How to display html representation of a meta-estimator in a jupyter notebook.

  • String name: "visual_block_kind"

  • Extension developer tag

  • Values: string, one of "single", "serial", "parallel"

  • Example: "single"

  • Default: "single"

This tag specifies how to display the html representation of a meta-estimator in a jupyter notebook.

Meta-estimators are composites with a variable number of sub-estimators, such as ForecastingPipeline or ColumnTransformer, inheriting from _HeterogenousMetaEstimator.

The html display is triggered by calling the _repr_html_ method on any scikit-base estimator, which returns a html representation of the estimator, used by default in jupyter notebooks, or also other html display environments.

Possible values are:

  • "single": the meta-estimator is displayed as a single block in the notebook.

  • "serial": the meta-estimator is displayed as a series of blocks, one for each sub-estimator, in a serial layout, i.e., as a vertical stack.

  • "parallel": the meta-estimator is displayed as a series of blocks, one for each sub-estimator, in a parallel layout, i.e., as a horizontal stack.
