Gradient Boosting for classification For more details on this class, see sklearn.ensemble.GradientBoostingClassifier
- 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 donβt 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.
- loss: {βlog_lossβ, βexponentialβ}, default=βlog_lossβ
The loss function to be optimized. βlog_lossβ refers to binomial and multinomial deviance, the same as used in logistic regression. It is a good choice for classification with probabilistic outputs. For loss βexponentialβ, gradient boosting recovers the AdaBoost algorithm.
- learning_rate: float, default=0.1
Learning rate shrinks the contribution of each tree by learning_rate. There is a trade-off between learning_rate and n_estimators. Values must be in the range [0.0, inf).
- n_estimators: int, default=100
The number of boosting stages to perform. Gradient boosting is fairly robust to over-fitting so a large number usually results in better performance. Values must be in the range [1, inf).
- subsample: float, default=1.0
The fraction of samples to be used for fitting the individual base learners. If smaller than 1.0 this results in Stochastic Gradient Boosting. subsample interacts with the parameter n_estimators. Choosing subsample < 1.0 leads to a reduction of variance and an increase in bias. Values must be in the range (0.0, 1.0].
- criterion: {βfriedman_mseβ, βsquared_errorβ}, default=βfriedman_mseβ
The function to measure the quality of a split. Supported criteria are βfriedman_mseβ for the mean squared error with improvement score by Friedman, βsquared_errorβ for mean squared error. The default value of βfriedman_mseβ is generally the best as it can provide a better approximation in some cases.
- min_samples_split: int or float, default=2
The minimum number of samples required to split an internal node:
If int, values must be in the range [2, inf).
If float, values must be in the range (0.0, 1.0] and min_samples_split will be ceil(min_samples_split * n_samples).
- min_samples_leaf: int or float, default=1
The minimum number of samples required to be at a leaf node. A split point at any depth will only be considered if it leaves at least
min_samples_leaf
training samples in each of the left and right branches. This may have the effect of smoothing the model, especially in regression.If int, values must be in the range [1, inf).
If float, values must be in the range (0.0, 1.0) and min_samples_leaf will be ceil(min_samples_leaf * n_samples).
- min_weight_fraction_leaf: float, default=0.0
The minimum weighted fraction of the sum total of weights (of all the input samples) required to be at a leaf node. Samples have equal weight when sample_weight is not provided. Values must be in the range [0.0, 0.5].
- max_depth: int or None, default=3
Maximum depth of the individual regression estimators. The maximum depth limits the number of nodes in the tree. Tune this parameter for best performance; the best value depends on the interaction of the input variables. If None, then nodes are expanded until all leaves are pure or until all leaves contain less than min_samples_split samples. If int, values must be in the range [1, inf).
- min_impurity_decrease: float, default=0.0
A node will be split if this split induces a decrease of the impurity greater than or equal to this value. Values must be in the range [0.0, inf).
The weighted impurity decrease equation is the following:
N_t / N * (impurity - N_t_R / N_t * right_impurity - N_t_L / N_t * left_impurity)
where
N
is the total number of samples,N_t
is the number of samples at the current node,N_t_L
is the number of samples in the left child, andN_t_R
is the number of samples in the right child.N
,N_t
,N_t_R
andN_t_L
all refer to the weighted sum, ifsample_weight
is passed.- init: estimator or βzeroβ, default=None
An estimator object that is used to compute the initial predictions.
init
has to provide fit and predict_proba. If βzeroβ, the initial raw predictions are set to zero. By default, aDummyEstimator
predicting the classes priors is used.- random_state: int, RandomState instance or None, default=None
Controls the random seed given to each Tree estimator at each boosting iteration. In addition, it controls the random permutation of the features at each split (see Notes for more details). It also controls the random splitting of the training data to obtain a validation set if n_iter_no_change is not None. Pass an int for reproducible output across multiple function calls. See Glossary.
- max_features: {βsqrtβ, βlog2β}, int or float, default=None
The number of features to consider when looking for the best split:
If int, values must be in the range [1, inf).
If float, values must be in the range (0.0, 1.0] and the features considered at each split will be max(1, int(max_features * n_features_in_)).
If βsqrtβ, then max_features=sqrt(n_features).
If βlog2β, then max_features=log2(n_features).
If None, then max_features=n_features.
Choosing max_features < n_features leads to a reduction of variance and an increase in bias.
Note: the search for a split does not stop until at least one valid partition of the node samples is found, even if it requires to effectively inspect more than
max_features
features.- verbose: int, default=0
Enable verbose output. If 1 then it prints progress and performance once in a while (the more trees the lower the frequency). If greater than 1 then it prints progress and performance for every tree. Values must be in the range [0, inf).
- max_leaf_nodes: int, default=None
Grow trees with
max_leaf_nodes
in best-first fashion. Best nodes are defined as relative reduction in impurity. Values must be in the range [2, inf). If None, then unlimited number of leaf nodes.- warm_start: bool, default=False
When set to
True
, reuse the solution of the previous call to fit and add more estimators to the ensemble, otherwise, just erase the previous solution. See the Glossary.- validation_fraction: float, default=0.1
The proportion of training data to set aside as validation set for early stopping. Values must be in the range (0.0, 1.0). Only used if
n_iter_no_change
is set to an integer.- n_iter_no_change: int, default=None
n_iter_no_change
is used to decide if early stopping will be used to terminate training when validation score is not improving. By default it is set to None to disable early stopping. If set to a number, it will set asidevalidation_fraction
size of the training data as validation and terminate training when validation score is not improving in all of the previousn_iter_no_change
numbers of iterations. The split is stratified. Values must be in the range [1, inf).- tol: float, default=1e-4
Tolerance for the early stopping. When the loss is not improving by at least tol for
n_iter_no_change
iterations (if set to a number), the training stops. Values must be in the range [0.0, inf).- ccp_alpha: non-negative float, default=0.0
Complexity parameter used for Minimal Cost-Complexity Pruning. The subtree with the largest cost complexity that is smaller than
ccp_alpha
will be chosen. By default, no pruning is performed. Values must be in the range [0.0, inf). See minimal_cost_complexity_pruning for details.
