Version 1.1.3¶

October 2022

This bugfix release only includes fixes for compatibility with the latest SciPy release >= 1.9.2. Notable changes include:

Fix Include msvcp140.dll in the scikit-learn wheels since it has been removed in the latest SciPy wheels. #24631 by Chiara Marmo.
Enhancement Create wheels for Python 3.11. #24446 by Chiara Marmo.

Other bug fixes will be available in the next 1.2 release, which will be released in the coming weeks.

Note that support for 32-bit Python on Windows has been dropped in this release. This is due to the fact that SciPy 1.9.2 also dropped the support for that platform. Windows users are advised to install the 64-bit version of Python instead.

Version 1.1.2¶

August 2022

Changed models¶

The following estimators and functions, when fit with the same data and parameters, may produce different models from the previous version. This often occurs due to changes in the modelling logic (bug fixes or enhancements), or in random sampling procedures.

Fix manifold.TSNE now throws a ValueError when fit with perplexity>=n_samples to ensure mathematical correctness of the algorithm. #10805 by Mathias Andersen and #23471 by Meekail Zain.

Legend for changelogs¶

Major Feature : something big that you couldn’t do before.
Feature : something that you couldn’t do before.
Efficiency : an existing feature now may not require as much computation or memory.
Enhancement : a miscellaneous minor improvement.
Fix : something that previously didn’t work as documentated – or according to reasonable expectations – should now work.
API Change : you will need to change your code to have the same effect in the future; or a feature will be removed in the future.

Minimal dependencies¶

Version 1.1.0 of scikit-learn requires python 3.8+, numpy 1.17.3+ and scipy 1.3.2+. Optional minimal dependency is matplotlib 3.1.2+.

Changed models¶

Efficiency cluster.KMeans now defaults to algorithm="lloyd" instead of algorithm="auto", which was equivalent to algorithm="elkan". Lloyd’s algorithm and Elkan’s algorithm converge to the same solution, up to numerical rounding errors, but in general Lloyd’s algorithm uses much less memory, and it is often faster.
Efficiency Fitting tree.DecisionTreeClassifier, tree.DecisionTreeRegressor, ensemble.RandomForestClassifier, ensemble.RandomForestRegressor, ensemble.GradientBoostingClassifier, and ensemble.GradientBoostingRegressor is on average 15% faster than in previous versions thanks to a new sort algorithm to find the best split. Models might be different because of a different handling of splits with tied criterion values: both the old and the new sorting algorithm are unstable sorting algorithms. #22868 by Thomas Fan.
Fix The eigenvectors initialization for cluster.SpectralClustering and manifold.SpectralEmbedding now samples from a Gaussian when using the 'amg' or 'lobpcg' solver. This change improves numerical stability of the solver, but may result in a different model.
Fix feature_selection.f_regression and feature_selection.r_regression will now returned finite score by default instead of np.nan and np.inf for some corner case. You can use force_finite=False if you really want to get non-finite values and keep the old behavior.
Fix Panda’s DataFrames with all non-string columns such as a MultiIndex no longer warns when passed into an Estimator. Estimators will continue to ignore the column names in DataFrames with non-string columns. For feature_names_in_ to be defined, columns must be all strings. #22410 by Thomas Fan.
Fix preprocessing.KBinsDiscretizer changed handling of bin edges slightly, which might result in a different encoding with the same data.
Fix calibration.calibration_curve changed handling of bin edges slightly, which might result in a different output curve given the same data.
Fix discriminant_analysis.LinearDiscriminantAnalysis now uses the correct variance-scaling coefficient which may result in different model behavior.
Fix feature_selection.SelectFromModel.fit and feature_selection.SelectFromModel.partial_fit can now be called with prefit=True. estimators_ will be a deep copy of estimator when prefit=True. #23271 by Guillaume Lemaitre.

Changelog¶

Efficiency Low-level routines for reductions on pairwise distances for dense float64 datasets have been refactored. The following functions and estimators now benefit from improved performances in terms of hardware scalability and speed-ups:
For instance sklearn.neighbors.NearestNeighbors.kneighbors and sklearn.neighbors.NearestNeighbors.radius_neighbors can respectively be up to ×20 and ×5 faster than previously.

#21987, #22064, #22065, #22288 and #22320 by Julien Jerphanion.
Enhancement All scikit-learn models now generate a more informative error message when some input contains unexpected NaN or infinite values. In particular the message contains the input name (“X”, “y” or “sample_weight”) and if an unexpected NaN value is found in X, the error message suggests potential solutions. #21219 by Olivier Grisel.
Enhancement All scikit-learn models now generate a more informative error message when setting invalid hyper-parameters with set_params. #21542 by Olivier Grisel.
Enhancement Removes random unique identifiers in the HTML representation. With this change, jupyter notebooks are reproducible as long as the cells are run in the same order. #23098 by Thomas Fan.
Fix Estimators with non_deterministic tag set to True will skip both check_methods_sample_order_invariance and check_methods_subset_invariance tests. #22318 by Zhehao Liu.
API Change The option for using the log loss, aka binomial or multinomial deviance, via the loss parameters was made more consistent. The preferred way is by setting the value to "log_loss". Old option names are still valid and produce the same models, but are deprecated and will be removed in version 1.3.
- For ensemble.GradientBoostingClassifier, the loss parameter name “deviance” is deprecated in favor of the new name “log_loss”, which is now the default. #23036 by Christian Lorentzen.
- For ensemble.HistGradientBoostingClassifier, the loss parameter names “auto”, “binary_crossentropy” and “categorical_crossentropy” are deprecated in favor of the new name “log_loss”, which is now the default. #23040 by Christian Lorentzen.
- For linear_model.SGDClassifier, the loss parameter name “log” is deprecated in favor of the new name “log_loss”. #23046 by Christian Lorentzen.
API Change Rich html representation of estimators is now enabled by default in Jupyter notebooks. It can be deactivated by setting display='text' in sklearn.set_config. #22856 by Jérémie du Boisberranger.

`sklearn.calibration`¶

Enhancement calibration.calibration_curve accepts a parameter pos_label to specify the positive class label. #21032 by Guillaume Lemaitre.
Enhancement calibration.CalibratedClassifierCV.fit now supports passing fit_params, which are routed to the base_estimator. #18170 by Benjamin Bossan.
Enhancement calibration.CalibrationDisplay accepts a parameter pos_label to add this information to the plot. #21038 by Guillaume Lemaitre.
Fix calibration.calibration_curve handles bin edges more consistently now. #14975 by Andreas Müller and #22526 by Meekail Zain.
API Change calibration.calibration_curve’s normalize parameter is now deprecated and will be removed in version 1.3. It is recommended that a proper probability (i.e. a classifier’s predict_proba positive class) is used for y_prob. #23095 by Jordan Silke.

`sklearn.cluster`¶

Major Feature BisectingKMeans introducing Bisecting K-Means algorithm #20031 by Michal Krawczyk, Tom Dupre la Tour and Jérémie du Boisberranger.
Enhancement cluster.SpectralClustering and cluster.spectral_clustering now include the new 'cluster_qr' method that clusters samples in the embedding space as an alternative to the existing 'kmeans' and 'discrete' methods. See cluster.spectral_clustering for more details. #21148 by Andrew Knyazev.
Enhancement Adds get_feature_names_out to cluster.Birch, cluster.FeatureAgglomeration, cluster.KMeans, cluster.MiniBatchKMeans. #22255 by Thomas Fan.
Enhancement cluster.SpectralClustering now raises consistent error messages when passed invalid values for n_clusters, n_init, gamma, n_neighbors, eigen_tol or degree. #21881 by Hugo Vassard.
Enhancement cluster.AffinityPropagation now returns cluster centers and labels if they exist, even if the model has not fully converged. When returning these potentially-degenerate cluster centers and labels, a new warning message is shown. If no cluster centers were constructed, then the cluster centers remain an empty list with labels set to -1 and the original warning message is shown. #22217 by Meekail Zain.
Efficiency In cluster.KMeans, the default algorithm is now "lloyd" which is the full classical EM-style algorithm. Both "auto" and "full" are deprecated and will be removed in version 1.3. They are now aliases for "lloyd". The previous default was "auto", which relied on Elkan’s algorithm. Lloyd’s algorithm uses less memory than Elkan’s, it is faster on many datasets, and its results are identical, hence the change. #21735 by Aurélien Geron.
Fix cluster.KMeans’s init parameter now properly supports array-like input and NumPy string scalars. #22154 by Thomas Fan.

`sklearn.compose`¶

Fix compose.ColumnTransformer now removes validation errors from __init__ and set_params methods. #22537 by iofall and Arisa Y..
Fix get_feature_names_out functionality in compose.ColumnTransformer was broken when columns were specified using slice. This is fixed in #22775 and #22913 by randomgeek78.

`sklearn.covariance`¶

Fix covariance.GraphicalLassoCV now accepts NumPy array for the parameter alphas. #22493 by Guillaume Lemaitre.

`sklearn.cross_decomposition`¶

Enhancement the inverse_transform method of cross_decomposition.PLSRegression, cross_decomposition.PLSCanonical and cross_decomposition.CCA now allows reconstruction of a X target when a Y parameter is given. #19680 by Robin Thibaut.
Enhancement Adds get_feature_names_out to all transformers in the cross_decomposition module: cross_decomposition.CCA, cross_decomposition.PLSSVD, cross_decomposition.PLSRegression, and cross_decomposition.PLSCanonical. #22119 by Thomas Fan.
Fix The shape of the coef_ attribute of cross_decomposition.CCA, cross_decomposition.PLSCanonical and cross_decomposition.PLSRegression will change in version 1.3, from (n_features, n_targets) to (n_targets, n_features), to be consistent with other linear models and to make it work with interface expecting a specific shape for coef_ (e.g. feature_selection.RFE). #22016 by Guillaume Lemaitre.
API Change add the fitted attribute intercept_ to cross_decomposition.PLSCanonical, cross_decomposition.PLSRegression, and cross_decomposition.CCA. The method predict is indeed equivalent to Y = X @ coef_ + intercept_. #22015 by Guillaume Lemaitre.

`sklearn.datasets`¶

Feature datasets.load_files now accepts a ignore list and an allow list based on file extensions. #19747 by Tony Attalla and #22498 by Meekail Zain.
Enhancement datasets.make_swiss_roll now supports the optional argument hole; when set to True, it returns the swiss-hole dataset. #21482 by Sebastian Pujalte.
Enhancement datasets.make_blobs no longer copies data during the generation process, therefore uses less memory. #22412 by Zhehao Liu.
Enhancement datasets.load_diabetes now accepts the parameter scaled, to allow loading unscaled data. The scaled version of this dataset is now computed from the unscaled data, and can produce slightly different results that in previous version (within a 1e-4 absolute tolerance). #16605 by Mandy Gu.
Enhancement datasets.fetch_openml now has two optional arguments n_retries and delay. By default, datasets.fetch_openml will retry 3 times in case of a network failure with a delay between each try. #21901 by Rileran.
Fix datasets.fetch_covtype is now concurrent-safe: data is downloaded to a temporary directory before being moved to the data directory. #23113 by Ilion Beyst.
API Change datasets.make_sparse_coded_signal now accepts a parameter data_transposed to explicitly specify the shape of matrix X. The default behavior True is to return a transposed matrix X corresponding to a (n_features, n_samples) shape. The default value will change to False in version 1.3. #21425 by Gabriel Stefanini Vicente.

`sklearn.decomposition`¶

Major Feature Added a new estimator decomposition.MiniBatchNMF. It is a faster but less accurate version of non-negative matrix factorization, better suited for large datasets. #16948 by Chiara Marmo, Patricio Cerda and Jérémie du Boisberranger.
Enhancement decomposition.dict_learning, decomposition.dict_learning_online and decomposition.sparse_encode preserve dtype for numpy.float32. decomposition.DictionaryLearning, decomposition.MiniBatchDictionaryLearning and decomposition.SparseCoder preserve dtype for numpy.float32. #22002 by Takeshi Oura.
Enhancement decomposition.PCA exposes a parameter n_oversamples to tune utils.randomized_svd and get accurate results when the number of features is large. #21109 by Smile.
Enhancement The decomposition.MiniBatchDictionaryLearning and decomposition.dict_learning_online have been refactored and now have a stopping criterion based on a small change of the dictionary or objective function, controlled by the new max_iter, tol and max_no_improvement parameters. In addition, some of their parameters and attributes are deprecated.
- the n_iter parameter of both is deprecated. Use max_iter instead.
- the iter_offset, return_inner_stats, inner_stats and return_n_iter parameters of decomposition.dict_learning_online serve internal purpose and are deprecated.
- the inner_stats_, iter_offset_ and random_state_ attributes of decomposition.MiniBatchDictionaryLearning serve internal purpose and are deprecated.
- the default value of the batch_size parameter of both will change from 3 to 256 in version 1.3.
#18975 by Jérémie du Boisberranger.
Enhancement decomposition.SparsePCA and decomposition.MiniBatchSparsePCA preserve dtype for numpy.float32. #22111 by Takeshi Oura.
Enhancement decomposition.TruncatedSVD now allows n_components == n_features, if algorithm='randomized'. #22181 by Zach Deane-Mayer.
Enhancement Adds get_feature_names_out to all transformers in the decomposition module: decomposition.DictionaryLearning, decomposition.FactorAnalysis, decomposition.FastICA, decomposition.IncrementalPCA, decomposition.KernelPCA, decomposition.LatentDirichletAllocation, decomposition.MiniBatchDictionaryLearning, decomposition.MiniBatchSparsePCA, decomposition.NMF, decomposition.PCA, decomposition.SparsePCA, and decomposition.TruncatedSVD. #21334 by Thomas Fan.
Enhancement decomposition.TruncatedSVD exposes the parameter n_oversamples and power_iteration_normalizer to tune utils.randomized_svd and get accurate results when the number of features is large, the rank of the matrix is high, or other features of the matrix make low rank approximation difficult. #21705 by Jay S. Stanley III.
Enhancement decomposition.PCA exposes the parameter power_iteration_normalizer to tune utils.randomized_svd and get more accurate results when low rank approximation is difficult. #21705 by Jay S. Stanley III.
Fix decomposition.FastICA now validates input parameters in fit instead of __init__. #21432 by Hannah Bohle and Maren Westermann.
Fix decomposition.FastICA now accepts np.float32 data without silent upcasting. The dtype is preserved by fit and fit_transform and the main fitted attributes use a dtype of the same precision as the training data. #22806 by Jihane Bennis and Olivier Grisel.
Fix decomposition.FactorAnalysis now validates input parameters in fit instead of __init__. #21713 by Haya and Krum Arnaudov.
Fix decomposition.KernelPCA now validates input parameters in fit instead of __init__. #21567 by Maggie Chege.

Fix Greatly reduced peak memory usage in decomposition.PCA when calling fit or fit_transform. #22553 by Meekail Zain.
API Change decomposition.FastICA now supports unit variance for whitening. The default value of its whiten argument will change from True (which behaves like 'arbitrary-variance') to 'unit-variance' in version 1.3. #19490 by Facundo Ferrin and Julien Jerphanion.

`sklearn.discriminant_analysis`¶

Enhancement Adds get_feature_names_out to discriminant_analysis.LinearDiscriminantAnalysis. #22120 by Thomas Fan.
Fix discriminant_analysis.LinearDiscriminantAnalysis now uses the correct variance-scaling coefficient which may result in different model behavior. #15984 by Okon Samuel and #22696 by Meekail Zain.

`sklearn.dummy`¶

Efficiency Improve runtime performance of ensemble.IsolationForest by skipping repetitive input checks. #23149 by Zhehao Liu.
Fix Change the parameter validation_fraction in ensemble.GradientBoostingClassifier and ensemble.GradientBoostingRegressor so that an error is raised if anything other than a float is passed in as an argument. #21632 by Genesis Valencia.
Fix Removed a potential source of CPU oversubscription in ensemble.HistGradientBoostingClassifier and ensemble.HistGradientBoostingRegressor when CPU resource usage is limited, for instance using cgroups quota in a docker container. #22566 by Jérémie du Boisberranger.
Fix ensemble.HistGradientBoostingClassifier and ensemble.HistGradientBoostingRegressor no longer warns when fitting on a pandas DataFrame with a non-default scoring parameter and early_stopping enabled. #22908 by Thomas Fan.

API Change Changed the default of max_features to 1.0 for ensemble.RandomForestRegressor and to "sqrt" for ensemble.RandomForestClassifier. Note that these give the same fit results as before, but are much easier to understand. The old default value "auto" has been deprecated and will be removed in version 1.3. The same changes are also applied for ensemble.ExtraTreesRegressor and ensemble.ExtraTreesClassifier. #20803 by Brian Sun.
Efficiency Improve runtime performance of ensemble.IsolationForest by skipping repetitive input checks. #23149 by Zhehao Liu.

`sklearn.feature_extraction`¶

`sklearn.feature_selection`¶

Feature Added auto mode to feature_selection.SequentialFeatureSelector. If the argument n_features_to_select is 'auto', select features until the score improvement does not exceed the argument tol. The default value of n_features_to_select changed from None to 'warn' in 1.1 and will become 'auto' in 1.3. None and 'warn' will be removed in 1.3. #20145 by murata-yu.
Feature Added the ability to pass callables to the max_features parameter of feature_selection.SelectFromModel. Also introduced new attribute max_features_ which is inferred from max_features and the data during fit. If max_features is an integer, then max_features_ = max_features. If max_features is a callable, then max_features_ = max_features(X). #22356 by Meekail Zain.
Enhancement feature_selection.GenericUnivariateSelect preserves float32 dtype. #18482 by Thierry Gameiro and Daniel Kharsa and #22370 by Meekail Zain.
Enhancement Add a parameter force_finite to feature_selection.f_regression and feature_selection.r_regression. This parameter allows to force the output to be finite in the case where a feature or a the target is constant or that the feature and target are perfectly correlated (only for the F-statistic). #17819 by Juan Carlos Alfaro Jiménez.
Efficiency Improve runtime performance of feature_selection.chi2 with boolean arrays. #22235 by Thomas Fan.
Efficiency Reduced memory usage of feature_selection.chi2. #21837 by Louis Wagner.

Feature linear_model.Ridge with solver="lsqr" now supports to fit sparse input with fit_intercept=True. #22950 by Christian Lorentzen.
Enhancement linear_model.QuantileRegressor support sparse input for the highs based solvers. #21086 by Venkatachalam Natchiappan. In addition, those solvers now use the CSC matrix right from the beginning which speeds up fitting. #22206 by Christian Lorentzen.
Enhancement linear_model.LogisticRegression is faster for solvers="lbfgs" and solver="newton-cg", for binary and in particular for multiclass problems thanks to the new private loss function module. In the multiclass case, the memory consumption has also been reduced for these solvers as the target is now label encoded (mapped to integers) instead of label binarized (one-hot encoded). The more classes, the larger the benefit. #21808, #20567 and #21814 by Christian Lorentzen.
Enhancement linear_model.GammaRegressor, linear_model.PoissonRegressor and linear_model.TweedieRegressor are faster for solvers="lbfgs". #22548, #21808 and #20567 by Christian Lorentzen.
Enhancement Rename parameter base_estimator to estimator in linear_model.RANSACRegressor to improve readability and consistency. base_estimator is deprecated and will be removed in 1.3. #22062 by Adrian Trujillo.
Enhancement linear_model.ElasticNet and and other linear model classes using coordinate descent show error messages when non-finite parameter weights are produced. #22148 by Christian Ritter and Norbert Preining.

Fix pipeline.Pipeline now does not validate hyper-parameters in __init__ but in .fit(). #21888 by iofall and Arisa Y..
Fix pipeline.FeatureUnion does not validate hyper-parameters in __init__. Validation is now handled in .fit() and .fit_transform(). #21954 by iofall and Arisa Y..
Fix Defines __sklearn_is_fitted__ in pipeline.FeatureUnion to return correct result with utils.validation.check_is_fitted. #22953 by randomgeek78.

`sklearn.preprocessing`¶

Feature preprocessing.OneHotEncoder now supports grouping infrequent categories into a single feature. Grouping infrequent categories is enabled by specifying how to select infrequent categories with min_frequency or max_categories. #16018 by Thomas Fan.
Enhancement Adds a subsample parameter to preprocessing.KBinsDiscretizer. This allows specifying a maximum number of samples to be used while fitting the model. The option is only available when strategy is set to quantile. #21445 by Felipe Bidu and Amanda Dsouza.
Enhancement Adds encoded_missing_value to preprocessing.OrdinalEncoder to configure the encoded value for missing data. #21988 by Thomas Fan.
Enhancement Added the get_feature_names_out method and a new parameter feature_names_out to preprocessing.FunctionTransformer.

API Change Changed the default value of max_features to 1.0 for tree.ExtraTreeRegressor and to "sqrt" for tree.ExtraTreeClassifier, which will not change the fit result. The original default value "auto" has been deprecated and will be removed in version 1.3. Setting max_features to "auto" is also deprecated for tree.DecisionTreeClassifier and tree.DecisionTreeRegressor. #22476 by Zhehao Liu.

`sklearn.utils`¶

Enhancement utils.check_array and utils.multiclass.type_of_target now accept an input_name parameter to make the error message more informative when passed invalid input data (e.g. with NaN or infinite values). #21219 by Olivier Grisel.
Enhancement utils.check_array returns a float ndarray with np.nan when passed a Float32 or Float64 pandas extension array with pd.NA. #21278 by Thomas Fan.
Enhancement utils.estimator_html_repr shows a more helpful error message when running in a jupyter notebook that is not trusted. #21316 by Thomas Fan.
Enhancement utils.estimator_html_repr displays an arrow on the top left corner of the HTML representation to show how the elements are clickable. #21298 by Thomas Fan.
Enhancement utils.check_array with dtype=None returns numeric arrays when passed in a pandas DataFrame with mixed dtypes. dtype="numeric" will also make better infer the dtype when the DataFrame has mixed dtypes. #22237 by Thomas Fan.
