`sklearn.model_selection`.LeavePGroupsOut¶

class sklearn.model_selection.LeavePGroupsOut(n_groups)[source]¶

Leave P Group(s) Out cross-validator

Provides train/test indices to split data according to a third-party provided group. This group information can be used to encode arbitrary domain specific stratifications of the samples as integers.

For instance the groups could be the year of collection of the samples and thus allow for cross-validation against time-based splits.

The difference between LeavePGroupsOut and LeaveOneGroupOut is that the former builds the test sets with all the samples assigned to p different values of the groups while the latter uses samples all assigned the same groups.

Examples

>>> import numpy as np
>>> from sklearn.model_selection import LeavePGroupsOut
>>> X = np.array([[1, 2], [3, 4], [5, 6]])
>>> y = np.array([1, 2, 1])
>>> groups = np.array([1, 2, 3])
>>> lpgo = LeavePGroupsOut(n_groups=2)
>>> lpgo.get_n_splits(X, y, groups)
3
>>> lpgo.get_n_splits(groups=groups)  # 'groups' is always required
3
>>> print(lpgo)
LeavePGroupsOut(n_groups=2)
>>> for train_index, test_index in lpgo.split(X, y, groups):
...     print("TRAIN:", train_index, "TEST:", test_index)
...     X_train, X_test = X[train_index], X[test_index]
...     y_train, y_test = y[train_index], y[test_index]
...     print(X_train, X_test, y_train, y_test)
TRAIN: [2] TEST: [0 1]
[[5 6]] [[1 2]
 [3 4]] [1] [1 2]
TRAIN: [1] TEST: [0 2]
[[3 4]] [[1 2]
 [5 6]] [2] [1 1]
TRAIN: [0] TEST: [1 2]
[[1 2]] [[3 4]
 [5 6]] [1] [2 1]

Methods

`get_n_splits`(self[, X, y, groups])	Returns the number of splitting iterations in the cross-validator
`split`(self, X[, y, groups])	Generate indices to split data into training and test set.

__init__(self, n_groups)[source]¶: Initialize self. See help(type(self)) for accurate signature.

get_n_splits(self, X=None, y=None, groups=None)[source]¶

Returns the number of splitting iterations in the cross-validator

Parameters

Xobject: Always ignored, exists for compatibility.
yobject: Always ignored, exists for compatibility.
groupsarray-like, with shape (n_samples,): Group labels for the samples used while splitting the dataset into train/test set. This ‘groups’ parameter must always be specified to calculate the number of splits, though the other parameters can be omitted.

Returns

n_splitsint: Returns the number of splitting iterations in the cross-validator.

split(self, X, y=None, groups=None)[source]¶

Generate indices to split data into training and test set.

Parameters

Xarray-like, shape (n_samples, n_features): Training data, where n_samples is the number of samples and n_features is the number of features.
yarray-like, of length n_samples, optional: The target variable for supervised learning problems.
groupsarray-like, with shape (n_samples,): Group labels for the samples used while splitting the dataset into train/test set.

Yields

trainndarray: The training set indices for that split.
testndarray: The testing set indices for that split.
