Introduction Today’s post is going to center around the automatic k-means functionality of {healthyR.ai}. I am not going to get into what it is or how it works, but rather the function call itself and how it works and what it puts out. The funct...

Scope Hotstarting a learner resumes the training from an already fitted model. An example would be to train an already fit XGBoost model for an additional 500 boosting iterations. In mlr3, we call this process Hotstarting, where a learner has a...

Scope We continue working with the Hyperband optimization algorithm (Li et al. 2018). The previous post used the number of boosting iterations of an XGBoost model as the resource. However, Hyperband is not limited to machine learning algorithms that are trained iteratively. The resource can also be the number of features, ...

Scope Increasingly large data sets and search spaces make hyperparameter optimization a time-consuming task. Hyperband (Li et al. 2018) solves this by approximating the performance of a configuration on a simplified version of the problem such as a small subset of the training data, with just a few training epochs in ...

During the pandemic, the stock prices almost doubled, but their trends have recently declined. One of the reasons for that might be the interest rates. To examine this, we will take a consideration ARK Innovation ETF (ARKK), which is a long-term growth capital by investing mostly in tech companies. First, ...

This is the second of a series of three blog posts about using the {shinytest2} package to develop automated tests for shiny applications. In the posts we will cover the purpose of browser-drive...

As part of our Data for Good (D4G) initiative, we collaborated with the Institute of Dendrology of the Polish Academy of Sciences to build a Shiny application with an enhanced UI. This application – Future Forests – shows how different climate scenarios will affect European forests. It provides a sobering look ...
