Extra Trees Regressor.

Parameters
  • n_estimators (float) – The number of trees in the forest. Defaults to 100.

  • max_features (int, float or {"sqrt", "log2"}) –

    The number of features to consider when looking for the best split:

    • If int, then consider max_features features at each split.

    • If float, then max_features is a fraction and int(max_features * n_features) features are considered at each split.

    • If “sqrt”, then max_features=sqrt(n_features).

    • If “log2”, then max_features=log2(n_features).

    • If None, then max_features = n_features.

    The search for a split does not stop until at least one valid partition of the node samples is found, even if it requires to effectively inspect more than max_features features.

  • max_depth (int) – The maximum depth of the tree. Defaults to 6.

  • min_samples_split (int or float) –

    The minimum number of samples required to split an internal node:

    • If int, then consider min_samples_split as the minimum number.

    • If float, then min_samples_split is a fraction and ceil(min_samples_split * n_samples) are the minimum number of samples for each split.

  • 2. (Defaults to) –

  • min_weight_fraction_leaf (float) – The minimum weighted fraction of the sum total of weights (of all the input samples) required to be at a leaf node. Defaults to 0.0.

  • n_jobs (int or None) – Number of jobs to run in parallel. -1 uses all processes. Defaults to -1.

  • random_seed (int) – Seed for the random number generator. Defaults to 0.

Fits estimator to data.

get_prediction_intervals

Find the prediction intervals using the fitted ExtraTreesRegressor.

load

Loads component at file path.

needs_fitting

Returns boolean determining if component needs fitting before calling predict, predict_proba, transform, or feature_importances.

clone(self)#

Constructs a new component with the same parameters and random state.

Returns

A new instance of this component with identical parameters and random state.

default_parameters(cls)#

Returns the default parameters for this component.

Our convention is that Component.default_parameters == Component().parameters.

Returns

Default parameters for this component.

Return type

dict

describe(self, print_name=False, return_dict=False)#

Describe a component and its parameters.

Parameters
  • print_name (bool, optional) – whether to print name of component

  • return_dict (bool, optional) – whether to return description as dictionary in the format {“name”: name, “parameters”: parameters}

Returns

Returns dictionary if return_dict is True, else None.

Return type

None or dict

property feature_importance(self) pandas.Series#

Returns importance associated with each feature.

Returns

Importance associated with each feature.

Return type

np.ndarray

Raises

MethodPropertyNotFoundError – If estimator does not have a feature_importance method or a component_obj that implements feature_importance.

fit(self, X: pandas.DataFrame, y: Optional[pandas.Series] = None)#

Fits estimator to data.

Parameters
  • X (pd.DataFrame) – The input training data of shape [n_samples, n_features].

  • y (pd.Series, optional) – The target training data of length [n_samples].

Returns

self

get_prediction_intervals(self, X: pandas.DataFrame, y: Optional[pandas.Series] = None, coverage: List[float] = None, predictions: pandas.Series = None) Dict[str, pandas.Series][source]#

Find the prediction intervals using the fitted ExtraTreesRegressor.

Parameters
  • X (pd.DataFrame) – Data of shape [n_samples, n_features].
