sklearn.model_selection.StratifiedKFold — scikit-learn 0.20.4 documentation (original) (raw)

class sklearn.model_selection. StratifiedKFold(n_splits='warn', shuffle=False, random_state=None)[source]

Stratified K-Folds cross-validator

Provides train/test indices to split data in train/test sets.

This cross-validation object is a variation of KFold that returns stratified folds. The folds are made by preserving the percentage of samples for each class.

Read more in the User Guide.

Parameters: n_splits : int, default=3 Number of folds. Must be at least 2. Changed in version 0.20: n_splits default value will change from 3 to 5 in v0.22. shuffle : boolean, optional Whether to shuffle each class’s samples before splitting into batches. random_state : int, RandomState instance or None, optional, default=None If int, random_state is the seed used by the random number generator; If RandomState instance, random_state is the random number generator; If None, the random number generator is the RandomState instance used by np.random. Used when shuffle == True.

Notes

Train and test sizes may be different in each fold, with a difference of at most n_classes.

Examples

from sklearn.model_selection import StratifiedKFold X = np.array([[1, 2], [3, 4], [1, 2], [3, 4]]) y = np.array([0, 0, 1, 1]) skf = StratifiedKFold(n_splits=2) skf.get_n_splits(X, y) 2 print(skf)
StratifiedKFold(n_splits=2, random_state=None, shuffle=False) for train_index, test_index in skf.split(X, y): ... print("TRAIN:", train_index, "TEST:", test_index) ... X_train, X_test = X[train_index], X[test_index] ... y_train, y_test = y[train_index], y[test_index] TRAIN: [1 3] TEST: [0 2] TRAIN: [0 2] TEST: [1 3]

Methods

get_n_splits([X, y, groups]) Returns the number of splitting iterations in the cross-validator
split(X, y[, groups]) Generate indices to split data into training and test set.

__init__(n_splits='warn', shuffle=False, random_state=None)[source]

get_n_splits(X=None, y=None, groups=None)[source]

Returns the number of splitting iterations in the cross-validator

Parameters: X : object Always ignored, exists for compatibility. y : object Always ignored, exists for compatibility. groups : object Always ignored, exists for compatibility.
Returns: n_splits : int Returns the number of splitting iterations in the cross-validator.

split(X, y, groups=None)[source]

Generate indices to split data into training and test set.

Parameters: X : array-like, shape (n_samples, n_features) Training data, where n_samples is the number of samples and n_features is the number of features. Note that providing y is sufficient to generate the splits and hence np.zeros(n_samples) may be used as a placeholder forX instead of actual training data. y : array-like, shape (n_samples,) The target variable for supervised learning problems. Stratification is done based on the y labels. groups : object Always ignored, exists for compatibility.
Yields: train : ndarray The training set indices for that split. test : ndarray The testing set indices for that split.

Notes

Randomized CV splitters may return different results for each call of split. You can make the results identical by setting random_stateto an integer.
