Sklearn-genetic-opt ###################

scikit-learn models hyperparameters tuning and feature selection, using evolutionary algorithms.

This is meant to be an alternative to popular methods inside scikit-learn such as Grid Search and Randomized Grid Search for hyperparameteres tuning, and from RFE, Select From Model for feature selection.

Sklearn-genetic-opt uses evolutionary algorithms from the DEAP package to choose the set of hyperparameters that optimizes (max or min) the cross-validation scores, it can be used for both regression and classification problems.

Documentation is available here <https://sklearn-genetic-opt.readthedocs.io/>_

Main Features: ##############

• GASearchCV: Main class of the package for hyperparameters tuning, holds the evolutionary cross-validation optimization routine.
• GAFeatureSelectionCV: Main class of the package for feature selection.
• Algorithms: Set of different evolutionary algorithms to use as an optimization procedure.
• Callbacks: Custom evaluation strategies to generate early stopping rules, logging (into TensorBoard, .pkl files, etc) or your custom logic.
• Schedulers: Adaptive methods to control learning parameters.
• Plots: Generate pre-defined plots to understand the optimization process.
• MLflow: Build-in integration with mlflow to log all the hyperparameters, cv-scores and the fitted models.

Artifacts logging:

Usage:

Install sklearn-genetic-opt

It's advised to install sklearn-genetic using a virtual env, inside the env use::

pip install sklearn-genetic-opt

If you want to get all the features, including plotting and mlflow logging capabilities, install all the extra packages::

pip install sklearn-genetic-opt[all]

The only optional dependency that the last command does not install, it's Tensorflow, it is usually advised to look further which distribution works better for you.

Example: Hyperparameters Tuning ###############################

.. code-block:: python

from sklearn_genetic import GASearchCV from sklearn_genetic.space import Continuous, Categorical, Integer from sklearn.ensemble import RandomForestClassifier from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split, StratifiedKFold from sklearn.datasets import load_digits from sklearn.metrics import accuracy_score

data = load_digits() n_samples = len(data.images) X = data.images.reshape((n_samples, -1)) y = data['target'] X_train, X_test, y_train, y_test = train_test_split(X, y, test_size=0.33, random_state=42)

clf = RandomForestClassifier()

param_grid = {'min_weight_fraction_leaf': Continuous(0.01, 0.5, distribution='log-uniform'), 'bootstrap': Categorical([True, False]), 'max_depth': Integer(2, 30), 'max_leaf_nodes': Integer(2, 35), 'n_estimators': Integer(100, 300)}

cv = StratifiedKFold(n_splits=3, shuffle=True)

evolved_estimator = GASearchCV(estimator=clf, cv=cv, scoring='accuracy', population_size=10, generations=35, param_grid=param_grid, n_jobs=-1, verbose=True, keep_top_k=4)

Train and optimize the estimator

evolved_estimator.fit(X_train, y_train)

Best parameters found

print(evolved_estimator.best_params_)

Use the model fitted with the best parameters

y_predict_ga = evolved_estimator.predict(X_test) print(accuracy_score(y_test, y_predict_ga))

Saved metadata for further analysis

print("Stats achieved in each generation: ", evolved_estimator.history) print("Best k solutions: ", evolved_estimator.hof)

Example: Feature Selection ##########################

.. code:: python3

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
from sklearn_genetic import GAFeatureSelectionCV
from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split, StratifiedKFold
from sklearn.svm import SVC
from sklearn.datasets import load_iris
from sklearn.metrics import accuracy_score
import numpy as np

data = load_iris()
X, y = data["data"], data["target"]

# Add random non-important features
noise = np.random.uniform(0, 10, size=(X.shape[0], 5))
X = np.hstack((X, noise))

X_train, X_test, y_train, y_test = train_test_split(X, y, test_size=0.33, random_state=0)

clf = SVC(gamma='auto')

evolved_estimator = GAFeatureSelectionCV(
    estimator=clf,
    scoring="accuracy",
    population_size=30,
    generations=20,
    n_jobs=-1)

# Train and select the features
evolved_estimator.fit(X_train, y_train)

# Features selected by the algorithm
features = evolved_estimator.best_features_
print(features)

# Predict only with the subset of selected features
y_predict_ga = evolved_estimator.predict(X_test[:, features])
print(accuracy_score(y_test, y_predict_ga))
