mlr_fselectors_design_points {mlr3fselect}

Feature Selection with Design Points

Description

Feature selection using user-defined feature sets.

Details

The feature sets are evaluated in order as given.

The feature selection terminates itself when all feature sets are evaluated. It is not necessary to set a termination criterion.

Dictionary

This FSelector can be instantiated with the associated sugar function fs():

fs("design_points")

Parameters

batch_size

integer(1)
Maximum number of configurations to try in a batch.

design

data.table::data.table
Design points to try in search, one per row.
