Class CrossValidator

All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable, org.apache.spark.internal.Logging, Params, HasCollectSubModels, HasParallelism, HasSeed, CrossValidatorParams, ValidatorParams, Identifiable, MLWritable

public class CrossValidator extends Estimator<CrossValidatorModel> implements CrossValidatorParams, HasParallelism, HasCollectSubModels, MLWritable, org.apache.spark.internal.Logging
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.

    • collectSubModels

      public final BooleanParam collectSubModels()
      Description copied from interface: HasCollectSubModels
      Param for whether to collect a list of sub-models trained during tuning. If set to false, then only the single best sub-model will be available after fitting. If set to true, then all sub-models will be available. Warning: For large models, collecting all sub-models can cause OOMs on the Spark driver.
      Specified by:
      collectSubModels in interface HasCollectSubModels
      Returns:
      (undocumented)
    • parallelism

      public IntParam parallelism()
      Description copied from interface: HasParallelism
      The number of threads to use when running parallel algorithms. Default is 1 for serial execution

      Returns:
      (undocumented)
    • numFolds

      public IntParam numFolds()
      Description copied from interface: CrossValidatorParams
      Param for number of folds for cross validation. Must be &gt;= 2. Default: 3

      Specified by:
      numFolds in interface CrossValidatorParams
      Returns:
      (undocumented)
    • foldCol

      public Param<String> foldCol()
      Description copied from interface: CrossValidatorParams
      Param for the column name of user specified fold number. Once this is specified, CrossValidator won't do random k-fold split. Note that this column should be integer type with range [0, numFolds) and Spark will throw exception on out-of-range fold numbers.

      (undocumented)

      (undocumented)
    • setCollectSubModels

      public CrossValidator setCollectSubModels(boolean value)
      Whether to collect submodels when fitting. If set, we can get submodels from the returned model.

      Note: If set this param, when you save the returned model, you can set an option "persistSubModels" to be "true" before saving, in order to save these submodels. You can check documents of CrossValidatorModel.CrossValidatorModelWriter for more information.

      Parameters:
      value - (undocumented)

      (undocumented)
    • fit

      public CrossValidatorModel fit(Dataset<?> dataset)
      Description copied from class: Estimator
      Fits a model to the input data.
      Specified by:
      fit in class Estimator<CrossValidatorModel>
      Parameters:
      dataset - (undocumented)
      Returns:
      (undocumented)
    • transformSchema

      public StructType transformSchema(StructType schema)
      Description copied from class: PipelineStage
      Check transform validity and derive the output schema from the input schema.

      We check validity for interactions between parameters during transformSchema and raise an exception if any parameter value is invalid. Parameter value checks which do not depend on other parameters are handled by Param.validate().

      Typical implementation should first conduct verification on schema change and parameter validity, including complex parameter interaction checks.

      Specified by:
      transformSchema in class PipelineStage
      Parameters:
      schema - (undocumented)
      Returns:
      (undocumented)
