other parameters

name

the name of the field to get

info

the specific field of information to set

Details

The name field can be one of the following:

• label: vector of labels to use as the target variable

• weight: to do a weight rescale

• init_score: initial score is the base prediction gpboost will boost from

• group: used for learning-to-rank tasks. An integer vector describing how to group rows together as ordered results from the same set of candidate results to be ranked. For example, if you have a 100-document dataset with group = c(10, 20, 40, 10, 10, 10), that means that you have 6 groups, where the first 10 records are in the first group, records 11-30 are in the second group, etc.

Value

the dataset you passed in

the dataset you passed in

Examples

data(agaricus.train, package = "gpboost")
train <- agaricus.train
dtrain <- gpb.Dataset(train$data, label = train$label)
gpb.Dataset.construct(dtrain)

labels <- gpboost::getinfo(dtrain, "label")
gpboost::setinfo(dtrain, "label", 1 - labels)

labels2 <- gpboost::getinfo(dtrain, "label")
stopifnot(all.equal(labels2, 1 - labels))
