API changes summary

  • Renamed all occurrences of n_atoms to n_components for consistency. This applies to decomposition.DictionaryLearning, decomposition.MiniBatchDictionaryLearning, decomposition.dict_learning, decomposition.dict_learning_online.

  • Renamed all occurrences of max_iters to max_iter for consistency. This applies to semi_supervised.LabelPropagation and semi_supervised.label_propagation.LabelSpreading.

  • Renamed all occurrences of learn_rate to learning_rate for consistency in ensemble.BaseGradientBoosting and ensemble.GradientBoostingRegressor.

  • The module sklearn.linear_model.sparse is gone. Sparse matrix support was already integrated into the “regular” linear models.

  • sklearn.metrics.mean_square_error, which incorrectly returned the accumulated error, was removed. Use mean_squared_error instead.

  • Passing class_weight parameters to fit methods is no longer supported. Pass them to estimator constructors instead.

  • GMMs no longer have decode and rvs methods. Use the score, predict or sample methods instead.

  • The solver fit option in Ridge regression and classification is now deprecated and will be removed in v0.14. Use the constructor option instead.

  • feature_extraction.text.DictVectorizer now returns sparse matrices in the CSR format, instead of COO.

  • Renamed k in cross_validation.KFold and cross_validation.StratifiedKFold to n_folds, renamed n_bootstraps to n_iter in cross_validation.Bootstrap.

  • Renamed all occurrences of n_iterations to n_iter for consistency. This applies to cross_validation.ShuffleSplit, cross_validation.StratifiedShuffleSplit, utils.randomized_range_finder and utils.randomized_svd.

  • Replaced rho in linear_model.ElasticNet and linear_model.SGDClassifier by l1_ratio. The rho parameter had different meanings; l1_ratio was introduced to avoid confusion. It has the same meaning as previously rho in linear_model.ElasticNet and (1-rho) in linear_model.SGDClassifier.

  • linear_model.LassoLars and linear_model.Lars now store a list of paths in the case of multiple targets, rather than an array of paths.

  • The attribute gmm of hmm.GMMHMM was renamed to gmm_ to adhere more strictly with the API.

  • cluster.spectral_embedding was moved to manifold.spectral_embedding.

  • Renamed eig_tol in manifold.spectral_embedding, cluster.SpectralClustering to eigen_tol, renamed mode to eigen_solver.

  • Renamed mode in manifold.spectral_embedding and cluster.SpectralClustering to eigen_solver.

  • classes_ and n_classes_ attributes of tree.DecisionTreeClassifier and all derived ensemble models are now flat in case of single output problems and nested in case of multi-output problems.

  • The estimators_ attribute of ensemble.gradient_boosting.GradientBoostingRegressor and ensemble.gradient_boosting.GradientBoostingClassifier is now an array of :class:’tree.DecisionTreeRegressor’.

  • Renamed chunk_size to batch_size in decomposition.MiniBatchDictionaryLearning and decomposition.MiniBatchSparsePCA for consistency.

  • svm.SVC and svm.NuSVC now provide a classes_ attribute and support arbitrary dtypes for labels y. Also, the dtype returned by predict now reflects the dtype of y during fit (used to be np.float).

  • Changed default test_size in cross_validation.train_test_split to None, added possibility to infer test_size from train_size in cross_validation.ShuffleSplit and cross_validation.StratifiedShuffleSplit.

  • Renamed function sklearn.metrics.zero_one to sklearn.metrics.zero_one_loss. Be aware that the default behavior in sklearn.metrics.zero_one_loss is different from sklearn.metrics.zero_one: normalize=False is changed to normalize=True.

  • Renamed function metrics.zero_one_score to metrics.accuracy_score.

  • datasets.make_circles now has the same number of inner and outer points.

  • In the Naive Bayes classifiers, the class_prior parameter was moved from fit to __init__.
