New add_case_weights()
,
update_case_weights()
, and
remove_case_weights()
for specifying a column to use as
case weights which will be passed on to the underlying parsnip model
(#118).
R >=3.4.0 is now required, in line with the rest of the tidyverse.
Improved error message in workflow_variables()
if
either outcomes
or predictors
are missing
(#144).
Removed ellipsis dependency in favor of equivalent functions in rlang.
New extract_parameter_set_dials()
and
extract_parameter_dials()
methods to extract parameter sets
and single parameters from workflow
objects.
add_model()
and update_model()
now use
...
to separate the required arguments from the optional
arguments, forcing optional arguments to be named. This change was made
to make it easier for us to extend these functions with new arguments in
the future.
The workflows method for generics::required_pkgs()
is now registered unconditionally (#121).
Internally cleaned up remaining usage of soft-deprecated
pull_*()
functions.
workflow()
has gained new preprocessor
and spec
arguments for adding a preprocessor (such as a
recipe or formula) and a parsnip model specification directly to a
workflow upon creation. In many cases, this can reduce the lines of code
required to construct a complete workflow (#108).
New extract_*()
functions have been added that
supersede the existing pull_*()
functions. This is part of
a larger move across the tidymodels packages towards a family of generic
extract_*()
functions. The pull_*()
functions
have been soft-deprecated, and will eventually be removed
(#106).
add_variables()
now allows for specifying a bundle
of model terms through add_variables(variables = )
,
supplying a pre-created set of variables with the new
workflow_variables()
helper. This is useful for supplying a
set of variables programmatically (#92).
New is_trained_workflow()
for determining if a
workflow has already been trained through a call to fit()
(#91).
fit()
now errors immediately if control
is not created by control_workflow()
(#89).
Added broom::augment()
and
broom::glance()
methods for trained workflow objects
(#76).
Added support for butchering a workflow using
butcher::butcher()
.
Updated to testthat 3.0.0.
.fit_finalize()
for internal usage by the tune
package.New add_variables()
for specifying model terms using
tidyselect expressions with no extra preprocessing. For example:
wf <- workflow() %>%
add_variables(y, c(var1, start_with("x_"))) %>%
add_model(spec_lm)
One benefit of specifying terms in this way over the formula method
is to avoid preprocessing from model.matrix()
, which might
strip the class of your predictor columns (as it does with Date columns)
(#34).
add_formula()
,
workflows now uses model-specific information from parsnip to decide
whether to expand factors via dummy encoding (n - 1
levels), one-hot encoding (n
levels), or no expansion at
all. This should result in more intuitive behavior when working with
models that don’t require dummy variables. For example, if a parsnip
rand_forest()
model is used with a ranger engine, dummy
variables will not be created, because ranger can handle factors
directly (#51, #53).NEWS.md
