__init__(self, max_depth=3, learning_rate=0.1, n_estimators=100, verbosity=1, silent=None, objective='binary:logistic', booster='gbtree', n_jobs=1, nthread=None, gamma=0, min_child_weight=1, max_delta_step=0, subsample=1, colsample_bytree=1, colsample_bylevel=1, colsample_bynode=1, reg_alpha=0, reg_lambda=1, scale_pos_weight=1, base_score=0.5, random_state=0, seed=None, missing=None, **kwargs)¶: Initialize self. See help(type(self)) for accurate signature.

apply(self, X, ntree_limit=0)¶

Return the predicted leaf every tree for each sample.

Parameters:	X : array_like, shape=[n_samples, n_features] Input features matrix. ntree_limit : int Limit number of trees in the prediction; defaults to 0 (use all trees).
Returns:	X_leaves : array_like, shape=[n_samples, n_trees] For each datapoint x in X and for each tree, return the index of the leaf x ends up in. Leaves are numbered within `[0; 2**(self.max_depth+1))`, possibly with gaps in the numbering.

coef_¶

Coefficients property

Note

Coefficients are defined only for linear learners

Coefficients are only defined when the linear model is chosen as base learner (booster=gblinear). It is not defined for other base learner types, such as tree learners (booster=gbtree).

Returns:	coef_ : array of shape `[n_features]` or `[n_classes, n_features]`

evals_result(self)¶

Return the evaluation results.

If eval_set is passed to the fit function, you can call evals_result() to get evaluation results for all passed eval_sets. When eval_metric is also passed to the fit function, the evals_result will contain the eval_metrics passed to the fit function.

Returns:	evals_result : dictionary

feature_importances_¶

Feature importances property

Note

Feature importance is defined only for tree boosters

Feature importance is only defined when the decision tree model is chosen as base learner (booster=gbtree). It is not defined for other base learner types, such as linear learners (booster=gblinear).

Returns:	feature_importances_ : array of shape `[n_features]`

fit(self, X, y=None, classes=None)¶

Fit a gradient boosting classifier

Parameters:	X : array-like [n_samples, n_features] Feature Matrix. May be a dask.array or dask.dataframe y : array-like Labels classes : sequence, optional The unique values in y. If no specified, this will be eagerly computed from y before training.
Returns:	self : XGBClassifier

Notes

This differs from the XGBoost version in three ways

The sample_weight, eval_set, eval_metric,

early_stopping_rounds and verbose fit kwargs are not supported.

The labels are not automatically label-encoded
The classes_ and n_classes_ attributes are not learned

get_booster(self)¶

Get the underlying xgboost Booster of this model.

This will raise an exception when fit was not called

Returns:	booster : a xgboost booster of underlying model

get_num_boosting_rounds(self)¶: Gets the number of xgboost boosting rounds.

get_params(self, deep=False)¶: Get parameters.

get_xgb_params(self)¶: Get xgboost type parameters.

intercept_¶

Intercept (bias) property

Note

Intercept is defined only for linear learners

Intercept (bias) is only defined when the linear model is chosen as base learner (booster=gblinear). It is not defined for other base learner types, such as tree learners (booster=gbtree).

Returns:	intercept_ : array of shape `(1,)` or `[n_classes]`

load_model(self, fname)¶

Load the model from a file.

The model is loaded from an XGBoost internal binary format which is universal among the various XGBoost interfaces. Auxiliary attributes of the Python Booster object (such as feature names) will not be loaded. Label encodings (text labels to numeric labels) will be also lost. If you are using only the Python interface, we recommend pickling the model object for best results.

Parameters:	fname : string or a memory buffer Input file name or memory buffer(see also save_raw)

predict(self, X)¶

Predict with data.

Note

This function is not thread safe.

For each booster object, predict can only be called from one thread. If you want to run prediction using multiple thread, call xgb.copy() to make copies of model object and then call predict().

Note

Using predict() with DART booster

If the booster object is DART type, predict() will perform dropouts, i.e. only some of the trees will be evaluated. This will produce incorrect results if data is not the training data. To obtain correct results on test sets, set ntree_limit to a nonzero value, e.g.

preds = bst.predict(dtest, ntree_limit=num_round)

Parameters:

data : DMatrix: The dmatrix storing the input.
output_margin : bool: Whether to output the raw untransformed margin value.
ntree_limit : int: Limit number of trees in the prediction; defaults to best_ntree_limit if defined (i.e. it has been trained with early stopping), otherwise 0 (use all trees).
validate_features : bool: When this is True, validate that the Booster’s and data’s feature_names are identical. Otherwise, it is assumed that the feature_names are the same.
Returns
——-
prediction : numpy array

predict_proba(self, data, ntree_limit=None)¶

Predict the probability of each data example being of a given class.

Note

This function is not thread safe

For each booster object, predict can only be called from one thread. If you want to run prediction using multiple thread, call xgb.copy() to make copies of model object and then call predict

Parameters:

data : DMatrix: The dmatrix storing the input.
ntree_limit : int: Limit number of trees in the prediction; defaults to best_ntree_limit if defined (i.e. it has been trained with early stopping), otherwise 0 (use all trees).
validate_features : bool: When this is True, validate that the Booster’s and data’s feature_names are identical. Otherwise, it is assumed that the feature_names are the same.

Returns:

prediction : numpy array: a numpy array with the probability of each data example being of a given class.

save_model(self, fname)¶

Save the model to a file.

The model is saved in an XGBoost internal binary format which is universal among the various XGBoost interfaces. Auxiliary attributes of the Python Booster object (such as feature names) will not be loaded. Label encodings (text labels to numeric labels) will be also lost. If you are using only the Python interface, we recommend pickling the model object for best results.

Parameters:	fname : string Output file name

score(self, X, y, sample_weight=None)¶

Returns 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, shape = (n_samples, n_features) Test samples. y : array-like, shape = (n_samples) or (n_samples, n_outputs) True labels for X. sample_weight : array-like, shape = [n_samples], optional Sample weights.
Returns:	score : float Mean accuracy of self.predict(X) wrt. y.

set_params(self, **params)¶: Set the parameters of this estimator. Modification of the sklearn method to allow unknown kwargs. This allows using the full range of xgboost parameters that are not defined as member variables in sklearn grid search. Returns ——- self
