This is a new implementation of the TraitMatching (see https://github.com/TheoreticalEcology/Pichler-et-al-2019 ) package based on mlr3.
More about using machine learning for TraitMatching: https://doi.org/10.1111/2041-210X.13329
To install the package:
devtools::install_github(repo = "https://github.com/MaximilianPi/TraitMatching", subdir = "TraitMatching") library(TraitMatching)
- simulate data (replace the A, B, and Z matrices with your own):
library(TraitMatching)## Warning: replacing previous import 'mlr3measures::tnr' by 'mlr3tuning::tnr' when
## loading 'TraitMatching'
sim = simulateInteraction(weights = list(main = 0.1, inter = c(0.3,0.3,0.3))) A = sim$A B = sim$B Z = sim$binar() community = createCommunity(A, B, Z)

- Fit random forest in a nested resampling strategy and with hyper-parameter tuning:
result = runTM(community = community, method = "RF", iters = 20L)
print(result)## nr resample_result task_id learner_id resampling_id
## 1: 1 <ResampleResult[21]> classif_community classif.ranger.tuned custom
## iters classif.auc
## 1: 10 0.705656
- Compare different ML algorithms:
result = runTM(community = community, method = c("RF", "SVM"), iters = 3L)
print(result)## nr resample_result task_id learner_id resampling_id
## 1: 1 <ResampleResult[21]> classif_community classif.ranger.tuned custom
## 2: 2 <ResampleResult[21]> classif_community classif.svm.tuned custom
## iters classif.auc
## 1: 10 0.7127029
## 2: 10 0.5529854
- Predict target for new data with different ensemble ML algorithms (trained with optimal hyper-parameters)
