snowflake.ml.modeling.ensemble.StackingRegressor

class snowflake.ml.modeling.ensemble.StackingRegressor(*, estimators, final_estimator=None, cv=None, n_jobs=None, passthrough=False, verbose=0, input_cols: Optional[Union[str, Iterable[str]]] = None, output_cols: Optional[Union[str, Iterable[str]]] = None, label_cols: Optional[Union[str, Iterable[str]]] = None, passthrough_cols: Optional[Union[str, Iterable[str]]] = None, drop_input_cols: Optional[bool] = False, sample_weight_col: Optional[str] = None)

Bases: BaseTransformer

Stack of estimators with a final regressor For more details on this class, see sklearn.ensemble.StackingRegressor

Parameters:
  • input_cols (Optional[Union[str, List[str]]]) – A string or list of strings representing column names that contain features. If this parameter is not specified, all columns in the input DataFrame except the columns specified by label_cols, sample_weight_col, and passthrough_cols parameters are considered input columns. Input columns can also be set after initialization with the set_input_cols method.

  • label_cols (Optional[Union[str, List[str]]]) – A string or list of strings representing column names that contain labels. Label columns must be specified with this parameter during initialization or with the set_label_cols method before fitting.

  • output_cols (Optional[Union[str, List[str]]]) – A string or list of strings representing column names that will store the output of predict and transform operations. The length of output_cols must match the expected number of output columns from the specific predictor or transformer class used. If you omit this parameter, output column names are derived by adding an OUTPUT_ prefix to the label column names for supervised estimators, or OUTPUT_<IDX>for unsupervised estimators. These inferred output column names work for predictors, but output_cols must be set explicitly for transformers. In general, explicitly specifying output column names is clearer, especially if you don’t specify the input column names. To transform in place, pass the same names for input_cols and output_cols. be set explicitly for transformers. Output columns can also be set after initialization with the set_output_cols method.

  • sample_weight_col (Optional[str]) – A string representing the column name containing the sample weights. This argument is only required when working with weighted datasets. Sample weight column can also be set after initialization with the set_sample_weight_col method.

  • passthrough_cols (Optional[Union[str, List[str]]]) – A string or a list of strings indicating column names to be excluded from any operations (such as train, transform, or inference). These specified column(s) will remain untouched throughout the process. This option is helpful in scenarios requiring automatic input_cols inference, but need to avoid using specific columns, like index columns, during training or inference. Passthrough columns can also be set after initialization with the set_passthrough_cols method.

  • drop_input_cols (Optional[bool], default=False) – If set, the response of predict(), transform() methods will not contain input columns.

  • estimators (list of (str, estimator)) – Base estimators which will be stacked together. Each element of the list is defined as a tuple of string (i.e. name) and an estimator instance. An estimator can be set to ‘drop’ using set_params.

  • final_estimator (estimator, default=None) – A regressor which will be used to combine the base estimators. The default regressor is a RidgeCV.

  • cv (int, cross-validation generator, iterable, or "prefit", default=None) –

    Determines the cross-validation splitting strategy used in cross_val_predict to train final_estimator. Possible inputs for cv are:

    • None, to use the default 5-fold cross validation,

    • integer, to specify the number of folds in a (Stratified) KFold,

    • An object to be used as a cross-validation generator,

    • An iterable yielding train, test splits.

    • ”prefit” to assume the estimators are prefit, and skip cross validation

    For integer/None inputs, if the estimator is a classifier and y is either binary or multiclass, StratifiedKFold is used. In all other cases, KFold is used. These splitters are instantiated with shuffle=False so the splits will be the same across calls.

    Refer User Guide for the various cross-validation strategies that can be used here.

    If “prefit” is passed, it is assumed that all estimators have been fitted already. The final_estimator_ is trained on the estimators predictions on the full training set and are not cross validated predictions. Please note that if the models have been trained on the same data to train the stacking model, there is a very high risk of overfitting.

  • n_jobs (int, default=None) – The number of jobs to run in parallel for fit of all estimators. None means 1 unless in a joblib.parallel_backend context. -1 means using all processors. See Glossary for more details.

  • passthrough (bool, default=False) – When False, only the predictions of estimators will be used as training data for final_estimator. When True, the final_estimator is trained on the predictions as well as the original training data.

  • verbose (int, default=0) – Verbosity level.

Base class for all transformers.
