Preprocessing

Import and Prepare Data

library(mlbench)
data("BostonHousing")
dataset <- BostonHousing |>
  data.table::as.data.table() |>
  na.omit()

feature_cols <- colnames(dataset)[1:13]
target_col <- "medv"
cat_vars <- "chas"

General Configurarions

seed <- 123
if (isTRUE(as.logical(Sys.getenv("_R_CHECK_LIMIT_CORES_")))) {
  # on cran
  ncores <- 2L
} else {
  ncores <- ifelse(

      yes = 1L,
      no = parallel::detectCores()
    )
  )
}
options("mlexperiments.bayesian.max_init" = 10L)

Generate Training- and Test Data

data_split <- splitTools::partition(
  y = dataset[, get(target_col)],
  p = c(train = 0.7, test = 0.3),
  type = "stratified",
  seed = seed
)

train_x <- data.matrix(
  dataset[data_split$train, .SD, .SDcols = feature_cols]
)
train_y <- dataset[data_split$train, get(target_col)]


test_x <- data.matrix(
  dataset[data_split$test, .SD, .SDcols = feature_cols]
)
test_y <- dataset[data_split$test, get(target_col)]

Generate Training Data Folds

fold_list <- splitTools::create_folds(

  k = 3,
  type = "stratified",

)
