constructFastKRRLearner

Fast implementation for Kernel Ridge Regression.


Description

Constructs a learner for the divide and conquer version of KRR.

Usage

constructFastKRRLearner()

Details

This function is to be used with the CVST package as a drop in replacement for constructKRRLearner. The implementation approximates the inversion of the kernel Matrix using the divide an conquer scheme, lowering computational and memory complexity from O(n^3) and O(n^2) to O(n^3/m^2) and O(n^2/m^2) respectively, where m are the number of blocks to be used (parameter nblocks). Theoretically safe values for m are < n^{1/3}, but practically m may be a little bit larger. The function will issue a warning, if the value for m is too large.

Value

Returns a learner similar to constructKRRLearner suitable for the use with CV and fastCV.
