  • (classif|regr).FDboost (Boosted functional generalized additive models)

• Added preprocessing steps for feature extraction from functional data

  • extractFDAFourier (Fourier transform)
  • extractFDAWavelets (Wavelet features)
  • extractFDAFPCA (Principal components)
  • extractFDATsfeatures (Time-Series features from tsfeatures package)
  • extractFDADTWKernel (Dynamic Time-Warping Kernel)
  • extractFDAMultiResFeatures (Compute features at multiple resolutions)

• Fixed a bug where multiclass to binaryclass reduction techniques did not work with functional data.

• Several other minor bug fixes and code improvements

• Extended and clarified documentation for several fda components.

learners - general

• xgboost: added options ‘auto’, ‘approx’ and ‘gpu_hist’ to param tree_method (@albersonmiranda, #2701)
• getFeatureImportance() now returns a long data.frame with columns variable and importance. Beforehand, a wide data.frame was returned with each variable representing a column (@pat-s, #1755).

filters - general

• Allow a custom threholding function to be passed to filterFeatures and makeFilterWrapper (@annette987, #2686)
• Allow ensemble filters to include multiple base filters of the same type (@annette987, #2688)

filters - bugfixes

• Fixed incorrect ranking of ensemble filters. Thanks @annette987 (#2698)

mlr 2.16.0

package infrastructure

• There is now a reference grouping for all functions on the pkgdown site (https://mlr.mlr-org.com/reference/index.html)
• CI testing now only on Circle CI (previously Travis CI)

learners - general

• fixed a bug in classif.xgboost which prevented passing a watchlist for binary tasks. This was caused by a suboptimal internal label inversion approach. Thanks to @001ben for reporting (#32) (@mllg)
• update fda.usc learners to work with package version >=2.0
• update glmnet learners to upstream package version 3.0.0
• update xgboost learners to upstream version 0.90.2 (@pat-s & @be-marc, #2681)
• Updated ParamSet for learners classif.gbm and regr.gbm. Specifically, param shrinkage now defaults to 0.1 instead of 0.001. Also more choices for param distribution have been added. Internal parallelization by the package is now suppressed (param n.cores). (@pat-s, #2651)
• Update parameters for h2o.deeplearning learners (@albersonmiranda, #2668)

misc

• Add configureMlr() to .onLoad(), possibly fixing some edge cases (#2585) (@pat-s, #2637)

learners - bugfixes

• h2o.gbm learners were not running until wcol was passed somehow due to an internal bug. In addition, this bug caused another issue during prediction where the prediction data.frame was somehow formatted as a character rather a numeric. Thanks to @nagdevAmruthnath for bringing this up in #2630.

filters - general

• Bugfix: Allow method = "vh" for filter randomForestSRC_var.select and return informative error message for not supported values. Also argument conservative can now be passed. See #2646 and #2639 for more information (@pat-s, #2649)

• Bugfix: Allow method = "md" of filter randomForestSRC_var.select to set the value returned for features below its threshold to NA (Issue #2687)

• Bugfix: With the new praznik v7.0.0 release filter praznik_CMIM does no longer return a result for logical features. See https://gitlab.com/mbq/praznik/issues/19 for more information

mlr 2.15.0

Breaking

• Instead of a wide data.frame filter values are now returned in a long (tidy) tibble. This makes it easier to apply post-processing methods (like group_by(), etc) (@pat-s, #2456)
• benchmark() does not store the tuning results ($extract slot) anymore by default. If you want to keep this slot (e.g. for post tuning analysis), set keep.extract = TRUE. This change originated from the fact that the size of BenchmarkResult objects with extensive tuning got very large (~ GB) which can cause memory problems during runtime if multiple benchmark() calls are executed on HPCs.
• benchmark() does not store the created models ($models slot) anymore by default. The reason is the same as for the $extract slot above. Storing can be enabled using models = TRUE.

functions - general

• generateFeatureImportanceData() gains argument show.info which shows the name of the current feature being calculated, its index in the queue and the elapsed time for each feature (@pat-s, #26222)

learners - general

• classif.liquidSVM and regr.liquidSVM have been removed because liquidSVM has been removed from CRAN.
• fixed a bug that caused an incorrect aggregation of probabilities in some cases. The bug existed since quite some time and was exposed due to the change of data.tables default in rbindlist(). See #2578 for more information. (@mllg, #2579)
• regr.randomForest gains three new methods to estimate the standard error:
  • se.method = "jackknife"
  • se.method = "bootstrap"
  • se.method = "sd" See ?regr.randomForest for more details. regr.ranger relies on the functions provided by the package (“jackknife” and “infjackknife” (default)) (@jakob-r, #1784)
• regr.gbm now supports quantile distribution (@bthieurmel, #2603)
• classif.plsdaCaret now supports multiclass classification (@GegznaV, #2621)

functions - general

• getClassWeightParam() now also works for Wrapper* Models and ensemble models (@ja-thomas, #891)
• added getLearnerNote() to query the “Note” slot of a learner (@alona-sydorova, #2086)
• e1071::svm() now only uses the formula interface if factors are present. This change is supposed to prevent from “stack overflow” issues some users encountered when using large datasets. See #1738 for more information. (@mb706, #1740)

learners - new

• add learner cluster.MiniBatchKmeans from package ClusterR (@Prasiddhi, #2554)

function - general

• plotHyperParsEffect() now supports facet visualization of hyperparam effects for nested cv (@MasonGallo, #1653)
• fixed a bug that caused an incorrect aggregation of probabilities in some cases. The bug existed since quite some time and was exposed due to the change of data.tables default in rbindlist(). See #2578 for more information. (@mllg, #2579)
• fixed a bug in which options(on.learner.error) was not respected in benchmark(). This caused benchmark() to stop even if it should have continued including FailureModels in the result (@dagola, #1984)
• getClassWeightParam() now also works for Wrapper* Models and ensemble models (@ja-thomas, #891)
• added getLearnerNote() to query the “Note” slot of a learner (@alona-sydorova, #2086)

filters - general

• Filter praznik_mrmr also supports regr and surv tasks
• plotFilterValues() got a bit “smarter” and easier now regarding the ordering of multiple facets. (@pat-s, #2456)
• filterFeatures(), generateFilterValuesData() and makeFilterWrapper() gained new examples. (@pat-s, #2456)

filters - new

• Ensemble features are now supported. These filters combine multiple single filters to create a final ranking based on certain statistical operations. All new filters are listed in a dedicated section “ensemble filters” in the tutorial. Tuning of simple features is not supported yet because of a missing feature in ParamHelpers. (@pat-s, #2456)

mlr 2.14.0

general

• add option to use fully predefined indices in resampling (makeResampleDesc(fixed = TRUE)) (@pat-s, #2412).
• Task help pages are now split into separate ones, e.g. RegrTask, ClassifTask (@pat-s, #2564)

functions - new

• deleteCacheDir(): Clear the default mlr cache directory (@pat-s, #2463)
• getCacheDir(): Return the default mlr cache directory (@pat-s, #2463)

functions - general

• getResamplingIndices(inner = TRUE) now correctly returns the inner indices (before inner indices referred to the subset of the respective outer level train set) (@pat-s, #2413).

filter - general

• Caching is now used when generating filter values. This means that filter values are only computed once for a specific setting and the stored cache is used in subsequent iterations. This change inherits a significant speed-up when tuning fw.perc, fw.abs or fw.threshold. It can be triggered with the new cache argument in makeFilterWrapper() or filterFeatures() (@pat-s, #2463).

filter - new

• praznik_JMI
• praznik_DISR
• praznik_JMIM
• praznik_MIM
• praznik_NJMIM
• praznik_MRMR
• praznik_CMIM
• FSelectorRcpp_gain.ratio
• FSelectorRcpp_information.gain
• FSelectorRcpp_symuncert

Additionally, filter names have been harmonized using the following scheme: _. Exeptions are filters included in base R packages. In this case, the package name is omitted.

filter - general

• Added filters FSelectorRcpp_gain.ratio, FSelectorRcpp_information.gain and FSelectorRcpp_symmetrical.uncertainty from package FSelectorRcpp. These filters are ~ 100 times faster than the implementation of the FSelector pkg. Please note that both implementations do things slightly different internally and the FSelectorRcpp methods should not be seen as direct replacement for the FSelector pkg.

• filter names have been harmonized using the following scheme: _. (@pat-s, #2533)

  • information.gain -> FSelector_information.gain
  • gain.ratio -> FSelector_gain.ratio
  • symmetrical.uncertainty -> FSelector_symmetrical.uncertainty
  • chi.squared -> FSelector_chi.squared

• h2o learners now support getting feature importance (@markusdumke, #2434)

learners - fixes

• In some cases the optimized hyperparameters were not applied in the performance level of a nested CV (@berndbischl, #2479)

featSel - general

• The FeatSelResult object now contains an additional slot x.bit.names that stores the optimal bits
• The slot x now always contains the real feature names and not the bit.names
• This fixes a bug and makes makeFeatSelWrapper usable with custom bit.names.
• Fixed a bug due to which sffs crashed in some cases (@bmihaljevic, #2486)

• Tasks are now subsetted in the “train” function and the factor levels (for classification tasks) based on this subset. This means that the factor level distribution is not necessarily the same as for the entire task, and that the task descriptions of models in resampling reflect the respective subset, while the task description of resample predictions reflect the entire task and not necessarily the task of any individual model.
• Added support for growing and fixed window cross-validation for forecasting through new resample methods “GrowingWindowCV” and “FixedWindowCV”.

functions - general

• regr.randomForest: refactored se-estimation code, improved docs and default is now se.method = “jackknife”.
• regr.xgboost, classif.xgboost: removed “factors” property as these learners do not handle categorical features – factors are silently converted to integers internally, which may misinterpret the structure of the data
• glmnet: control parameters are reset to factory settings before applying custom settings and training and set back to factory afterwards

learners - removed

• tuneParams: tuning with irace is now also parallelized, i.e., different learner configs are evaluated in parallel.
• benchmark: mini fix, arg ‘learners’ now also accepts class strings
• object printers: some mlr printers show head previews of data.frames. these now also print info on the total nr of rows and cols and are less confusing

• new “?mlrFamilies” manual page which lists all families and the functions belonging to it
• we are converging on data.table as a standard internally, this should not change any API behavior on the outside, though
• generateHyperParsEffectData and plotHyperParsEffect now support more than 2 hyperparameters
• linear.correlation, rank.correlation, anova.test: use Rfast instead of FSelector/custom implementation now, performance should be much better

mlr 2.6:

• cluster.kmeans: added support for fuzzy clustering (property “prob”)
• regr.lm: removed some erroneous param settings
• regr.glmnet: added ‘family’ param and allowed ‘gaussian’, but also ‘poisson’

mlr 2.5:

• fixed a bug that caused performance() to return incorrect values with ResamplePredictions
• we have (somewhat experimental) support for multilabel classification. so we now have a task, a new baselearner (rFerns), and a generic reduction-to-binary algorithm (MultilabelWrapper)
• tuning: added ‘budget’ parameter in makeTuneControl* (single-objective) and makeTuneMultiCritControl* (multi-objective scenarios), allowing to define a maximum “number of evaluations” budget for tuning algorithms
• tuning: added ‘budget’ parameter in makeTuneMultiCritControl*, allowing to define a maximum “number of evaluations” budget for tuning algorithms in the single-objective case
• makeTuneControlGenSA: optimized function will be considered non-smooth per default (change via … args)
• classif.svm, regr.svm: added ‘scale’ param

• plots now use long names for measures where possible
• there was a nasty bug in measure “mcc”. fixed and unit tested. and apologies.
• removed getTaskFormulaAsString and improved getTaskFormula so the former is not needed anymore
• aggregations now have a ‘name’ property, which is a long name
• generateLearningCurveData and generateThreshVsPerfData now append the aggregation id to the output column name if the measure ids are the same
• plotLearningCurve, plotLearningCurveGGVIS, plotThreshVsPerf, plotThreshVsPerfGGVIS now have an argument ‘pretty.names’ which plots the ‘name’ element of the measures instead of the ‘id’.
• makeCustomResampledMeasure now has arguments ‘measure.id’ and ‘aggregation.id’ instead of only ‘id’ which corresponded to the measure. Also, ‘name’ and note (corresponding to the measure) as well as ‘aggregation.name’ have been added.
• makeCostMeasure now has arguments ‘name’ and ‘id’.
• classification learner now can have a property ‘class.weights’, supported by ‘class.weights.param’. The latter indicates which of the parameters provides that class weights information to the learner.
• class weights integrated in the learner will be used as default for ‘wcw.param’ in ‘makeWeightedClassesWrapper’
• listLearners with create = FALSE does not load packages anymore and is therefore faster and more reliable; it also supports the additional parameter check.packages now that will check whether required packages are installed without loading them

• Learner properties are now implemented object oriented as a state of a Learner. Only RLearners have the properties stored in a slot. For each class the getter can be overwritten.
• The hill climbing algorithm for stacking (Caruana 04) is implemented as method ‘hill.climb’ in ‘makeStackedLearner’ to select models from base learners, which is equivalent to weighted average.
• The model compression algorithm for stacking (Caruana 06) is implemented as method ‘compress’ in ‘makeStackedLearner’ to first select models from base learners and then mimic the behaviour with a super learner. The default super learner is neural network.
• relativeOverfitting provides a way to estimate how much a model overfits to the training data according to a measure.
• restructured the LiblineaR learners to a more convenient format. These old ones were removed: classif.LiblineaRBinary, classif.LiblineaRLogReg, classif.LiblineaRMultiClass. For the new ones, see below.

• getTaskFormula / getTaskFormulaAsString have new argument ‘explicit.features’
• getTaskData now has recodeY = “drop.levels” which drops empty factor levels
• option fix.factors in makeLearner was renamed to fix.factors.prediction for clarity

• ‘resample’ and ‘benchmark’ got the argument keep.pred, setting it to FALSE allows to discard the prediction objects to save memory
• we had to slightly change how the mem usage is reported in tuning and feature selection See TuneControl and FeatSelControl where it is documented what is done now.
• tuneIrace: allows to set the precision / digits within irace (using the argument ‘digits’ in makeTuneControlIrace); default is maximum precision

• externalized measure functions to be used on vectors.
• some minor bug fixes
• required basic learner packages are not loaded into the global namespace anymore, requireNamespace is used internally instead. this ensures less name clashes and name shadowing
• resample passes dot arguments to the learner hyperpars
• new option “on.par.out.of.bounds” to disable out-of-bound checks for model parameters
• measures were slightly internally changed. they expose more properties (check ?Measure) and some now unnecessary object slots were removed
• classif.lda and classif.qda now have hyperpar “predict.method”
• filterFeatures and makeFilterWrapper gain an argument for mandatory features
• plotLearnerPrediction has new option “err.size”
• classif.plsDA and cluster.DBscan for now removed because of problems with the underlying learning algorithm

mlr 2.2:

• The web tutorial was MUCH improved!
• more example tasks and data sets
• Learners and tasks now support ordered factors as features. The task description knows whether ordered factors are present and it is checked whether the learner supports such a feature. We have set this property ‘ordered’ very conservatively, so very few learners have it, where we are sure ordered inputs are handled correctly during training. If you know of more models that support this, please inform us.
• basic R learners now have new slots: name (a descriptive name of the algorithm), short.name (abbreviation that can be used in plots and tables) and note (notes regarding slight changes for the mlr integration of the learner and such).
• makeLearner now supports some options regarding learner error handling and output which could before only be set globally via configureMlr
• Additional arguments for imputation functions to allow a more fine-grain control of dummy column creation
• imputeMin and imputeMax now subtract or add a multiple of the range of the data from the minimum or to the maximum, respectively.
• cluster methods now have property ‘prob’ when they support fuzzy cluster membership probabilities, and also then support predict.type = ‘prob’. Everything basically works the same as for posterior probabilities in classif.* methods.
• predict preserves the rownames of the input in its output
• fixed a bug in createDummyFeatures that caused an error when the data contained missing values.
• plotLearnerPrediction works for clustering and allows greyscale plots (for printing or articles)
• the whole object-oriented structure behind feature filtering was much improved. Smaller changes in the signature of makeFilterWrapper and filterFeatures have become necessary.
• fixed a bug in filter methods of the FSelector package that caused an error when variable names contained accented letters
• filterFeatures can now be also applied to the result of getFilterValues
• We dropped the data.frame version of some preprocessing operations like mergeFactorLevelsBySize, joinClassLevels and removeConstantFeatures for consistency. These now always require tasks as input.
• We support a pretty generic framework for stacking / super-learning now, see makeStackedLearner
• imbalancy correction + smote: ** fix a bug in “smote” when only factor features are present ** change to oversampling: sample new observations only (with replacement) ** extension to smote algorithm (sampling): minority class observations in binary classification are either chosen via sampling or alternatively, each minority class observation is used an equal number of times
• made the getters for BenchmarkResult more consistent. These are now: getBMRTaskIds, getBMRLearnerIds, getBMRPredictions, getBMRPerformances, getBMRAggrPerformances getBMRTuneResults, getFeatSelResults, getBMRFilteredFeatures The following methods do not work for BenchmarkResult anymore: getTuneResult, getFeatSelResult
• Removed getFilterResult, because it does the same as getFilteredFeatures

• improve makeWeightedClassesWrapper: Hyperparams for class weighting are now supported, too.
• removed fix.factors option from randomForest, but added it in general to makeLearner, so it now works for all learners. Helps when feature factor levels where dropped in newdata prediction data.frames
• more consistent results for tuning algorithms and parameters with “trafos” : we always return the optimal settings on the transformed scale, but in the opt.path in the original scale.
• fix a bug when feature filtering resulted in a NoFeatureModel

• show.info is now an option in configureMlr
• learners now support taggable properties that can be queried and changed. also see below.
• listLearners(forTask) was unified
• removed tuning via R’ optim method (makeTuneControlOptim), as the optimizers in there really make no sense for tuning
• Grid search was improved so one does not have to discretize parameters manually anymore (although this is still possible). Instead one now passes a ‘resolution’ argument. Internally we now use ParamHelpers::generateGridDesign for this.
• toy tasks were added for convenient usage: iris.task, sonar.task, bh.task they also also have corresponding resampling instances, so you directly start working, e.g., iris.rin
