $state.

During prediction: Sets all target values to NA before calling the trafo again. In case target after the trafo is a factor, levels saved in the state are set during prediction.

As a special case when trafo is identity and new_target_name matches an existing column name of the data of the input Task, this column is set as the new target. Depending on drop_original_target the original target is then either dropped or added to the features.

Arguments

Format

Abstract R6Class inheriting from PipeOp.

Construction

PipeOpUpdateTarget$new(id, param_set = ParamSet$new(),
  param_vals = list(), packages = character(0))
  • id :: character(1) Identifier of resulting object. See $id slot of PipeOp.

  • param_vals :: named list List of hyperparameter settings, overwriting the hyperparameter settings given in param_set. The subclass should have its own param_vals parameter and pass it on to super$initialize(). Default list().

Parameters

The parameters are the parameters inherited from PipeOpTargetTrafo, as well as:

  • trafo :: function Transformation function for the target. Should only be a function of the target, i.e., taking a single argument. Default is identity. Note, that the data passed on to the target is a data.table consisting of all target column.

  • new_target_name :: character(1) Optionally give the transformed target a new name. By default the original name is used.

  • new_task_type :: character(1) Optionally a new task type can be set. Legal types are listed in mlr_reflections$task_types$type. #' drop_original_target :: logical(1) Whether to drop the original target column. Default: TRUE.

State

The $state is a list of class levels for each target after trafo. list() if none of the targets have levels.

Methods

Only methods inherited from PipeOp.
