mlapi (version 0.1.1)

mlapiEstimation: Base abstract class for all classification/regression models

Description

Base class for all estimators. Defines minimal set of members and methods(with signatires) which have to be implemented in child classes.

Usage

mlapiEstimation

Format

R6Class object.

Methods

$fit(x, y, ...)

$predict(x, ...)

Makes predictions on new data (after model was trained)

Arguments

x

A matrix like object, should inherit from Matrix or matrix. Allowed classes should be defined in child classes.

y

target - usually vector, but also can be a matrix like object. Allowed classes should be defined in child classes.

...

additional parameters with default values
