Classification J48 Learner

Decision tree algorithm. Calls RWeka::IBk() from RWeka.

Dictionary

This Learner can be instantiated via the dictionary mlr_learners or with the associated sugar function lrn():

mlr_learners$get("classif.J48")
lrn("classif.J48")

Initial parameter values

• output_debug_info:

  • original id: output-debug-info

• do_not_check_capabilities:

  • original id: do-not-check-capabilities

• num_decimal_places:

  • original id: num-decimal-places

• batch_size:

  • original id: batch-size

• Reason for change: This learner contains changed ids of the following control arguments since their ids contain irregular pattern
