GridSearchCV does not return training score

[CBongiova]

Hi,

I am trying to return the training score through GridSearchCV. Having a look at the ScikitLearn documentation I saw I should be normally be able to pass an input "return_train_score=true". However, when I try it in Julia, I get a method error.

grid_search = GridSearchCV(clf, param_grid,return_train_score=true)

Does anyone know how to retrieve train scores correctly? Thanks!

Could you please post the error message? Some minimal code that demonstrates the issue would be appreciated as well!

@cstjean Thanks for replying

The code is actually pretty straight-forward (I took an example from the scikitlearn website):

`############# Grid search clf=RandomForestClassifier(n_estimators=100,class_weight="balanced_subsample",criterion="entropy",max_depth=30)

Utility function to report best scores

function report(grid_scores, n_top=3) top_scores = sort(grid_scores, by=x->x.mean_validation_score, rev=true)[1:n_top] for (i, score) in enumerate(top_scores) println("Model with rank:$i") @printf("Mean validation score: %.3f (std: %.3f)\n", score.mean_validation_score, std(score.cv_validation_scores)) println("Parameters: $(score.parameters)") println("") end end

use a full grid over all parameters

param_grid = Dict("max_features"=> [1, 6, 12], "min_samples_leaf"=> [1, 5, 10], "min_impurity_decrease" => [0,0.1,0.3], "min_samples_split"=> [2, 5, 10] )

run grid search

grid_search = GridSearchCV(clf, param_grid,return_train_score=true)

start = @elapsed begin fit!(grid_search, features_new, labels_new) end println("GridSearchCV took $start seconds")

report(grid_search.gridscores)`

I guess you can use the dataset from https://scikitlearnjl.readthedocs.io/en/latest/quickstart/ for testing.

The error message is :

Thank you for the bug report. My best guess is that return_train_score is a "new" parameter. ScikitLearn unfortunately lags behind scikit-learn python by a few years. I don't have time to look into it at the moment, but if you would like to make a pull request implementing it, it will be appreciated!

Probably you should try GridSearchCV(return_train_score=True), with the T capital. Since, it takes an boolean input so, that is why the small case letter 't' is not working.

[CBongiova]

@Rohp001 I don't think this is the issue, the capital "T" is for python syntax. Julia's syntax uses lower-case "t" for boolean true.

[Rohp001]

Oh, sorry, I didn't saw the language you were using. My bad!!!
