sklearn.config_context

sklearn.config_context(**new_config)[source]

Context manager for global scikit-learn configuration

Parameters
assume_finitebool, optional

If True, validation for finiteness will be skipped, saving time, but leading to potential crashes. If False, validation for finiteness will be performed, avoiding error. Global default: False.

working_memoryint, optional

If set, scikit-learn will attempt to limit the size of temporary arrays to this number of MiB (per job when parallelised), often saving both computation time and memory on expensive operations that can be performed in chunks. Global default: 1024.

print_changed_onlybool, optional

If True, only the parameters that were set to non-default values will be printed when printing an estimator. For example, print(SVC()) while True will only print ‘SVC()’ while the default behaviour would be to print ‘SVC(C=1.0, cache_size=200, …)’ with all the non-changed parameters.

Notes

All settings, not just those presently modified, will be returned to their previous values when the context manager is exited. This is not thread-safe.
