ParamFitterPipeline#

class ParamFitterPipeline(param_est, transformers)[source]#

Pipeline of transformers and a parameter estimator.

The ParamFitterPipeline compositor chains transformers and a single estimator. The pipeline is constructed with a list of sktime transformers, plus an estimator,

i.e., estimators following the BaseTransformer, ParamFitterPipeline interfaces.

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 an estimator est,

the pipeline behaves as follows:

fit(X) - changes state 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 est.fit with X being the output of trafo[N]

update(X) - changes state by running trafo1.update.transform on X,

them trafo2.update.transform on the output of trafo1.update.transform, etc sequentially, with trafo[i] receiving the output of trafo[i-1], and then running est.update with X being the output of trafo[N]

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)

ParamFitterPipeline can also be created by using the magic multiplication

on any parameter estimator, i.e., if est inherits from BaseParamFitter,: and my_trafo1, my_trafo2 inherit from BaseTransformer, then, for instance, my_trafo1 * my_trafo2 * est will result in the same object as obtained from the constructor ParamFitterPipeline(param_est=est, 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:

param_estparameter estimator, i.e., estimator inheriting from BaseParamFitter: this is a “blueprint” estimator, 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:

param_est_sktime estimator, clone of estimator in param_est: 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.param_est.compose import ParamFitterPipeline
>>> from sktime.param_est.seasonality import SeasonalityACF
>>> from sktime.transformations.series.difference import Differencer
>>> from sktime.datasets import load_airline
>>>
>>> X = load_airline()
>>> pipe = ParamFitterPipeline(SeasonalityACF(), [Differencer()])  
>>> pipe.fit(X)  
ParamFitterPipeline(...)
>>> pipe.get_fitted_params()["sp"]  
12

Alternative construction via dunder method:

>>> pipe = Differencer() * SeasonalityACF()

get_params(deep=True)[source]#

Get parameters of estimator in transformers.

Parameters:

deepboolean, optional, default=True: If True, will return the parameters for this estimator and contained sub-objects that are estimators.

Returns:

paramsmapping of string to any: Parameter names mapped to their values.

set_params(**kwargs)[source]#

Set the parameters of estimator in transformers.

Valid parameter keys can be listed with get_params().

Returns:

selfreturns an instance of self.

check_is_fitted(method_name=None)[source]#

Check if the estimator has been fitted.

Check if _is_fitted attribute is present and True. The is_fitted attribute should be set to True in calls to an object’s fit method.

If not, raises a NotFittedError.

Parameters:

method_namestr, optional: Name of the method that called this function. If provided, the error message will include this information.

Raises:

NotFittedError: If the estimator has not been fitted yet.

clone()[source]#

Obtain a clone of the object with same hyper-parameters and config.

A clone is a different object without shared references, in post-init state. This function is equivalent to returning sklearn.clone of self.

Equivalent to constructing a new instance of type(self), with parameters of self, that is, type(self)(**self.get_params(deep=False)).

If configs were set on self, the clone will also have the same configs as the original, equivalent to calling cloned_self.set_config(**self.get_config()).

Also equivalent in value to a call of self.reset, with the exception that clone returns a new object, instead of mutating self like reset.

Raises:

RuntimeError if the clone is non-conforming, due to faulty __init__.

clone_tags(estimator, tag_names=None)[source]#

Clone tags from another object as dynamic override.

Every scikit-base compatible object has a dictionary of tags. Tags may be used to store metadata about the object, or to control behaviour of the object.

Tags are key-value pairs specific to an instance self, they are static flags that are not changed after construction of the object.

clone_tags sets dynamic tag overrides from another object, estimator.

The clone_tags method should be called only in the __init__ method of an object, during construction, or directly after construction via __init__.

The dynamic tags are set to the values of the tags in estimator, with the names specified in tag_names.

The default of tag_names writes all tags from estimator to self.

Current tag values can be inspected by get_tags or get_tag.

Parameters:

estimatorAn instance of :class:BaseObject or derived class
tag_namesstr or list of str, default = None: Names of tags to clone. The default (None) clones all tags from estimator.

Returns:

self: Reference to self.

classmethod get_class_tag(tag_name, tag_value_default=None)[source]#

Get class tag value from class, with tag level inheritance from parents.

Every scikit-base compatible object has a dictionary of tags. Tags may be used to store metadata about the object, or to control behaviour of the object.

Tags are key-value pairs specific to an instance self, they are static flags that are not changed after construction of the object.

The get_class_tag method is a class method, and retrieves the value of a tag taking into account only class-level tag values and overrides.

It returns the value of the tag with name tag_name from the object, taking into account tag overrides, in the following order of descending priority:

Tags set in the _tags attribute of the class.
Tags set in the _tags attribute of parent classes,

in order of inheritance.

Parameters:

parameter_setstr, default=”default”: Name of the set of test parameters to return, for use in tests. If no special parameters are defined for a value, will return "default" set.

Returns:

paramsdict or list of dict, default={}: Parameters to create testing instances of the class. Each dict are parameters to construct an “interesting” test instance, i.e., MyClass(**params) or MyClass(**params[i]) creates a valid test instance. create_test_instance uses the first (or only) dictionary in params.

A composite object is an object which contains objects, as parameters. Called on an instance, since this may differ by instance.

Returns:

composite: bool, whether self contains a parameter which is BaseObject

deserialized self resulting in output serial, of cls.save(None)

reset()[source]#

Reset the object to a clean post-init state.

Results in setting self to the state it had directly after the constructor call, with the same hyper-parameters. Config values set by set_config are also retained.

A reset call deletes any object attributes, except:

hyper-parameters = arguments of __init__ written to self, e.g., self.paramname where paramname is an argument of __init__
object attributes containing double-underscores, i.e., the string “__”. For instance, an attribute named “__myattr” is retained.
config attributes, configs are retained without change. That is, results of get_config before and after reset are equal.

Class and object methods, and class attributes are also unaffected.

Equivalent to clone, with the exception that reset mutates self instead of returning a new object.

After a self.reset() call, self is equal in value and state, to the object obtained after a constructor call``type(self)(**self.get_params(deep=False))``.

Returns:

self: Instance of class reset to a clean post-init state but retaining the current hyper-parameter values.

save(path=None, serialization_format='pickle')[source]#

Save serialized self to bytes-like object or to (.zip) file.

Behaviour: if path is None, returns an in-memory serialized self if path is a file location, stores self at that location as a zip file

saved files are zip files with following contents: _metadata - contains class of self, i.e., type(self) _obj - serialized self. This class uses the default serialization (pickle).

Parameters:

pathNone or file location (str or Path)

if None, self is saved to an in-memory object if file location, self is saved to that file location. If:

path=”estimator” then a zip file estimator.zip will be made at cwd.
path=”/home/stored/estimator” then a zip file estimator.zip will be

stored in /home/stored/.

serialization_format: str, default = “pickle”

Module to use for serialization. The available options are “pickle” and “cloudpickle”. Note that non-default formats might require installation of other soft dependencies.

Returns:

if path is None - in-memory serialized self
if path is file location - ZipFile with reference to the file

set_config(**config_dict)[source]#

Set config flags to given values.

Parameters:

config_dictdict

Dictionary of config name : config value pairs. Valid configs, values, and their meaning is listed below:

displaystr, “diagram” (default), or “text”

how jupyter kernels display instances of self

“diagram” = html box diagram representation
“text” = string printout

print_changed_onlybool, default=True

whether printing of self lists only self-parameters that differ from defaults (False), or all parameter names and values (False). Does not nest, i.e., only affects self and not component estimators.

warningsstr, “on” (default), or “off”

whether to raise warnings, affects warnings from sktime only

“on” = will raise warnings from sktime
“off” = will not raise warnings from sktime

backend:parallelstr, optional, default=”None”

backend to use for parallelization when broadcasting/vectorizing, one of

“None”: executes loop sequentally, simple list comprehension
“loky”, “multiprocessing” and “threading”: uses joblib.Parallel
“joblib”: custom and 3rd party joblib backends, e.g., spark
“dask”: uses dask, requires dask package in environment

backend:parallel:paramsdict, optional, default={} (no parameters passed)

additional parameters passed to the parallelization backend as config. Valid keys depend on the value of backend:parallel:

“None”: no additional parameters, backend_params is ignored
“loky”, “multiprocessing” and “threading”: default joblib backends any valid keys for joblib.Parallel can be passed here, e.g., n_jobs, with the exception of backend which is directly controlled by backend. If n_jobs is not passed, it will default to -1, other parameters will default to joblib defaults.
“joblib”: custom and 3rd party joblib backends, e.g., spark. Any valid keys for joblib.Parallel can be passed here, e.g., n_jobs, backend must be passed as a key of backend_params in this case. If n_jobs is not passed, it will default to -1, other parameters will default to joblib defaults.
“dask”: any valid keys for dask.compute can be passed, e.g., scheduler

Returns:

selfreference to self.

Notes

Changes object state, copies configs in config_dict to self._config_dynamic.

set_random_state(random_state=None, deep=True, self_policy='copy')[source]#

Set random_state pseudo-random seed parameters for self.

Finds random_state named parameters via self.get_params, and sets them to integers derived from random_state via set_params. These integers are sampled from chain hashing via sample_dependent_seed, and guarantee pseudo-random independence of seeded random generators.

Applies to random_state parameters in self, depending on self_policy, and remaining component objects if and only if deep=True.

Note: calls set_params even if self does not have a random_state, or none of the components have a random_state parameter. Therefore, set_random_state will reset any scikit-base object, even those without a random_state parameter.

Parameters:

random_stateint, RandomState instance or None, default=None

Pseudo-random number generator to control the generation of the random integers. Pass int for reproducible output across multiple function calls.

deepbool, default=True

Whether to set the random state in skbase object valued parameters, i.e., component estimators.

If False, will set only self’s random_state parameter, if exists.
If True, will set random_state parameters in component objects as well.

self_policystr, one of {“copy”, “keep”, “new”}, default=”copy”

“copy” : self.random_state is set to input random_state
“keep” : self.random_state is kept as is
“new” : self.random_state is set to a new random state,

derived from input random_state, and in general different from it

Returns:

selfreference to self

set_tags(**tag_dict)[source]#

Set instance level tag overrides to given values.

Every scikit-base compatible object has a dictionary of tags. Tags may be used to store metadata about the object, or to control behaviour of the object.

Tags are key-value pairs specific to an instance self, they are static flags that are not changed after construction of the object.

set_tags sets dynamic tag overrides to the values as specified in tag_dict, with keys being the tag name, and dict values being the value to set the tag to.

The set_tags method should be called only in the __init__ method of an object, during construction, or directly after construction via __init__.

Current tag values can be inspected by get_tags or get_tag.

Parameters:

**tag_dictdict: Dictionary of tag name: tag value pairs.

Returns:

Self: Reference to self.
