Hi can I use deslib library for predicting numerical values (regression problem)?

@maryam3066 Hello,

Unfortunately, the library doesn't have support for regression problems yet. All methods implemented are for classification only.

I have plans in the future to add dynamic selection techniques for regression such as the MINE framework:

https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0020025520307192?casa_token=3v_kQeVLhxkAAAAA:w24yRTt8uQXwIZ-dUCNbVtXXnjEMQ4owMSteAHT3WCYkfzyS7fqy9MIJNi22FgbApL6Z-mav0mI

But this addition will require a bit of work and code refactoring. Since the priority right now is to add the classification techniques that are still not available and improving the overall stability/code performance, regression techniques will only be worked on future releases (version 0.5).
