Use classifier chains method (CC) to create a multilabel learner.

Source: R/MultilabelClassifierChainsWrapper.R
makeMultilabelClassifierChainsWrapper.Rd

Every learner which is implemented in mlr and which supports binary classification can be converted to a wrapped classifier chains multilabel learner. CC trains a binary classifier for each label following a given order. In training phase, the feature space of each classifier is extended with true label information of all previous labels in the chain. During the prediction phase, when true labels are not available, they are replaced by predicted labels.

Models can easily be accessed via getLearnerModel.

Usage

makeMultilabelClassifierChainsWrapper(learner, order = NULL)

Arguments

learner

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

order

(character)
Specifies the chain order using the names of the target labels. E.g. for m target labels, this must be a character vector of length m that contains a permutation of the target label names. Default is NULL which uses a random ordering of the target label names.

Value

Learner.

Examples

d = getTaskData(yeast.task)
# drop some labels so example runs faster
d = d[seq(1, nrow(d), by = 20), c(1:2, 15:17)]
task = makeMultilabelTask(data = d, target = c("label1", "label2"))
lrn = makeLearner("classif.rpart")
lrn = makeMultilabelBinaryRelevanceWrapper(lrn)
lrn = setPredictType(lrn, "prob")
# train, predict and evaluate
mod = train(lrn, task)
#> Error in x[0, , drop = FALSE]: incorrect number of dimensions
pred = predict(mod, task)
#> Error in predict(mod, task): object 'mod' not found
performance(pred, measure = list(multilabel.hamloss, multilabel.subset01, multilabel.f1))
#> Error in performance(pred, measure = list(multilabel.hamloss, multilabel.subset01,     multilabel.f1)): object 'pred' not found
# the next call basically has the same structure for any multilabel meta wrapper
getMultilabelBinaryPerformances(pred, measures = list(mmce, auc))
#> Error in checkClass(x, classes, ordered, null.ok): object 'pred' not found
# above works also with predictions from resample!
