quality_measure module¶
Measuring the quality of a machine learning algorithm.
- class gemseo.mlearning.qual_measure.quality_measure.MLQualityMeasure(algo, fit_transformers=False)[source]¶
Bases:
object
An abstract quality measure to assess a machine learning algorithm.
This measure can be minimized (e.g.
MSEMeasure
) or maximized (e.g.R2Measure
).It can be evaluated from the learning dataset, from a test dataset or using resampling techniques such as boostrap, cross-validation or leave-one-out.
The machine learning algorithm is usually trained. If not but required by the evaluation technique, the quality measure will train it.
Lastly, the transformers of the algorithm fitted from the learning dataset can be used as is by the resampling methods or re-fitted for each algorithm trained on a subset of the learning dataset.
- Parameters
algo (gemseo.mlearning.core.ml_algo.MLAlgo) – A machine learning algorithm.
fit_transformers (bool) –
Whether to re-fit the transformers when using resampling techniques. If
False
, use the transformers of the algorithm fitted from the whole learning dataset.By default it is set to False.
- Return type
None
- evaluate(method='learn', samples=None, **options)[source]¶
Evaluate the quality measure.
- Parameters
method (str) –
The name of the method to evaluate the quality measure.
By default it is set to learn.
samples (Sequence[int] | None) –
The indices of the learning samples. If
None
, use the whole learning dataset.By default it is set to None.
**options (OptionType | None) – The options of the estimation method (e.g.
test_data
for the test method,n_replicates
for the bootstrap one, …).
- Returns
The value of the quality measure.
- Raises
ValueError – When the name of the method is unknown.
- Return type
float | ndarray
- evaluate_bootstrap(n_replicates=100, samples=None, multioutput=True, seed=None)[source]¶

- Parameters
n_replicates (int) –
The number of bootstrap replicates.
By default it is set to 100.
samples (Sequence[int] | None) –
The indices of the learning samples. If
None
, use the whole learning dataset.By default it is set to None.
multioutput (bool) –
If
True
, return the quality measure for each output component. Otherwise, average these measures.By default it is set to True.
seed (int | None) –
The seed of the pseudo-random number generator. If
None
, then an unpredictable generator will be used.By default it is set to None.
- Returns
The value of the quality measure.
- Return type
NoReturn
- evaluate_kfolds(n_folds=5, samples=None, multioutput=True, randomize=False, seed=None)[source]¶
Evaluate the quality measure using the k-folds technique.
- Parameters
n_folds (int) –
The number of folds.
By default it is set to 5.
samples (Sequence[int] | None) –
The indices of the learning samples. If
None
, use the whole learning dataset.By default it is set to None.
multioutput (bool) –
If
True
, return the quality measure for each output component. Otherwise, average these measures.By default it is set to True.
randomize (bool) –
Whether to shuffle the samples before dividing them in folds.
By default it is set to False.
seed (int | None) –
The seed of the pseudo-random number generator. If
None
, then an unpredictable generator will be used.By default it is set to None.
- Returns
The value of the quality measure.
- Return type
NoReturn
- evaluate_learn(samples=None, multioutput=True)[source]¶
Evaluate the quality measure from the learning dataset.
- Parameters
- Returns
The value of the quality measure.
- Return type
NoReturn
- evaluate_loo(samples=None, multioutput=True)[source]¶
Evaluate the quality measure using the leave-one-out technique.
- Parameters
- Returns
The value of the quality measure.
- Return type
float | ndarray
- evaluate_test(test_data, samples=None, multioutput=True)[source]¶
Evaluate the quality measure using a test dataset.
- Parameters
test_data (Dataset) – The test dataset.
samples (Sequence[int] | None) –
The indices of the learning samples. If
None
, use the whole learning dataset.By default it is set to None.
multioutput (bool) –
If
True
, return the quality measure for each output component. Otherwise, average these measures.By default it is set to True.
- Returns
The value of the quality measure.
- Return type
NoReturn
- classmethod is_better(val1, val2)[source]¶
Compare the quality between two values.
This methods returns
True
if the first one is better than the second one.For most measures, a smaller value is “better” than a larger one (MSE etc.). But for some, like an R2-measure, higher values are better than smaller ones. This comparison method correctly handles this, regardless of the type of measure.
- BOOTSTRAP: ClassVar[str] = 'bootstrap'¶
The name of the method to evaluate the measure by bootstrap.
- KFOLDS: ClassVar[str] = 'kfolds'¶
The name of the method to evaluate the measure by cross-validation.
- LEARN: ClassVar[str] = 'learn'¶
The name of the method to evaluate the measure on the learning dataset.
- algo: gemseo.mlearning.core.ml_algo.MLAlgo¶
The machine learning algorithm usually trained.
