Oh how I wish this was true! Luckily RStudio hired the author of Caret to develop a family of smaller tidy modeling packages (https://github.com/tidymodels https://github.com/tidymodels), and with recipes we're finally close to having something like sklearn's Pipelines, which IMO is one of the best parts of sklearn.
- nerdponx 8y agoTrue, the pipeline is a great feature. I haven't used tidymodels yet but it looks like the start of a great ecosystem. I do remember seeing Broom at a talk a couple years ago and thought it was a nice idea.
