Python Scientific Lecture Notes

Scikit Learn is based on Python

especially on NumPy, SciPy, and matplotlib

which are packages for scientific computing in Python

Basics on Python and on scientific computing

Downloading and Installing

Requires:

Python (≥2.6 or ≥3.3)

NumPy (≥ 1.6.1)

SciPy (≥ 0.9)

http://scikit-learn.org/stable/install.html

Outline

Today we are going to learn how to:

Load and generate datasets

Split a dataset for cross-validation

Use some learning algorithmsI Naive BayesI SVMI Random forest

Evalute the performance of the algorithmsI AccuracyI F1-scoreI AUC ROC

Datasets

The sklearn.datasets module includes utilities to load datasets

Load and fetch popular reference datasets (e.g. Iris)

http://scikit-learn.org/stable/modules/generated/sklearn.datasets.load_iris.html

Artificial data generators (e.g. binary classification)

http://scikit-learn.org/stable/modules/generated/sklearn.datasets.make_classification.html

Now inspect the data structures

Cross-validation

k-fold cross-validation

Split the dataset D in k equal sized disjoint subsets Di

For i ∈ [1, k]I train the predictor on Ti = D \ Di

I compute the score of the predictor on the test set Di

Return the average score accross the folds

Cross-validation

The sklearn.cross validation module includes utilities forcross-validation and performance evaluation

e.g. k-fold cross validation

http://scikit-learn.org/stable/modules/generated/sklearn.cross_validation.KFold.html

Now inspect the data structures

Naive Bayes

Hint

Attribute values are assumed independent of each other

P(a1, . . . , am|yi ) =m∏j=1

P(aj |yi )

Definition

y∗ = argmaxyi

m∏j=1

P(aj |yi )P(yi )

Naive Bayes

The sklearn.naive bayes module implements naive Bayesalgorithms

e.g. Gaussian naive Bayes

SVM

Hint

Hint

The sklearn.svm module includes Support Vector Machinealgorithms

e.g. Support-C Vector Classification

http://scikit-learn.org/stable/modules/generated/sklearn.svm.SVC.html

Now inspect the data structures

Random Forest

Hint

Random Forest

The sklearn.ensemble module includes ensemble-based methodsfor classification and regression

e.g. Random Forest Classifier

http://scikit-learn.org/stable/modules/generated/sklearn.ensemble.RandomForestClassifier.html

Now inspect the data structures

Performance evaluation

The sklearn.metrics module includes score functions, performancemetrics and pairwise metrics and distance computations.

e.g. accuracy, F1-score, AUC ROC

Choosing parameters

Some algorithms have parameters

e.g. parameter C for SVM, number of trees for Random Forest

Performance can significantly vary according to the chosen parameters

It is important to choose wisely

train, VALIDATION, test

Choosing parameters e.g. SVMnp.argmax requires to add import numpy as np

Summary

sklearn allows to:

load and generate datasets

split them to perform cross-validation

easily apply learning algorithms

evaluate the performace of such algorithms

G. Corrado (disi) sklearn Machine Learning 19 / 22

Assignment

The second ML assignment is to compare the performance of threedifferent classification algorithms, namely Naive Bayes, SVM, and RandomForest.For this assignment you need to generate a random binary classificationproblem, and train (using 10-fold cross validation) the three differentalgorithms. For some algorithms inner cross validation (5-fold) for choosingthe parameters is needed. Then, show the classification performace(per-fold and averaged) in the report, briefly discussing the results.

Note

The report has to contain also a short description of the methodology usedto obtain the results.
