class evalml.pipelines.components.transformers.preprocessing.drop_rows_transformer.DropRowsTransformer(indices_to_drop=None, random_seed=0)[source]

Transformer to drop rows specified by row indices.

Parameters
  • indices_to_drop (list) – List of indices to drop in the input data. Defaults to None.

  • random_seed (int) – Seed for the random number generator. Is not used by this component. Defaults to 0.

Methods

clone

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

default_parameters

Returns the default parameters for this component.

describe

Describe a component and its parameters.

fit

Fits component to data.

fit_transform

Fits on X and transforms X.

load

Loads component at file path.

needs_fitting

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

parameters

Returns the parameters which were used to initialize the component.

save

Saves component at file path.

transform

Transforms data using fitted component.

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

fit(self, X, y=None)[source]

Fits component 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

Raises

ValueError – If indices to drop do not exist in input features or target.

fit_transform(self, X, y=None)

Fits on X and transforms X.

Parameters
  • X (pd.DataFrame) – Data to fit and transform.

  • y (pd.Series) – Target data.

Returns

Transformed X.

Return type

pd.DataFrame

Raises

MethodPropertyNotFoundError – If transformer does not have a transform method or a component_obj that implements transform.

static load(file_path)

Loads component at file path.

Parameters

file_path (str) – Location to load file.

Returns

ComponentBase object

needs_fitting(self)

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

This can be overridden to False for components that do not need to be fit or whose fit methods do nothing.

Returns

True.

property parameters(self)

Returns the parameters which were used to initialize the component.

save(self, file_path, pickle_protocol=cloudpickle.DEFAULT_PROTOCOL)

Saves component at file path.

Parameters
  • file_path (str) – Location to save file.

  • pickle_protocol (int) – The pickle data stream format.

transform(self, X, y=None)[source]

Transforms data using fitted component.

Parameters
  • X (pd.DataFrame) – Features.

  • y (pd.Series, optional) – Target data.

Returns

Data with row indices dropped.

Return type

(pd.DataFrame, pd.Series)
