sklearn.kernel_approximation.Nystroem

class sklearn.kernel_approximation.Nystroem(kernel='rbf', *, gamma=None, coef0=None, degree=None, kernel_params=None, n_components=100, random_state=None, n_jobs=None)[source]

Approximate a kernel map using a subset of the training data.

Constructs an approximate feature map for an arbitrary kernel using a subset of the data as basis.

Read more in the User Guide.

New in version 0.13.

Parameters:
kernelstr or callable, default=’rbf’

Kernel map to be approximated. A callable should accept two arguments and the keyword arguments passed to this object as kernel_params, and should return a floating point number.

gammafloat, default=None

Gamma parameter for the RBF, laplacian, polynomial, exponential chi2 and sigmoid kernels. Interpretation of the default value is left to the kernel; see the documentation for sklearn.metrics.pairwise. Ignored by other kernels.

coef0float, default=None

Zero coefficient for polynomial and sigmoid kernels. Ignored by other kernels.

degreefloat, default=None

Degree of the polynomial kernel. Ignored by other kernels.

kernel_paramsdict, default=None

Additional parameters (keyword arguments) for kernel function passed as callable object.

n_componentsint, default=100

Number of features to construct. How many data points will be used to construct the mapping.

random_stateint, RandomState instance or None, default=None

Pseudo-random number generator to control the uniform sampling without replacement of n_components of the training data to construct the basis kernel. Pass an int for reproducible output across multiple function calls. See Glossary.

n_jobsint, default=None

The number of jobs to use for the computation. This works by breaking down the kernel matrix into n_jobs even slices and computing them in parallel.

None means 1 unless in a joblib.parallel_backend context. -1 means using all processors. See Glossary for more details.

New in version 0.24.

Attributes:
components_ndarray of shape (n_components, n_features)

Subset of training points used to construct the feature map.

component_indices_ndarray of shape (n_components)

Indices of components_ in the training set.

normalization_ndarray of shape (n_components, n_components)

Normalization matrix needed for embedding. Square root of the kernel matrix on components_.

n_features_in_int

Number of features seen during fit.

New in version 0.24.

feature_names_in_ndarray of shape (n_features_in_,)

Names of features seen during fit. Defined only when X has feature names that are all strings.

New in version 1.0.

Methods

fit(X[, y])

Fit estimator to data.

fit_transform(X[, y])

Fit to data, then transform it.

get_feature_names_out([input_features])

Get output feature names for transformation.

get_params([deep])

Get parameters for this estimator.

set_params(**params)

Set the parameters of this estimator.

transform(X)

Apply feature map to X.

fit(X, y=None)[source]

Fit estimator to data.

Samples a subset of training points, computes kernel on these and computes normalization matrix.

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, shape (n_samples,) or (n_samples, n_outputs), default=None

Target values (None for unsupervised transformations).

Returns:
selfobject

Returns the instance itself.

fit_transform(X, y=None, **fit_params)[source]

Fit to data, then transform it.

Fits transformer to X and y with optional parameters fit_params and returns a transformed version of X.

Parameters:
Xarray-like of shape (n_samples, n_features)

Input samples.

yarray-like of shape (n_samples,) or (n_samples, n_outputs), default=None

Target values (None for unsupervised transformations).

Additional fit parameters.

Returns:
X_newndarray array of shape (n_samples, n_features_new)

Transformed array.

get_feature_names_out(input_features=None)[source]

Get output feature names for transformation.

Parameters:

Transformed feature names.

get_params(deep=True)[source]

Get parameters for this estimator.

Parameters:
deepbool, default=True

If True, will return the parameters for this estimator and contained subobjects that are estimators.

Returns:
paramsdict

Parameter names mapped to their values.

set_params(**params)[source]

Set the parameters of this estimator.

The method works on simple estimators as well as on nested objects (such as Pipeline). The latter have parameters of the form <component>__<parameter> so that it’s possible to update each component of a nested object.

Parameters:
**paramsdict

Estimator parameters.

Returns:
selfestimator instance

Estimator instance.

transform(X)[source]
