SMOTE Oversampler component. Will automatically select whether to use SMOTE, SMOTEN, or SMOTENC based on inputs to the component.
- Parameters
sampling_ratio (float) – This is the goal ratio of the minority to majority class, with range (0, 1]. A value of 0.25 means we want a 1:4 ratio of the minority to majority class after oversampling. We will create the a sampling dictionary using this ratio, with the keys corresponding to the class and the values responding to the number of samples. Defaults to 0.25.
sampling_ratio_dict (dict) – A dictionary specifying the desired balanced ratio for each target value. For instance, in a binary case where class 1 is the minority, we could specify: sampling_ratio_dict={0: 0.5, 1: 1}, which means we would undersample class 0 to have twice the number of samples as class 1 (minority:majority ratio = 0.5), and don’t sample class 1. Overrides sampling_ratio if provided. Defaults to None.
k_neighbors_default (int) – The number of nearest neighbors used to construct synthetic samples. This is the default value used, but the actual k_neighbors value might be smaller if there are less samples. Defaults to 5.
n_jobs (int) – The number of CPU cores to use. Defaults to -1.

Transformer that delays input features and target variable for time series problems.
This component uses an algorithm based on the autocorrelation values of the target variable to determine which lags to select from the set of all possible lags.
The algorithm is based on the idea that the local maxima of the autocorrelation function indicate the lags that have the most impact on the present time.
The algorithm computes the autocorrelation values and finds the local maxima, called “peaks”, that are significant at the given conf_level. Since lags in the range [0, 10] tend to be predictive but not local maxima, the union of the peaks is taken with the significant lags in the range [0, 10]. At the end, only selected lags in the range [0, max_delay] are used.
Parametrizing the algorithm by conf_level lets the AutoMLAlgorithm tune the set of lags chosen so that the chances of finding a good set of lags is higher.
Using conf_level value of 1 selects all possible lags.
- Parameters
time_index (str) – Name of the column containing the datetime information used to order the data. Ignored.
max_delay (int) – Maximum number of time units to delay each feature. Defaults to 2.
forecast_horizon (int) – The number of time periods the pipeline is expected to forecast.
conf_level (float) – Float in range (0, 1] that determines the confidence interval size used to select which lags to compute from the set of [1, max_delay]. A delay of 1 will always be computed. If 1, selects all possible lags in the set of [1, max_delay], inclusive.
rolling_window_size (float) – Float in range (0, 1] that determines the size of the window used for rolling features. Size is computed as rolling_window_size * max_delay.
delay_features (bool) – Whether to delay the input features. Defaults to True.
delay_target (bool) – Whether to delay the target. Defaults to True.
gap (int) – The number of time units between when the features are collected and when the target is collected. For example, if you are predicting the next time step’s target, gap=1. This is only needed because when gap=0, we need to be sure to start the lagging of the target variable at 1. Defaults to 1.
random_seed (int) – Seed for the random number generator. This transformer performs the same regardless of the random seed provided.

- class evalml.pipelines.components.transformers.TimeSeriesRegularizer(time_index=None, frequency_payload=None, window_length=5, threshold=0.8, random_seed=0, **kwargs)[source]#
Transformer that regularizes an inconsistently spaced datetime column.
If X is passed in to fit/transform, the column time_index will be checked for an inferrable offset frequency. If the time_index column is perfectly inferrable then this Transformer will do nothing and return the original X and y.
If X does not have a perfectly inferrable frequency but one can be estimated, then X and y will be reformatted based on the estimated frequency for time_index. In the original X and y passed: - Missing datetime values will be added and will have their corresponding columns in X and y set to None. - Duplicate datetime values will be dropped. - Extra datetime values will be dropped. - If it can be determined that a duplicate or extra value is misaligned, then it will be repositioned to take the place of a missing value.
This Transformer should be used before the TimeSeriesImputer in order to impute the missing values that were added to X and y (if passed).
- Parameters
time_index (string) – Name of the column containing the datetime information used to order the data, required. Defaults to None.
frequency_payload (tuple) – Payload returned from Woodwork’s infer_frequency function where debug is True. Defaults to None.
window_length (int) – The size of the rolling window over which inference is conducted to determine the prevalence of uninferrable frequencies.

- class evalml.pipelines.components.transformers.Transformer(parameters=None, component_obj=None, random_seed=0, **kwargs)[source]#
A component that may or may not need fitting that transforms data. These components are used before an estimator.
To implement a new Transformer, define your own class which is a subclass of Transformer, including a name and a list of acceptable ranges for any parameters to be tuned during the automl search (hyperparameters). Define an __init__ method which sets up any necessary state and objects. Make sure your __init__ only uses standard keyword arguments and calls super().__init__() with a parameters dict. You may also override the fit, transform, fit_transform and other methods in this class if appropriate.
To see some examples, check out the definitions of any Transformer component.
- Parameters
parameters (dict) – Dictionary of parameters for the component. Defaults to None.
component_obj (obj) – Third-party objects useful in component implementation. Defaults to None.

- class evalml.pipelines.components.transformers.Undersampler(sampling_ratio=0.25, sampling_ratio_dict=None, min_samples=100, min_percentage=0.1, random_seed=0, **kwargs)[source]#
Initializes an undersampling transformer to downsample the majority classes in the dataset.
This component is only run during training and not during predict.
- Parameters
sampling_ratio (float) – The smallest minority:majority ratio that is accepted as ‘balanced’. For instance, a 1:4 ratio would be represented as 0.25, while a 1:1 ratio is 1.0. Must be between 0 and 1, inclusive. Defaults to 0.25.
sampling_ratio_dict (dict) – A dictionary specifying the desired balanced ratio for each target value. For instance, in a binary case where class 1 is the minority, we could specify: sampling_ratio_dict={0: 0.5, 1: 1}, which means we would undersample class 0 to have twice the number of samples as class 1 (minority:majority ratio = 0.5), and don’t sample class 1. Overrides sampling_ratio if provided. Defaults to None.
min_samples (int) – The minimum number of samples that we must have for any class, pre or post sampling. If a class must be downsampled, it will not be downsampled past this value. To determine severe imbalance, the minority class must occur less often than this and must have a class ratio below min_percentage. Must be greater than 0. Defaults to 100.
min_percentage (float) – The minimum percentage of the minimum class to total dataset that we tolerate, as long as it is above min_samples. If min_percentage and min_samples are not met, treat this as severely imbalanced, and we will not resample the data. Must be between 0 and 0.5, inclusive. Defaults to 0.1.
random_seed (int) – The seed to use for random sampling. Defaults to 0.
- Raises
ValueError – If sampling_ratio is not in the range (0, 1].
ValueError – If min_sample is not greater than 0.
ValueError – If min_percentage is not between 0 and 0.5, inclusive.
