    • totalNumNodes

      public int totalNumNodes()
      Description copied from interface: TreeEnsembleModel
      Total number of nodes, summed over all trees in the ensemble.
      Specified by:
      totalNumNodes in interface TreeEnsembleModel<DecisionTreeRegressionModel>

    • impurity

      public final Param<String> impurity()
      Description copied from interface: HasVarianceImpurity
      Criterion used for information gain calculation (case-insensitive). This impurity type is used in DecisionTreeRegressor, RandomForestRegressor, GBTRegressor and GBTClassifier (since GBTClassificationModel is internally composed of DecisionTreeRegressionModels). Supported: "variance". (default = variance)
      Specified by:
      impurity in interface HasVarianceImpurity
      Returns:
      (undocumented)

    • numTrees

      public final IntParam numTrees()
      Description copied from interface: RandomForestParams
      Number of trees to train (at least 1). If 1, then no bootstrapping is used. If greater than 1, then bootstrapping is done. TODO: Change to always do bootstrapping (simpler). SPARK-7130 (default = 20)

      Note: The reason that we cannot add this to both GBT and RF (i.e. in TreeEnsembleParams) is the param maxIter controls how many trees a GBT has. The semantics in the algorithms are a bit different.

      Specified by:
      numTrees in interface RandomForestParams
      Returns:
      (undocumented)

    • bootstrap

      public final BooleanParam bootstrap()

      Specified by:
      subsamplingRate in interface TreeEnsembleParams
      Returns:

    • featureSubsetStrategy

      public final Param<String> featureSubsetStrategy()
      Description copied from interface: TreeEnsembleParams
      The number of features to consider for splits at each tree node. Supported options: - "auto": Choose automatically for task: If numTrees == 1, set to "all." If numTrees greater than 1 (forest), set to "sqrt" for classification and to "onethird" for regression. - "all": use all features - "onethird": use 1/3 of the features - "sqrt": use sqrt(number of features) - "log2": use log2(number of features) - "n": when n is in the range (0, 1.0], use n * number of features. When n is in the range (1, number of features), use n features. (default = "auto")

      These various settings are based on the following references: - log2: tested in Breiman (2001) - sqrt: recommended by Breiman manual for random forests - The defaults of sqrt (classification) and onethird (regression) match the R randomForest package.
