mlr_learners_regr.featureless {mlr3}

Featureless Regression Learner

Description

A simple LearnerRegr which only analyzes the response during train, ignoring all features. If hyperparameter robust is FALSE (default), constantly predicts mean(y) as response and sd(y) as standard error. If robust is TRUE, median() and mad() are used instead of mean() and sd(), respectively.

Dictionary

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

mlr_learners$get("regr.featureless")
lrn("regr.featureless")
