sdm_spec_boost_tree: Model specification for a Boosted Trees model for SDM
Description
This function returns a parsnip::model_spec for a Boosted Trees model to be
used as a classifier of presences and absences in Species Distribution Model.
It uses the library xgboost to fit boosted trees; to use another library,
simply build the parsnip::model_spec directly.
parameters to be passed to parsnip::boost_tree() to customise
the model. See the help of that function for details.
tune
character defining the tuning strategy. Valid strategies are:
"sdm" chooses hyperparameters that are most important to tune for
an sdm (for boost_tree: 'mtry', 'trees', 'tree_depth', 'learn_rate',
'loss_reduction', and 'stop_iter')
"all" tunes all hyperparameters (for boost_tree: 'mtry', 'trees',
'tree_depth', 'learn_rate', 'loss_reduction', 'stop_iter','min_n' and
'sample_size')
"custom" passes the options from '...'
"none" does not tune any hyperparameter
