Arguments

data

data frame

formula

formula

...

any other params for xgboost

n_folds

number of cross validation folds

as_flextable

if FALSE, returns a tibble

include_linear

if TRUE includes a regularized linear model

theme

make_flextable theme

seed

seed

mtry

# Randomly Selected Predictors; defaults to .75; (xgboost: colsample_bynode) (type: numeric, range 0 - 1) (or type: integer if count = TRUE)

trees

# Trees (xgboost: nrounds) (type: integer, default: 500L)

min_n

Minimal Node Size (xgboost: min_child_weight) (type: integer, default: 2L); [typical range: 2-10] Keep small value for highly imbalanced class data where leaf nodes can have smaller size groups. Otherwise increase size to prevent overfitting outliers.

tree_depth

Tree Depth (xgboost: max_depth) (type: integer, default: 7L); Typical values: 3-10

learn_rate

Learning Rate (xgboost: eta) (type: double, default: 0.05); Typical values: 0.01-0.3

loss_reduction

Minimum Loss Reduction (xgboost: gamma) (type: double, default: 1.0); range: 0 to Inf; typical value: 0 - 20 assuming low-mid tree depth

sample_size

Proportion Observations Sampled (xgboost: subsample) (type: double, default: .75); Typical values: 0.5 - 1

stop_iter

# Iterations Before Stopping (xgboost: early_stop) (type: integer, default: 15L) only enabled if validation set is provided

counts

if TRUE specify mtry as an integer number of cols. Default FALSE to specify mtry as fraction of cols from 0 to 1

penalty

linear regularization parameter

mixture

linear model parameter, combines l1 and l2 regularization

Value
