Set the hyperparameters of a learner object.
Usage
setHyperPars(learner, ..., par.vals = list())Arguments
- learner
- (Learner | - character(1))
 The learner. If you pass a string the learner will be created via makeLearner.
- ...
- (any) 
 Optional named (hyper)parameters. If you want to set specific hyperparameters for a learner during model creation, these should go here. You can get a list of available hyperparameters using- getParamSet(<learner>). Alternatively hyperparameters can be given using the- par.valsargument but- ...should be preferred!
- par.vals
- (list) 
 Optional list of named (hyper)parameters. The arguments in- ...take precedence over values in this list. We strongly encourage you to use- ...for passing hyperparameters.
Note
If a named (hyper)parameter can't be found for the given learner, the 3 closest (hyper)parameter names will be output in case the user mistyped.

cl1 = makeLearner("classif.ksvm", sigma = 1)
cl2 = setHyperPars(cl1, sigma = 10, par.vals = list(C = 2))
print(cl1)
#> Learner classif.ksvm from package kernlab
#> Type: classif
#> Name: Support Vector Machines; Short name: ksvm
#> Class: classif.ksvm
#> Properties: twoclass,multiclass,numerics,factors,prob,class.weights
#> Predict-Type: response

# note the now set and altered hyperparameters:
