mlr3superlearner

Lifecycle: experimental R-CMD-check

An modern implementation of the Super Learner prediction algorithm using the mlr3 framework, and an adherence to the recommendations of Phillips, van der Laan, Lee, and Gruber (2023)

Installation

You can install the development version of mlr3superlearner from GitHub with:

# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("nt-williams/mlr3superlearner")

Example

library(mlr3superlearner)
#> Loading required package: mlr3learners
#> Loading required package: mlr3
library(mlr3extralearners)

# No hyperparameters
mlr3superlearner(mtcars, "mpg", c("mean", "glm", "svm", "ranger"), "continuous")
#> ℹ n effective = 32. Setting cross-validation folds as 20
