Density Plug-In Kernel Learner

Kernel density estimation with global bandwidth selection via "plug-in". Calls plugdensity::plugin.density() from plugdensity.

Dictionary

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

mlr_learners$get("dens.plug")
lrn("dens.plug")

Meta Information

• Task type: “dens”

• Predict Types: “pdf”

• Feature Types: “numeric”

• Required Packages: mlr3, mlr3proba, mlr3extralearners, plugdensity

Parameters

Id	Type	Default	Levels
na.rm	logical	FALSE	TRUE, FALSE
