Generate a Sequence of Tuning Parameters (eta)

Generate a Sequence of Tuning Parameters (eta)

Usage

generate_eta(method = "exponential", n = 10, max_eta = 5)

Arguments

method

Character string specifying the method to generate `eta`. Options are `"linear"` for a linearly spaced sequence, or `"exponential"` for an exponentially spaced sequence scaled to `max_eta`. Default is `"exponential"`.

n

Integer, the number of `eta` values to generate. Default is 10.

max_eta

Numeric, the maximum value of `eta` in the sequence. Default is 5.

Value

Numeric vector of length `n` containing the generated `eta` values.

Examples

# Generate 10 exponentially spaced eta values up to 5
generate_eta(method = "exponential", n = 10, max_eta = 5)

#>  [7] 1.03759328 1.76455236 2.97719318 5.00000000

# Generate 5 linearly spaced eta values up to 3
generate_eta(method = "linear", n = 5, max_eta = 3)
#> [1] 0.00 0.75 1.50 2.25 3.00
