• Available in: AutoML
• Hyperparameter: no

Description

Use this option to specify the maximum number of models to build in the AutoML run, excluding the Stacked Ensemble models. This option defaults to Null/None.

• max_runtime_secs_per_model

Example

library(h2o)
h2o.init()

# Import the prostate dataset
prostate <- h2o.importFile("http://s3.amazonaws.com/h2o-public-test-data/smalldata/prostate/prostate_complete.csv.zip")

# Set the predictor names and the response column name
y <- "CAPSULE"
x <- setdiff(names(prostate), c(p_y, "ID"))

# Train AutoML

                  training_frame = prostate,
