xgb.serialize {xgboost} | R Documentation

## Serialize the booster instance into R's raw vector. The serialization method differs from `xgb.save.raw` as the latter one saves only the model but not parameters. This serialization format is not stable across different xgboost versions.

### Description

Serialize the booster instance into R's raw vector. The serialization method differs from `xgb.save.raw` as the latter one saves only the model but not parameters. This serialization format is not stable across different xgboost versions.

### Usage

    xgb.serialize(booster)

### Arguments

`booster` | the booster instance

### Examples

    data(agaricus.train, package='xgboost')
    data(agaricus.test, package='xgboost')
    train <- agaricus.train
    test <- agaricus.test
    bst <- xgboost(data = train$data, label = train$label, max_depth = 2,
                   eta = 1, nthread = 2, nrounds = 2,objective = "binary:logistic")
    raw <- xgb.serialize(bst)
    bst <- xgb.unserialize(raw)
