class evalml.pipelines.components.estimators.regressors.svm_regressor.SVMRegressor(C=1.0, kernel='rbf', gamma='auto', random_seed=0, **kwargs)[source]#

Support Vector Machine Regressor.

Parameters

C (float) – The regularization parameter. The strength of the regularization is inversely proportional to C. Must be strictly positive. The penalty is a squared l2 penalty. Defaults to 1.0.
kernel ({"poly", "rbf", "sigmoid"}) – Specifies the kernel type to be used in the algorithm. Defaults to “rbf”.
gamma ({"scale", "auto"} or float) – Kernel coefficient for “rbf”, “poly” and “sigmoid”. Defaults to “auto”. - If gamma=’scale’ is passed then it uses 1 / (n_features * X.var()) as value of gamma - If “auto” (default), uses 1 / n_features
random_seed (int) – Seed for the random number generator. 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.
`feature_importance`	Feature importance of fitted SVM regresor.
`fit`	Fits estimator to data.
`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.
`predict`	Make predictions using selected features.
`predict_proba`	Make probability estimates for labels.
`save`	Saves component at file path.

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)#

Feature importance of fitted SVM regresor.

Only works with linear kernels. If the kernel isn’t linear, we return a numpy array of zeros.

Returns: The feature importance of the fitted SVM regressor, or an array of zeroes if the kernel is not linear.

fit(self, X, y=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

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.

predict(self, X)#

Make predictions using selected features.

Parameters: X (pd.DataFrame) – Data of shape [n_samples, n_features].
Returns: Predicted values.
Return type: pd.Series
Raises: MethodPropertyNotFoundError – If estimator does not have a predict method or a component_obj that implements predict.

predict_proba(self, X)#

Make probability estimates for labels.

Parameters: X (pd.DataFrame) – Features.
Returns: Probability estimates.
Return type: pd.Series
Raises: MethodPropertyNotFoundError – If estimator does not have a predict_proba method or a component_obj that implements predict_proba.

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.
