\title{Generates a grid design for a parameter set.}
\usage{
generateGridDesign(par.set, resolution, trafo = FALSE)
}
\arguments{
\item{par.set}{\link{ParamSet}\cr
Parameter set.}
\item{resolution}{(\code{integer})\cr
Resolution of the grid for each numeric/integer parameter in \code{par.set}.
For vector parameters, it is the resolution per dimension.
Either pass one resolution for all parameters, or a named vector.}
\item{trafo}{(\code{logical(1)})\cr
Transform all parameters by using theirs respective transformation
functions. Default is \code{FALSE}.}
}
\value{
\link{data.frame}. Columns are named by the ids of the parameters. If the
\code{par.set} argument contains a vector parameter, its corresponding column
names in the design are the parameter id concatenated with 1 to dimension
of the vector. The result will have an \code{logical(1)} attribute
\dQuote{trafo}, which is set to the value of argument \code{trafo}.
}
\description{
The following types of columns are created:
\tabular{ll}{
numeric(vector) \tab \code{numeric} \cr
integer(vector) \tab \code{integer} \cr
discrete(vector) \tab \code{factor} (names of values = levels) \cr
logical(vector) \tab \code{logical}
}
If you want to convert these, look at \code{\link[BBmisc:convertDataFrameCols]{BBmisc::convertDataFrameCols()}}.
Dependent parameters whose constraints are unsatisfied generate \code{NA} entries
in their respective columns. For discrete vectors the levels and their order
will be preserved.
The algorithm currently performs these steps:
\enumerate{
\item{We create a grid. For numerics and integers we use the specified resolution. For discretes all values will be taken.}
\item{Forbidden points are removed.}
\item{Parameters are trafoed (potentially, depending on the setting of argument \code{trafo});
dependent parameters whose constraints are unsatisfied are set to \code{NA} entries.}
\item{Duplicated points are removed. Duplicated points are not generated in a
grid design, but the way parameter dependencies are handled make this possible.}
}
Note that if you have trafos attached to your params, the complete creation
of the design (except for the detection of invalid parameters w.r.t to their
\code{requires} setting) takes place on the UNTRANSFORMED scale. So this function
creates a regular grid over the param space on the UNTRANSFORMED scale, but
not necessarily the transformed scale.
\code{generateDesign} will NOT work if there are dependencies over multiple levels
of parameters and the dependency is only given with respect to the
\dQuote{previous} parameter. A current workaround is to state all
dependencies on all parameters involved. (We are working on it.)

\examples{
ps = makeParamSet(
makeNumericParam("x1", lower = -2, upper = 1),
makeNumericParam("x2", lower = -2, upper = 2, trafo = function(x) x^2)
)
generateGridDesign(ps, resolution = c(x1 = 4, x2 = 5), trafo = TRUE)
