Facilitates the use of machine learning algorithms in classification and regression (including time series forecasting) tasks by presenting a short and coherent set of functions. Versions: 1.5.0 improved mparheuristic function (new hyperparameter heuristics); 1.4.9 / 1.4.8 improved help, several warning and error code fixes (more stable version, all examples run correctly); 1.4.7 - improved Importance function and examples, minor error fixes; 1.4.6 / 1.4.5 / 1.4.4 new automated machine learning (AutoML) and ensembles, via improved fit(), mining() and mparheuristic() functions, and new categorical preprocessing, via improved delevels() function; 1.4.3 new metrics (e.g., macro precision, explained variance), new "lssvm" model and improved mparheuristic() function; 1.4.2 new "NMAE" metric, "xgboost" and "cv.glmnet" models (16 classification and 18 regression models); 1.4.1 new tutorial and more robust version; 1.4 - new classification and regression models, with a total of 14 classification and 15 regression methods, including: Decision Trees, Neural Networks, Support Vector Machines, Random Forests, Bagging and Boosting; 1.3 and 1.3.1 - new classification and regression metrics; 1.2 - new input importance methods via improved Importance() function; 1.0 - first version.
