sklearn.utils.testing.all_estimators

sklearn.utils.testing.all_estimators(include_meta_estimators=None, include_other=None, type_filter=None, include_dont_test=None)[source]

Get a list of all estimators from sklearn.

This function crawls the module and gets all classes that inherit from BaseEstimator. Classes that are defined in test-modules are not included. By default meta_estimators such as GridSearchCV are also not included.

Parameters:
include_meta_estimators : boolean, default=False

Deprecated, ignored. .. deprecated:: 0.21

include_meta_estimators has been deprecated and has no effect in 0.21 and will be removed in 0.23.

include_other : boolean, default=False

Deprecated, ignored. .. deprecated:: 0.21

include_other has been deprecated and has not effect in 0.21 and will be removed in 0.23.

type_filter : string, list of string, or None, default=None

Which kind of estimators should be returned. If None, no filter is applied and all estimators are returned. Possible values are ‘classifier’, ‘regressor’, ‘cluster’ and ‘transformer’ to get estimators only of these specific types, or a list of these to get the estimators that fit at least one of the types.

include_dont_test : boolean, default=False

Deprecated, ignored. .. deprecated:: 0.21

include_dont_test has been deprecated and has no effect in 0.21 and will be removed in 0.23.

Returns:
estimators : list of tuples

List of (name, class), where name is the class name as string and class is the actuall type of the class.
