EnsembleVoteClassifier

EnsembleVoteClassifier(clfs, voting='hard', weights=None, verbose=0, use_clones=True, fit_base_estimators=True)

Soft Voting/Majority Rule classifier for scikit-learn estimators.

Parameters

  • clfs : array-like, shape = [n_classifiers]

    A list of classifiers. Invoking the fit method on the VotingClassifier will fit clones of those original classifiers be stored in the class attribute if use_clones=True (default) and fit_base_estimators=True (default).

  • voting : str, {'hard', 'soft'} (default='hard')

    If 'hard', uses predicted class labels for majority rule voting. Else if 'soft', predicts the class label based on the argmax of the sums of the predicted probalities, which is recommended for an ensemble of well-calibrated classifiers.

  • weights : array-like, shape = [n_classifiers], optional (default=None)

    Sequence of weights (float or int) to weight the occurances of predicted class labels (hard voting) or class probabilities before averaging (soft voting). Uses uniform weights if None.

  • verbose : int, optional (default=0)

    Controls the verbosity of the building process. - verbose=0 (default): Prints nothing - verbose=1: Prints the number & name of the clf being fitted - verbose=2: Prints info about the parameters of the clf being fitted - verbose>2: Changes verbose param of the underlying clf to self.verbose - 2

  • use_clones : bool (default: True)

    Clones the classifiers for stacking classification if True (default) or else uses the original ones, which will be refitted on the dataset upon calling the fit method. Hence, if use_clones=True, the original input classifiers will remain unmodified upon using the StackingClassifier's fit method. Setting use_clones=False is recommended if you are working with estimators that are supporting the scikit-learn fit/predict API interface but are not compatible to scikit-learn's clone function.

  • fit_base_estimators : bool (default: True)

    Refits classifiers in clfs if True; uses references to the clfs, otherwise (assumes that the classifiers were already fit). Note: fit_base_estimators=False will enforce use_clones to be False, and is incompatible to most scikit-learn wrappers! For instance, if any form of cross-validation is performed this would require the re-fitting classifiers to training folds, which would raise a NotFitterError if fit_base_estimators=False. (New in mlxtend v0.6.)

Attributes

  • classes_ : array-like, shape = [n_predictions]

  • clf : array-like, shape = [n_predictions]

    The input classifiers; may be overwritten if use_clones=False

  • clf_ : array-like, shape = [n_predictions]

    Fitted input classifiers; clones if use_clones=True

set_score_request(self: mlxtend.classifier.oner.OneRClassifier, , sample_weight: Union[bool, NoneType, str] = '') -> mlxtend.classifier.oner.OneRClassifier*

Request metadata passed to the score method.

Note that this method is only relevant if
``enable_metadata_routing=True`` (see :func:`sklearn.set_config`).
Please see :ref:`User Guide <metadata_routing>` on how the routing
mechanism works.

The options for each parameter are:

- ``True``: metadata is requested, and passed to ``score`` if provided. The request is ignored if metadata is not provided.

- ``False``: metadata is not requested and the meta-estimator will not pass it to ``score``.

- ``None``: metadata is not requested, and the meta-estimator will raise an error if the user provides it.

- ``str``: metadata should be passed to the meta-estimator with this given alias instead of the original name.

The default (``sklearn.utils.metadata_routing.UNCHANGED``) retains the
existing request. This allows you to change the request for some
parameters and not others.

.. versionadded:: 1.3

StackingCVClassifier(classifiers, meta_classifier, use_probas=False, drop_proba_col=None, cv=2, shuffle=True, random_state=None, stratify=True, verbose=0, use_features_in_secondary=False, store_train_meta_features=False, use_clones=True, n_jobs=None, pre_dispatch='2n_jobs')*

A 'Stacking Cross-Validation' classifier for scikit-learn estimators.

New in mlxtend v0.4.3

Parameters

  • classifiers : array-like, shape = [n_classifiers]

    A list of classifiers. Invoking the fit method on the StackingCVClassifer will fit clones of these original classifiers that will be stored in the class attribute self.clfs_ if use_clones=True.

  • meta_classifier : object

    The meta-classifier to be fitted on the ensemble of classifiers

  • use_probas : bool (default: False)

    If True, trains meta-classifier based on predicted probabilities instead of class labels.

  • drop_proba_col : string (default: None)

    Drops extra "probability" column in the feature set, because it is redundant: p(y_c) = 1 - p(y_1) + p(y_2) + ... + p(y_{c-1}). This can be useful for meta-classifiers that are sensitive to perfectly collinear features. If 'last', drops last probability column. If 'first', drops first probability column. Only relevant if use_probas=True.

  • cv : int, cross-validation generator or an iterable, optional (default: 2)

    Determines the cross-validation splitting strategy. Possible inputs for cv are: - None, to use the default 2-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. For integer/None inputs, it will use either a KFold or StratifiedKFold cross validation depending the value of stratify argument.

  • shuffle : bool (default: True)

    If True, and the cv argument is integer, the training data will be shuffled at fitting stage prior to cross-validation. If the cv argument is a specific cross validation technique, this argument is omitted.

  • random_state : int, RandomState instance or None, optional (default: None)

    Constrols the randomness of the cv splitter. Used when cv is integer and shuffle=True. New in v0.16.0.

  • stratify : bool (default: True)

    If True, and the cv argument is integer it will follow a stratified K-Fold cross validation technique. If the cv argument is a specific cross validation technique, this argument is omitted.

  • verbose : int, optional (default=0)

    Controls the verbosity of the building process. - verbose=0 (default): Prints nothing - verbose=1: Prints the number & name of the regressor being fitted and which fold is currently being used for fitting - verbose=2: Prints info about the parameters of the regressor being fitted - verbose>2: Changes verbose param of the underlying regressor to self.verbose - 2

  • use_features_in_secondary : bool (default: False)

    If True, the meta-classifier will be trained both on the predictions of the original classifiers and the original dataset. If False, the meta-classifier will be trained only on the predictions of the original classifiers.

  • store_train_meta_features : bool (default: False)

    If True, the meta-features computed from the training data used for fitting the meta-classifier stored in the self.train_meta_features_ array, which can be accessed after calling fit.

  • use_clones : bool (default: True)

    Clones the classifiers for stacking classification if True (default) or else uses the original ones, which will be refitted on the dataset upon calling the fit method. Hence, if use_clones=True, the original input classifiers will remain unmodified upon using the StackingCVClassifier's fit method. Setting use_clones=False is recommended if you are working with estimators that are supporting the scikit-learn fit/predict API interface but are not compatible to scikit-learn's clone function.

  • n_jobs : int or None, optional (default=None)

    The number of CPUs to use to do the computation. None means 1 unless in a joblib.parallel_backend context. -1 means using all processors. for more details. New in v0.16.0.

  • pre_dispatch : int, or string, optional

    Controls the number of jobs that get dispatched during parallel execution. Reducing this number can be useful to avoid an explosion of memory consumption when more jobs get dispatched than CPUs can process. This parameter can be: - None, in which case all the jobs are immediately created and spawned. Use this for lightweight and fast-running jobs, to avoid delays due to on-demand spawning of the jobs - An int, giving the exact number of total jobs that are spawned - A string, giving an expression as a function of n_jobs, as in '2*n_jobs' New in v0.16.0.

Attributes

  • clfs_ : list, shape=[n_classifiers]

    Fitted classifiers (clones of the original classifiers)

  • meta_clf_ : estimator

    Fitted meta-classifier (clone of the original meta-estimator)

A Stacking classifier for scikit-learn estimators for classification.

Parameters

  • classifiers : array-like, shape = [n_classifiers]

    A list of classifiers. Invoking the fit method on the StackingClassifer will fit clones of these original classifiers that will be stored in the class attribute self.clfs_ if use_clones=True (default) and fit_base_estimators=True (default).

  • meta_classifier : object

    The meta-classifier to be fitted on the ensemble of classifiers

  • use_probas : bool (default: False)

    If True, trains meta-classifier based on predicted probabilities instead of class labels.

  • drop_proba_col : string (default: None)

    Drops extra "probability" column in the feature set, because it is redundant: p(y_c) = 1 - p(y_1) + p(y_2) + ... + p(y_{c-1}). This can be useful for meta-classifiers that are sensitive to perfectly collinear features. If 'last', drops last probability column. If 'first', drops first probability column. Only relevant if use_probas=True.

  • average_probas : bool (default: False)

    Averages the probabilities as meta features if True. Only relevant if use_probas=True.

  • verbose : int, optional (default=0)

    Controls the verbosity of the building process. - verbose=0 (default): Prints nothing - verbose=1: Prints the number & name of the regressor being fitted - verbose=2: Prints info about the parameters of the regressor being fitted - verbose>2: Changes verbose param of the underlying regressor to self.verbose - 2

  • use_features_in_secondary : bool (default: False)

    If True, the meta-classifier will be trained both on the predictions of the original classifiers and the original dataset. If False, the meta-classifier will be trained only on the predictions of the original classifiers.

    Clones the classifiers for stacking classification if True (default) or else uses the original ones, which will be refitted on the dataset upon calling the fit method. Hence, if use_clones=True, the original input classifiers will remain unmodified upon using the StackingClassifier's fit method. Setting use_clones=False is recommended if you are working with estimators that are supporting the scikit-learn fit/predict API interface but are not compatible to scikit-learn's clone function. fit_base_estimators: bool (default: True) Refits classifiers in classifiers if True; uses references to the classifiers, otherwise (assumes that the classifiers were already fit). Note: fit_base_estimators=False will enforce use_clones to be False, and is incompatible to most scikit-learn wrappers! For instance, if any form of cross-validation is performed this would require the re-fitting classifiers to training folds, which would raise a NotFitterError if fit_base_estimators=False.

  • X : numpy array, shape = [n_samples, n_features]

    Test vectors, where n_samples is the number of samples and n_features is the number of features.

Returns

  • meta-features : numpy array, shape = [n_samples, n_classifiers]

    Returns the meta-features for test data.

predict_proba(X)

Predict class probabilities for X.

Parameters

  • X : {array-like, sparse matrix}, shape = [n_samples, n_features]

    Training vectors, where n_samples is the number of samples and n_features is the number of features.

Returns

  • proba : array-like, shape = [n_samples, n_classes] or a list of n_outputs of such arrays if n_outputs > 1.

    Probability for each class per sample.

score(X, y, sample_weight=None)

Return the mean accuracy on the given test data and labels.

In multi-label classification, this is the subset accuracy
which is a harsh metric since you require for each sample that
each label set be correctly predicted.

Parameters

  • X : array-like of shape (n_samples, n_features)

    Test samples.

  • y : array-like of shape (n_samples,) or (n_samples, n_outputs)

    True labels for X.

  • sample_weight : array-like of shape (n_samples,), default=None

    Sample weights.

Returns

  • score : float

    Mean accuracy of self.predict(X) w.r.t. y.

set_fit_request(self: mlxtend.classifier.stacking_classification.StackingClassifier, , sample_weight: Union[bool, NoneType, str] = '') -> mlxtend.classifier.stacking_classification.StackingClassifier*

Request metadata passed to the fit method.

Note that this method is only relevant if
``enable_metadata_routing=True`` (see :func:`sklearn.set_config`).
Please see :ref:`User Guide <metadata_routing>` on how the routing
mechanism works.

The options for each parameter are:

- ``True``: metadata is requested, and passed to ``fit`` if provided. The request is ignored if metadata is not provided.

- ``False``: metadata is not requested and the meta-estimator will not pass it to ``fit``.

- ``None``: metadata is not requested, and the meta-estimator will raise an error if the user provides it.

- ``str``: metadata should be passed to the meta-estimator with this given alias instead of the original name.

The default (``sklearn.utils.metadata_routing.UNCHANGED``) retains the
existing request. This allows you to change the request for some
parameters and not others.

.. versionadded:: 1.3

.. note::
This method is only relevant if this estimator is used as a
sub-estimator of a meta-estimator, e.g. used inside a
:class:`~sklearn.pipeline.Pipeline`. Otherwise it has no effect.

Parameters

  • sample_weight : str, True, False, or None, default=sklearn.utils.metadata_routing.UNCHANGED

    Metadata routing for sample_weight parameter in fit.

Returns

  • self : object

    The updated object.

set_output(, transform=None)*

Set output container.

See :ref:`sphx_glr_auto_examples_miscellaneous_plot_set_output.py`
for an example on how to use the API.

Parameters

  • transform : {"default", "pandas"}, default=None

    Configure output of transform and fit_transform.

    • "default": Default output format of a transformer
    • "pandas": DataFrame output
    • None: Transform configuration is unchanged

Returns

  • self : estimator instance

    Estimator instance.

set_params(params)

Set the parameters of this estimator.

Valid parameter keys can be listed with ``get_params()``.

Returns

self

set_score_request(self: mlxtend.classifier.stacking_classification.StackingClassifier, , sample_weight: Union[bool, NoneType, str] = '') -> mlxtend.classifier.stacking_classification.StackingClassifier*

Request metadata passed to the score method.

Note that this method is only relevant if
``enable_metadata_routing=True`` (see :func:`sklearn.set_config`).
Please see :ref:`User Guide <metadata_routing>` on how the routing
mechanism works.

The options for each parameter are:

- ``True``: metadata is requested, and passed to ``score`` if provided. The request is ignored if metadata is not provided.

- ``False``: metadata is not requested and the meta-estimator will not pass it to ``score``.

- ``None``: metadata is not requested, and the meta-estimator will raise an error if the user provides it.

- ``str``: metadata should be passed to the meta-estimator with this given alias instead of the original name.

The default (``sklearn.utils.metadata_routing.UNCHANGED``) retains the
