CrossValidator

class pyspark.ml.tuning.CrossValidator(*, estimator=None, estimatorParamMaps=None, evaluator=None, numFolds=3, seed=None, parallelism=1, collectSubModels=False, foldCol='')[source]

K-fold cross validation performs model selection by splitting the dataset into a set of non-overlapping randomly partitioned folds which are used as separate training and test datasets e.g., with k=3 folds, K-fold cross validation will generate 3 (training, test) dataset pairs, each of which uses 2/3 of the data for training and 1/3 for testing. Each fold is used as the test set exactly once.

New in version 1.4.0.

Methods

clear(param)

Clears a param from the param map if it has been explicitly set.

copy([extra])

Creates a copy of this instance with a randomly generated uid and some extra params.

explainParams()

extractParamMap([extra])

Extracts the embedded default param values and user-supplied values, and then merges them with extra values from input into a flat param map, where the latter value is used if there exist conflicts, i.e., with ordering: default param values < user-supplied values < extra.

Methods Documentation

clear(param)

Clears a param from the param map if it has been explicitly set.

copy(extra=None)[source]

Creates a copy of this instance with a randomly generated uid and some extra params. This copies creates a deep copy of the embedded paramMap, and copies the embedded and extra parameters over.

New in version 1.4.0.

Parameters
extradict, optional

Extra parameters to copy to the new instance

Returns
CrossValidator

Copy of this instance

explainParam(param)

Explains a single param and returns its name, doc, and optional default value and user-supplied value in a string.

explainParams()

Returns the documentation of all params with their optionally default values and user-supplied values.

extractParamMap(extra=None)

Extracts the embedded default param values and user-supplied values, and then merges them with extra values from input into a flat param map, where the latter value is used if there exist conflicts, i.e., with ordering: default param values < user-supplied values < extra.

Parameters
extradict, optional

extra param values

Returns
dict

merged param map

fit(dataset, params=None)

Fits a model to the input dataset with optional parameters.

Parameters
datasetpyspark.sql.DataFrame

input dataset.

paramsdict or list or tuple, optional

an optional param map that overrides embedded params. If a list/tuple of param maps is given, this calls fit on each param map and returns a list of models.
