check_is_fitted()[source]#

Check if the estimator has been fitted.

Inspects object’s _is_fitted attribute that should initialize to False during object construction, and be set to True in calls to an object’s fit method.

Raises:
NotFittedError

If the estimator has not been fitted yet.

clone()[source]#

Obtain a clone of the object with same hyper-parameters.

A clone is a different object without shared references, in post-init state. This function is equivalent to returning sklearn.clone of self.

Raises:
RuntimeError if the clone is non-conforming, due to faulty __init__.

Notes

If successful, equal in value to type(self)(**self.get_params(deep=False)).

clone_tags(estimator, tag_names=None)[source]#

Clone tags from another estimator as dynamic override.

Parameters:
estimatorestimator inheriting from :class:BaseEstimator
tag_namesstr or list of str, default = None

Names of tags to clone. If None then all tags in estimator are used as tag_names.

Returns:
Self

Reference to self.

Notes

Changes object state by setting tag values in tag_set from estimator as dynamic tags in self.

classmethod create_test_instance(parameter_set='default')[source]#

get_fitted_params(deep=True)[source]#

Get fitted parameters.

State required:

Requires state to be “fitted”.

Parameters:
deepbool, default=True

Whether to return fitted parameters of components.

  • If True, will return a dict of parameter name : value for this object, including fitted parameters of fittable components (= BaseEstimator-valued parameters).

  • If False, will return a dict of parameter name : value for this object, but not include fitted parameters of components.

Returns:
fitted_paramsdict with str-valued keys

Dictionary of fitted parameters, paramname : paramvalue keys-value pairs include:

  • always: all fitted parameters of this object, as via get_param_names values are fitted parameter value for that key, of this object

  • if deep=True, also contains keys/value pairs of component parameters parameters of components are indexed as [componentname]__[paramname] all parameters of componentname appear as paramname with its value

  • if deep=True, also contains arbitrary levels of component recursion, e.g., [componentname]__[componentcomponentname]__[paramname], etc

classmethod get_param_defaults()[source]#

Get object’s parameter defaults.

Returns:
default_dict: dict[str, Any]

Keys are all parameters of cls that have a default defined in __init__ values are the defaults, as defined in __init__.

classmethod get_param_names()[source]#

Get object’s parameter names.

Returns:
param_names: list[str]

Alphabetically sorted list of parameter names of cls.

get_params(deep=True)[source]#

Get a dict of parameters values for this object.

This expands on get_params of standard BaseObject by also retrieving components parameters when deep=True a component’s follows the named object API (either sequence of str, BaseObject tuples or dict[str, BaseObject]).

Parameters:
deepbool, default=True

Whether to return parameters of components.

  • If True, will return a dict of parameter name : value for this object, including parameters of components.

  • If False, will return a dict of parameter name : value for this object, but not include parameters of components.

Returns:
dict[str, Any]

Dictionary of parameter name and value pairs. Includes direct parameters and indirect parameters whose values implement get_params or follow the named object API (either sequence of str, BaseObject tuples or dict[str, BaseObject]).

  • If deep=False the name-value pairs for this object’s direct parameters (you can see these via get_param_names) are returned.

  • If deep=True then the parameter name-value pairs are returned for direct and component (indirect) parameters.

    • When a BaseObject’s direct parameter value implements get_params the component parameters are returned as [direct_param_name]__[component_param_name] for 1st level components. Arbitrary levels of component recursion are supported (if the component has parameter’s whose values are objects that implement get_params). In this case, return parameters follow [direct_param_name]__[component_param_name]__[param_name] format.

    • When a BaseObject’s direct parameter value is a sequence of (name, BaseObject) tuples or dict[str, BaseObject] the parameters name and value pairs of all component objects are returned. The parameter naming follows scikit-learn convention of treating named component objects like they are direct parameters; therefore, the names are assigned as [component_param_name]__[param_name].

get_tag(tag_name, tag_value_default=None, raise_error=True)[source]#

Get tag value from estimator class and dynamic tag overrides.

Parameters:
tag_namestr

Name of tag to be retrieved

tag_value_defaultany type, optional; default=None

Default/fallback value if tag is not found

raise_errorbool

whether a ValueError is raised when the tag is not found

Returns:
tag_valueAny

Value of the tag_name tag in self. If not found, returns an error if raise_error is True, otherwise it returns tag_value_default.

Raises:
ValueError if raise_error is True i.e. if tag_name is not in
self.get_tags().keys()
get_tags()[source]#

Get tags from estimator class and dynamic tag overrides.

Returns:
collected_tagsdict

Dictionary of tag name : tag value pairs. Collected from _tags class attribute via nested inheritance and then any overrides and new tags from _tags_dynamic object attribute.

classmethod get_test_params(parameter_set='default')[source]#

Return testing parameter settings for the estimator.

Parameters:
parameter_setstr, default=”default”

Name of the set of test parameters to return, for use in tests. If no special parameters are defined for a value, will return “default” set.

Returns:
paramsdict or list of dict, default = {}

Parameters to create testing instances of the class Each dict are parameters to construct an “interesting” test instance, i.e., MyClass(**params) or MyClass(**params[i]) creates a valid test instance. create_test_instance uses the first (or only) dictionary in params

is_composite()[source]#

Check if the object is composite.

A composite object is an object which contains objects as parameter values.

Returns:
bool

Whether self contains a parameter whose value is a BaseObject, list of (str, BaseObject) tuples or dict[str, BaseObject].

property is_fitted[source]#

Whether fit has been called.

Inspects object’s _is_fitted attribute that should initialize to False during object construction, and be set to True in calls to an object’s fit method.

Returns:
bool

Whether the estimator has been fit.

property name[source]#

Return the name of the object or estimator.

reset()[source]#

Reset the object to a clean post-init state.

Using reset, runs __init__ with current values of hyper-parameters (result of get_params). This Removes any object attributes, except:

  • hyper-parameters = arguments of __init__

  • object attributes containing double-underscores, i.e., the string “__”

Class and object methods, and class attributes are also unaffected.

Returns:
self

Instance of class reset to a clean post-init state but retaining the current hyper-parameter values.

Notes

Equivalent to sklearn.clone but overwrites self. After self.reset() call, self is equal in value to type(self)(**self.get_params(deep=False))

set_config(**config_dict)[source]#

Set config flags to given values.

Parameters:
config_dictdict

Dictionary of config name : config value pairs.

Returns:
selfreference to self.

Notes

Changes object state, copies configs in config_dict to self._config_dynamic.

set_params(**kwargs)[source]#

Set the object’s direct parameters and the parameters of components.

Valid parameter keys can be listed with get_params().

Like BaseObject implementation it allows values of indirect parameters of a component to be set when a parameter’s value is an object that implements set_params. This also also expands the functionality to allow parameter to allow the indirect parameters of components to be set when a parameter’s values follow the named object API (either sequence of str, BaseObject tuples or dict[str, BaseObject]).

Returns:
Self

Instance of self.

set_random_state(random_state=None, deep=True, self_policy='copy')[source]#

Set random_state pseudo-random seed parameters for self.

Finds random_state named parameters via estimator.get_params, and sets them to integers derived from random_state via set_params. These integers are sampled from chain hashing via sample_dependent_seed, and guarantee pseudo-random independence of seeded random generators.

Applies to random_state parameters in estimator depending on self_policy, and remaining component estimators if and only if deep=True.

Note: calls set_params even if self does not have a random_state, or none of the components have a random_state parameter. Therefore, set_random_state will reset any scikit-base estimator, even those without a random_state parameter.

Parameters:
random_stateint, RandomState instance or None, default=None

Pseudo-random number generator to control the generation of the random integers. Pass int for reproducible output across multiple function calls.

deepbool, default=True

Whether to set the random state in sub-estimators. If False, will set only self’s random_state parameter, if exists. If True, will set random_state parameters in sub-estimators as well.

self_policystr, one of {“copy”, “keep”, “new”}, default=”copy”
  • “copy” : estimator.random_state is set to input random_state

  • “keep” : estimator.random_state is kept as is

  • “new” : estimator.random_state is set to a new random state,

derived from input random_state, and in general different from it

Returns:
selfreference to self
set_tags(**tag_dict)[source]#

Set dynamic tags to given values.

Parameters:
**tag_dictdict

Dictionary of tag name: tag value pairs.

Returns:
Self

Reference to self.

Notes

Changes object state by setting tag values in tag_dict as dynamic tags in self.
