GridSearchCV (original) (raw)

class sklearn.model_selection.GridSearchCV(estimator, param_grid, *, scoring=None, n_jobs=None, refit=True, cv=None, verbose=0, pre_dispatch='2*n_jobs', error_score=nan, return_train_score=False)[source]#

Exhaustive search over specified parameter values for an estimator.

Important members are fit, predict.

GridSearchCV implements a “fit” and a “score” method. It also implements “score_samples”, “predict”, “predict_proba”, “decision_function”, “transform” and “inverse_transform” if they are implemented in the estimator used.

The parameters of the estimator used to apply these methods are optimized by cross-validated grid-search over a parameter grid.

Read more in the User Guide.

Parameters:

estimatorestimator object

This is assumed to implement the scikit-learn estimator interface. Either estimator needs to provide a score function, or scoring must be passed.

param_griddict or list of dictionaries

Dictionary with parameters names (str) as keys and lists of parameter settings to try as values, or a list of such dictionaries, in which case the grids spanned by each dictionary in the list are explored. This enables searching over any sequence of parameter settings.

scoringstr, callable, list, tuple or dict, default=None

Strategy to evaluate the performance of the cross-validated model on the test set.

If scoring represents a single score, one can use:

If scoring represents multiple scores, one can use:

See Specifying multiple metrics for evaluation for an example.

n_jobsint, default=None

Number of jobs to run in parallel.None means 1 unless in a joblib.parallel_backend context.-1 means using all processors. See Glossaryfor more details.

Changed in version v0.20: n_jobs default changed from 1 to None

refitbool, str, or callable, default=True

Refit an estimator using the best found parameters on the whole dataset.

For multiple metric evaluation, this needs to be a str denoting the scorer that would be used to find the best parameters for refitting the estimator at the end.

Where there are considerations other than maximum score in choosing a best estimator, refit can be set to a function which returns the selected best_index_ given cv_results_. In that case, the best_estimator_ and best_params_ will be set according to the returned best_index_ while the best_score_attribute will not be available.

The refitted estimator is made available at the best_estimator_attribute and permits using predict directly on thisGridSearchCV instance.

Also for multiple metric evaluation, the attributes best_index_,best_score_ and best_params_ will only be available ifrefit is set and all of them will be determined w.r.t this specific scorer.

See scoring parameter to know more about multiple metric evaluation.

See Custom refit strategy of a grid search with cross-validationto see how to design a custom selection strategy using a callable via refit.

Changed in version 0.20: Support for callable added.

cvint, cross-validation generator or an iterable, default=None

Determines the cross-validation splitting strategy. Possible inputs for cv are:

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.

Changed in version 0.22: cv default value if None changed from 3-fold to 5-fold.

verboseint

Controls the verbosity: the higher, the more messages.

pre_dispatchint, or str, default=’2*n_jobs’

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:

error_score‘raise’ or numeric, default=np.nan

Value to assign to the score if an error occurs in estimator fitting. If set to ‘raise’, the error is raised. If a numeric value is given, FitFailedWarning is raised. This parameter does not affect the refit step, which will always raise the error.

return_train_scorebool, default=False

If False, the cv_results_ attribute will not include training scores. Computing training scores is used to get insights on how different parameter settings impact the overfitting/underfitting trade-off. However computing the scores on the training set can be computationally expensive and is not strictly required to select the parameters that yield the best generalization performance.

Added in version 0.19.

Changed in version 0.21: Default value was changed from True to False

Attributes:

**cv_results_**dict of numpy (masked) ndarrays

A dict with keys as column headers and values as columns, that can be imported into a pandas DataFrame.

For instance the below given table

will be represented by a cv_results_ dict of:

{ 'param_kernel': masked_array(data = ['poly', 'poly', 'rbf', 'rbf'], mask = [False False False False]...) 'param_gamma': masked_array(data = [-- -- 0.1 0.2], mask = [ True True False False]...), 'param_degree': masked_array(data = [2.0 3.0 -- --], mask = [False False True True]...), 'split0_test_score' : [0.80, 0.70, 0.80, 0.93], 'split1_test_score' : [0.82, 0.50, 0.70, 0.78], 'mean_test_score' : [0.81, 0.60, 0.75, 0.85], 'std_test_score' : [0.01, 0.10, 0.05, 0.08], 'rank_test_score' : [2, 4, 3, 1], 'split0_train_score' : [0.80, 0.92, 0.70, 0.93], 'split1_train_score' : [0.82, 0.55, 0.70, 0.87], 'mean_train_score' : [0.81, 0.74, 0.70, 0.90], 'std_train_score' : [0.01, 0.19, 0.00, 0.03], 'mean_fit_time' : [0.73, 0.63, 0.43, 0.49], 'std_fit_time' : [0.01, 0.02, 0.01, 0.01], 'mean_score_time' : [0.01, 0.06, 0.04, 0.04], 'std_score_time' : [0.00, 0.00, 0.00, 0.01], 'params' : [{'kernel': 'poly', 'degree': 2}, ...], }

NOTE

The key 'params' is used to store a list of parameter settings dicts for all the parameter candidates.

The mean_fit_time, std_fit_time, mean_score_time andstd_score_time are all in seconds.

For multi-metric evaluation, the scores for all the scorers are available in the cv_results_ dict at the keys ending with that scorer’s name ('_<scorer_name>') instead of '_score' shown above. (‘split0_test_precision’, ‘mean_train_precision’ etc.)

**best_estimator_**estimator

Estimator that was chosen by the search, i.e. estimator which gave highest score (or smallest loss if specified) on the left out data. Not available if refit=False.

See refit parameter for more information on allowed values.

**best_score_**float

Mean cross-validated score of the best_estimator

For multi-metric evaluation, this is present only if refit is specified.

This attribute is not available if refit is a function.

**best_params_**dict

Parameter setting that gave the best results on the hold out data.

For multi-metric evaluation, this is present only if refit is specified.

**best_index_**int

The index (of the cv_results_ arrays) which corresponds to the best candidate parameter setting.

The dict at search.cv_results_['params'][search.best_index_] gives the parameter setting for the best model, that gives the highest mean score (search.best_score_).

For multi-metric evaluation, this is present only if refit is specified.

**scorer_**function or a dict

Scorer function used on the held out data to choose the best parameters for the model.

For multi-metric evaluation, this attribute holds the validatedscoring dict which maps the scorer key to the scorer callable.

**n_splits_**int

The number of cross-validation splits (folds/iterations).

**refit_time_**float

Seconds used for refitting the best model on the whole dataset.

This is present only if refit is not False.

Added in version 0.20.

**multimetric_**bool

Whether or not the scorers compute several metrics.

classes_ndarray of shape (n_classes,)

Class labels.

n_features_in_int

Number of features seen during fit.

**feature_names_in_**ndarray of shape (n_features_in_,)

Names of features seen during fit. Only defined ifbest_estimator_ is defined (see the documentation for the refitparameter for more details) and that best_estimator_ exposesfeature_names_in_ when fit.

Added in version 1.0.

ParameterGrid

Generates all the combinations of a hyperparameter grid.

train_test_split

Utility function to split the data into a development set usable for fitting a GridSearchCV instance and an evaluation set for its final evaluation.

sklearn.metrics.make_scorer

Make a scorer from a performance metric or loss function.

Notes

The parameters selected are those that maximize the score of the left out data, unless an explicit score is passed in which case it is used instead.

If n_jobs was set to a value higher than one, the data is copied for each point in the grid (and not n_jobs times). This is done for efficiency reasons if individual jobs take very little time, but may raise errors if the dataset is large and not enough memory is available. A workaround in this case is to set pre_dispatch. Then, the memory is copied onlypre_dispatch many times. A reasonable value for pre_dispatch is 2 * n_jobs.

**paramsdict of str -> object

Parameters passed to the fit method of the estimator, the scorer, and the CV splitter.

If a fit parameter is an array-like whose length is equal tonum_samples then it will be split by cross-validation along withX and y. For example, the sample_weight parameter is split because len(sample_weights) = len(X). However, this behavior does not apply to groups which is passed to the splitter configured via the cv parameter of the constructor. Thus, groups is used_to perform the split_ and determines which samples are assigned to the each side of the a split.
