Bases: BaseTransformer

Multi-layer Perceptron regressor For more details on this class, see sklearn.neural_network.MLPRegressor

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.

  • hidden_layer_sizes (array-like of shape(n_layers - 2,), default=(100,)) – The ith element represents the number of neurons in the ith hidden layer.

  • activation ({'identity', 'logistic', 'tanh', 'relu'}, default='relu') –

    Activation function for the hidden layer.

    • ’identity’, no-op activation, useful to implement linear bottleneck, returns f(x) = x

    • ’logistic’, the logistic sigmoid function, returns f(x) = 1 / (1 + exp(-x)).

    • ’tanh’, the hyperbolic tan function, returns f(x) = tanh(x).

    • ’relu’, the rectified linear unit function, returns f(x) = max(0, x)

  • solver ({'lbfgs', 'sgd', 'adam'}, default='adam') –

    The solver for weight optimization.

    • ’lbfgs’ is an optimizer in the family of quasi-Newton methods.

    • ’sgd’ refers to stochastic gradient descent.

    • ’adam’ refers to a stochastic gradient-based optimizer proposed by Kingma, Diederik, and Jimmy Ba

    For a comparison between Adam optimizer and SGD, see sphx_glr_auto_examples_neural_networks_plot_mlp_training_curves.py.

    Note: The default solver ‘adam’ works pretty well on relatively large datasets (with thousands of training samples or more) in terms of both training time and validation score. For small datasets, however, ‘lbfgs’ can converge faster and perform better.

  • alpha (float, default=0.0001) – Strength of the L2 regularization term. The L2 regularization term is divided by the sample size when added to the loss.

  • batch_size (int, default='auto') – Size of minibatches for stochastic optimizers. If the solver is ‘lbfgs’, the regressor will not use minibatch. When set to “auto”, batch_size=min(200, n_samples).

  • learning_rate ({'constant', 'invscaling', 'adaptive'}, default='constant') –

    Learning rate schedule for weight updates.

    • ’constant’ is a constant learning rate given by ‘learning_rate_init’.

    • ’invscaling’ gradually decreases the learning rate learning_rate_ at each time step ‘t’ using an inverse scaling exponent of ‘power_t’. effective_learning_rate = learning_rate_init / pow(t, power_t)

    • ’adaptive’ keeps the learning rate constant to ‘learning_rate_init’ as long as training loss keeps decreasing. Each time two consecutive epochs fail to decrease training loss by at least tol, or fail to increase validation score by at least tol if ‘early_stopping’ is on, the current learning rate is divided by 5.

    Only used when solver=’sgd’.

  • learning_rate_init (float, default=0.001) – The initial learning rate used. It controls the step-size in updating the weights. Only used when solver=’sgd’ or ‘adam’.

  • power_t (float, default=0.5) – The exponent for inverse scaling learning rate. It is used in updating effective learning rate when the learning_rate is set to ‘invscaling’. Only used when solver=’sgd’.

  • max_iter (int, default=200) – Maximum number of iterations. The solver iterates until convergence (determined by ‘tol’) or this number of iterations. For stochastic solvers (‘sgd’, ‘adam’), note that this determines the number of epochs (how many times each data point will be used), not the number of gradient steps.

  • shuffle (bool, default=True) – Whether to shuffle samples in each iteration. Only used when solver=’sgd’ or ‘adam’.

  • random_state (int, RandomState instance, default=None) – Determines random number generation for weights and bias initialization, train-test split if early stopping is used, and batch sampling when solver=’sgd’ or ‘adam’. Pass an int for reproducible results across multiple function calls. See Glossary.

  • tol (float, default=1e-4) – Tolerance for the optimization. When the loss or score is not improving by at least tol for n_iter_no_change consecutive iterations, unless learning_rate is set to ‘adaptive’, convergence is considered to be reached and training stops.

  • verbose (bool, default=False) – Whether to print progress messages to stdout.

  • warm_start (bool, default=False) – When set to True, reuse the solution of the previous call to fit as initialization, otherwise, just erase the previous solution. See the Glossary.

  • momentum (float, default=0.9) – Momentum for gradient descent update. Should be between 0 and 1. Only used when solver=’sgd’.

  • nesterovs_momentum (bool, default=True) – Whether to use Nesterov’s momentum. Only used when solver=’sgd’ and momentum > 0.

  • early_stopping (bool, default=False) – Whether to use early stopping to terminate training when validation score is not improving. If set to True, it will automatically set aside validation_fraction of training data as validation and terminate training when validation score is not improving by at least tol for n_iter_no_change consecutive epochs. Only effective when solver=’sgd’ or ‘adam’.

  • validation_fraction (float, default=0.1) – The proportion of training data to set aside as validation set for early stopping. Must be between 0 and 1. Only used if early_stopping is True.

  • beta_1 (float, default=0.9) – Exponential decay rate for estimates of first moment vector in adam, should be in [0, 1). Only used when solver=’adam’.

  • beta_2 (float, default=0.999) – Exponential decay rate for estimates of second moment vector in adam, should be in [0, 1). Only used when solver=’adam’.

  • epsilon (float, default=1e-8) – Value for numerical stability in adam. Only used when solver=’adam’.

  • n_iter_no_change (int, default=10) – Maximum number of epochs to not meet tol improvement. Only effective when solver=’sgd’ or ‘adam’.

  • max_fun (int, default=15000) – Only used when solver=’lbfgs’. Maximum number of function calls. The solver iterates until convergence (determined by tol), number of iterations reaches max_iter, or this number of function calls. Note that number of function calls will be greater than or equal to the number of iterations for the MLPRegressor.
