mlr3 (version 0.10.0)

TaskSupervised: Supervised Task

Description

This is the abstract base class for task objects like TaskClassif and TaskRegr. It extends Task with methods to handle a target columns. Supervised tasks for probabilistic regression (including survival analysis) can be found in mlr3proba.

Method new()

Creates a new instance of this R6 class.

Usage

TaskSupervised$new(id, task_type, backend, target, extra_args = list())

Arguments

id

(character(1)) Identifier for the new instance.

task_type

(character(1)) Type of task, e.g. "regr" or "classif". Must be an element of mlr_reflections$task_types$type.

backend

(DataBackend) Either a DataBackend, or any object which is convertible to a DataBackend with as_data_backend(). E.g., a data.frame() will be converted to a DataBackendDataTable.

target

(character(1)) Name of the target column.

extra_args

(named list()) Named list of constructor arguments, required for converting task types via convert_task().

Method truth()

True response for specified row_ids. Format depends on the task type. Defaults to all rows with role "use".

Usage

TaskSupervised$truth(rows = NULL)

Arguments

rows

integer() Row indices.

Method clone()

The objects of this class are cloneable with this method.

Usage

TaskSupervised$clone(deep = FALSE)

Arguments

deep

Whether to make a deep clone.
