This model uses regularized least squares to fit models with numeric outcomes.
Details
For this engine, there is a single mode: regression
Tuning Parameters
This model has one tuning parameter:
penalty: Amount of Regularization (type: double, default: 0.0)
For penalty, the amount of regularization is only L2 penalty (i.e.,
ridge or weight decay).

## Main Arguments:
## penalty = double(1)
##
## Computational engine: keras
##
## Model fit template:
## parsnip::keras_mlp(x = missing_arg(), y = missing_arg(), penalty = double(1),
## hidden_units = 1, act = "linear")keras_mlp() is a parsnip wrapper around keras code for
neural networks. This model fits a linear regression as a network with a
single hidden unit.
Preprocessing requirements
Factor/categorical predictors need to be converted to numeric values
(e.g., dummy or indicator variables) for this engine. When using the
formula method via fit(), parsnip will
convert factor columns to indicators.
Predictors should have the same scale. One way to achieve this is to center and scale each so that each predictor has mean zero and a variance of one.
Examples
The “Fitting and Predicting with parsnip” article contains
examples
for linear_reg() with the "keras" engine.
