Optimizes the hyperparameters of a learner in a multi-criteria fashion. Allows for different optimization methods, such as grid search, evolutionary strategies, etc. You can select such an algorithm (and its settings) by passing a corresponding control object. For a complete list of implemented algorithms look at [TuneMultiCritControl].

tuneParamsMultiCrit(learner, task, resampling, measures, par.set, control,
  show.info = getMlrOption("show.info"), resample.fun = resample)

Arguments

learner

(Learner | character(1))
The learner. If you pass a string the learner will be created via makeLearner.

task

(Task)
The task.

resampling

([ResampleInstance] | [ResampleDesc])
Resampling strategy to evaluate points in hyperparameter space. If you pass a description, it is instantiated once at the beginning by default, so all points are evaluated on the same training/test sets. If you want to change that behavior, look at [TuneMultiCritControl].

measures

[list of [Measure])
Performance measures to optimize simultaneously.

par.set

([ParamHelpers::ParamSet])
Collection of parameters and their constraints for optimization. Dependent parameters with a `requires` field must use `quote` and not `expression` to define it.

control

([TuneMultiCritControl])
Control object for search method. Also selects the optimization algorithm for tuning.

show.info

(logical(1))
Print verbose output on console? Default is set via configureMlr.

resample.fun

([closure])
The function to use for resampling. Defaults to [resample] and should take the same arguments as, and return the same result type as, [resample].

Value

([TuneMultiCritResult]).
