cross_val_score (original) (raw)

sklearn.model_selection.cross_val_score(estimator, X, y=None, *, groups=None, scoring=None, cv=None, n_jobs=None, verbose=0, params=None, pre_dispatch='2*n_jobs', error_score=nan)[source]#

Evaluate a score by cross-validation.

Read more in the User Guide.

Parameters:

estimatorestimator object implementing ‘fit’

The object to use to fit the data.

X{array-like, sparse matrix} of shape (n_samples, n_features)

The data to fit. Can be for example a list, or an array.

yarray-like of shape (n_samples,) or (n_samples, n_outputs), default=None

The target variable to try to predict in the case of supervised learning.

groupsarray-like of shape (n_samples,), default=None

Group labels for the samples used while splitting the dataset into train/test set. Only used in conjunction with a “Group” cvinstance (e.g., GroupKFold).

Changed in version 1.4: groups can only be passed if metadata routing is not enabled via sklearn.set_config(enable_metadata_routing=True). When routing is enabled, pass groups alongside other metadata via the paramsargument instead. E.g.:cross_val_score(..., params={'groups': groups}).

scoringstr or callable, default=None

A str (see The scoring parameter: defining model evaluation rules) or a scorer callable object / function with signature scorer(estimator, X, y) which should return only a single value.

Similar to cross_validatebut only a single metric is permitted.

If None, the estimator’s default scorer (if available) is used.

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

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

For int/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.

n_jobsint, default=None

Number of jobs to run in parallel. Training the estimator and computing the score are parallelized over the cross-validation splits.None means 1 unless in a joblib.parallel_backend context.-1 means using all processors. See Glossaryfor more details.

verboseint, default=0

The verbosity level.

paramsdict, default=None

Parameters to pass to the underlying estimator’s fit, the scorer, and the CV splitter.

Added in version 1.4.

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.

Added in version 0.20.

Returns:

scoresndarray of float of shape=(len(list(cv)),)

Array of scores of the estimator for each run of the cross validation.
