Description

Most of the time the dataset is implemented for ArrayBase<D, Ix2> for records and ArrayBase<D, Ix1> for targets. We could simplify a lot of impls by:

  • renaming Dataset to DatasetBase
  • implement Dataset and DatasetView
  • implement Dataframe
  • support multi-targets and label probabilities

Implement for new types

  • k-folding
  • non-copying k-folding iter_fold
  • bootstrapping
  • shuffling

Improve ergonomics:

  • feature naming
  • target naming
