The multiclass classification catalog trainer object.
- labelColumnName
- String
The name of the label column. The column data must be KeyDataViewType.
- featureColumnName
- String
The name of the feature column. The column data must be a known-sized vector of Single.
- exampleWeightColumnName
- String
The name of the example weight column (optional).
The L2 weight for regularization.
The L1 regularization hyperparameter. Higher values will tend to lead to more sparse model.
