Comparison of packages for prediction: {tidymodels} vs. {mlr3} So I wrote a lot of prediction code for my dissertation using {caret} and I wasn’t interested in learning other frameworks… just because I haven’t had the need to do so. But I’ve learned so much from dabbling around with the {caret} package and I think people that are interested in doing prediction related work will benefit from trying out different packages so I’m writing this post for those interested in looking at what the whole process looks like when using {tidymodels} or {mlr3}.
