Package Information

DescriptionExtreme Gradient Boosting

Extreme Gradient Boosting, which is an efficient implementation of the gradient boosting framework from Chen & Guestrin (2016) <doi:10.1145/2939672.2939785>. This package is its R interface. The package includes efficient linear model solver and tree learning algorithms. The package can automatically do parallel computation on a single machine which could be more than 10 times faster than existing gradient boosting packages. It supports various objective functions, including regression, classification and ranking. The package is made to be extensible, so that users are also allowed to define their own objectives easily.

 * \brief span class based on ISO++20 span
 *
 * About NOLINTs in this file:
 *
 *   If we want Span to work with std interface, like range for loop, the
 *   naming must be consistent with std, not XGBoost. Also, the interface also
 *   conflicts with XGBoost coding style, specifically, the use of `explicit'
 *   keyword.
