RegressorPipeline

RegressorPipeline

class RegressorPipeline(regressor, transformers)[source]

Pipeline of transformers and a regressor.

The RegressorPipeline compositor chains transformers and a single regressor. The pipeline is constructed with a list of sktime transformers, plus a regressor,

i.e., estimators following the BaseTransformer resp BaseRegressor interface.

The transformer list can be unnamed - a simple list of transformers -

or string named - a list of pairs of string, estimator.

For a list of transformers trafo1, trafo2, …, trafoN and a regressor reg,

the pipeline behaves as follows:

fit(X, y) - changes styte by running trafo1.fit_transform on X,

them trafo2.fit_transform on the output of trafo1.fit_transform, etc sequentially, with trafo[i] receiving the output of trafo[i-1], and then running reg.fit with X being the output of trafo[N], and y identical with the input to self.fit

predict(X) - result is of executing trafo1.transform, trafo2.transform, etc

with trafo[i].transform input = output of trafo[i-1].transform, then running reg.predict on the output of trafoN.transform, and returning the output of reg.predict

get_params, set_params uses sklearn compatible nesting interface

if list is unnamed, names are generated as names of classes if names are non-unique, f”_{str(i)}” is appended to each name string

where i is the total count of occurrence of a non-unique string inside the list of names leading up to it (inclusive)

RegressorPipeline can also be created by using the magic multiplication

on any regressor, i.e., if my_reg inherits from BaseRegressor,

and my_trafo1, my_trafo2 inherit from BaseTransformer, then, for instance, my_trafo1 * my_trafo2 * my_reg will result in the same object as obtained from the constructor RegressorPipeline(regressor=my_reg, transformers=[my_trafo1, my_trafo2])

magic multiplication can also be used with (str, transformer) pairs,

as long as one element in the chain is a transformer

Parameters:

regressorsktime regressor, i.e., estimator inheriting from BaseRegressor

this is a “blueprint” regressor, state does not change when fit is called

transformerslist of sktime transformers, or

list of tuples (str, transformer) of sktime transformers these are “blueprint” transformers, states do not change when fit is called

Attributes:

regressor_sktime regressor, clone of regressor in regressor

this clone is fitted in the pipeline when fit is called

transformers_list of tuples (str, transformer) of sktime transformers

clones of transformers in transformers which are fitted in the pipeline is always in (str, transformer) format, even if transformers is just a list strings not passed in transformers are unique generated strings i-th transformer in transformers_ is clone of i-th in transformers

Examples

>>> from sktime.transformations.pca import PCATransformer
>>> from sktime.datasets import load_unit_test
>>> from sktime.regression.compose import RegressorPipeline
>>> from sktime.regression.distance_based import KNeighborsTimeSeriesRegressor
>>> X_train, y_train = load_unit_test(split="train")
>>> X_test, y_test = load_unit_test(split="test")
>>> pipeline = RegressorPipeline(
...     KNeighborsTimeSeriesRegressor(n_neighbors=2), [PCATransformer()]
... )
>>> pipeline.fit(X_train, y_train)
RegressorPipeline(...)
>>> y_pred = pipeline.predict(X_test)

Alternative construction via dunder method:

>>> pipeline = PCATransformer() * KNeighborsTimeSeriesRegressor(n_neighbors=2)
