So you want to compete in a kaggle competition with R and you want to use tidymodels. In this howto I show how you can use CatBoost with tidymodels. I give very terse descriptions of what the steps do, because I believe you read this post for implementation, not background on how the elements work. This tutorial is extremely similar to my previous post about using lightGBM with Tidymodels. Why tidymodels? [Read More]

I give very terse descriptions of what the steps do, because I believe you read this post for implementation, not background on how the elements work. Why tidymodels? It is a unified machine learning framework that uses sane defaults, keeps model definitions andimplementation separate and allows you to easily swap models or change parts of the processing.
