Custom mlr3 parameters

  • 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
