"""LightGBM Regressor.
Args:
boosting_type (string): Type of boosting to use. Defaults to "gbdt".
- 'gbdt' uses traditional Gradient Boosting Decision Tree
- "dart", uses Dropouts meet Multiple Additive Regression Trees
- "goss", uses Gradient-based One-Side Sampling
- "rf", uses Random Forest
learning_rate (float): Boosting learning rate. Defaults to 0.1.
n_estimators (int): Number of boosted trees to fit. Defaults to 100.
max_depth (int): Maximum tree depth for base learners, <=0 means no limit. Defaults to 0.
num_leaves (int): Maximum tree leaves for base learners. Defaults to 31.
min_child_samples (int): Minimum number of data needed in a child (leaf). Defaults to 20.
bagging_fraction (float): LightGBM will randomly select a subset of features on each iteration (tree) without resampling if this is smaller than 1.0.
For example, if set to 0.8, LightGBM will select 80% of features before training each tree.
This can be used to speed up training and deal with overfitting. Defaults to 0.9.
bagging_freq (int): Frequency for bagging. 0 means bagging is disabled.
k means perform bagging at every k iteration.
Every k-th iteration, LightGBM will randomly select bagging_fraction * 100 % of
the data to use for the next k iterations. Defaults to 0.
n_jobs (int or None): Number of threads to run in parallel. -1 uses all threads. Defaults to -1.
random_seed (int): Seed for the random number generator. Defaults to 0.
