Assertion issue in Chapter 12 (hypertuning)

[maltenform]

I'm running the hyperparameter code:

progressr::with_progress(expr = {
rr_spcv_svm = mlr3::resample(task = task,
learner = at_ksvm,
# outer resampling (performance level)
resampling = perf_level,
store_models = FALSE,
encapsulate = "evaluate")
})

and I get

Error in assert_learner(fallback, task_type = self$task_type) :
Assertion on 'fallback' failed: Must inherit from class 'Learner', but has class 'NULL'.

I saw #1110 and tried downgrading my versions (to 0.90 of extralearners and 21.1 of mlr3, as the 0.90 of extra learners said it needed at least 21.1) but no success.

Is this a bug with a known fix?

If it helps, I'm using R 4.4.1 on Mac running 15.2

@maltenform It seems to be working when you remove encapsulate = "evaluate" (however, I cannot explain why this happens; maybe relates to https://github.com/mlr-org/mlr3/pull/1109/files ??, @jannes-m )

progressr::with_progress(expr = {
  rr_spcv_svm = mlr3::resample(task = task,
                               learner = at_ksvm, 
                               # outer resampling (performance level)
                               resampling = perf_level,
                               store_models = FALSE)
})

And so it does work! Have it running now. Thank you!

Well, leaving out the encapsulation parameter will use the default which is NA which means that one error due to only one failed model will stop the entire resampling. Hence, this is not desirable instead we would like to have a fallback learner in these cases.
In any case, this seems to be a mlr3 bug. Therefore, I have opened a corresponding issue, see mlr-org/mlr3#1249
