`sklearn.linear_model`.ARDRegression¶

class sklearn.linear_model.ARDRegression(*, max_iter=None, tol=0.001, alpha_1=1e-06, alpha_2=1e-06, lambda_1=1e-06, lambda_2=1e-06, compute_score=False, threshold_lambda=10000.0, fit_intercept=True, copy_X=True, verbose=False, n_iter='deprecated')[source]¶

Bayesian ARD regression.

Fit the weights of a regression model, using an ARD prior. The weights of the regression model are assumed to be in Gaussian distributions. Also estimate the parameters lambda (precisions of the distributions of the weights) and alpha (precision of the distribution of the noise). The estimation is done by an iterative procedures (Evidence Maximization)

Examples

>>> from sklearn import linear_model
>>> clf = linear_model.ARDRegression()
>>> clf.fit([[0,0], [1, 1], [2, 2]], [0, 1, 2])
ARDRegression()
>>> clf.predict([[1, 1]])

Methods

`fit`(X, y)	Fit the model according to the given training data and parameters.
`get_metadata_routing`()	Get metadata routing of this object.
`get_params`([deep])	Get parameters for this estimator.
`predict`(X[, return_std])	Predict using the linear model.
`score`(X, y[, sample_weight])	Return the coefficient of determination of the prediction.
`set_params`(**params)	Set the parameters of this estimator.
`set_predict_request`(*[, return_std])	Request metadata passed to the `predict` method.
`set_score_request`(*[, sample_weight])	Request metadata passed to the `score` method.

fit(X, y)[source]¶

Fit the model according to the given training data and parameters.

Iterative procedure to maximize the evidence

Parameters:

Xarray-like of shape (n_samples, n_features): Training vector, where n_samples is the number of samples and n_features is the number of features.
yarray-like of shape (n_samples,): Target values (integers). Will be cast to X’s dtype if necessary.

Returns:

selfobject: Fitted estimator.

get_metadata_routing()[source]¶

Get metadata routing of this object.

Please check User Guide on how the routing mechanism works.

Returns:

routingMetadataRequest: A MetadataRequest encapsulating routing information.

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.

predict(X, return_std=False)[source]¶

Predict using the linear model.

In addition to the mean of the predictive distribution, also its standard deviation can be returned.

Parameters:

X{array-like, sparse matrix} of shape (n_samples, n_features): Samples.
return_stdbool, default=False: Whether to return the standard deviation of posterior prediction.

Returns:

y_meanarray-like of shape (n_samples,): Mean of predictive distribution of query points.
y_stdarray-like of shape (n_samples,): Standard deviation of predictive distribution of query points.

score(X, y, sample_weight=None)[source]¶

Return the coefficient of determination of the prediction.

The coefficient of determination $R^2$ is defined as $(1 - \frac{u}{v})$, where $u$ is the residual sum of squares ((y_true - y_pred)** 2).sum() and $v$ is the total sum of squares ((y_true - y_true.mean()) ** 2).sum(). The best possible score is 1.0 and it can be negative (because the model can be arbitrarily worse). A constant model that always predicts the expected value of y, disregarding the input features, would get a $R^2$ score of 0.0.

Parameters:

Xarray-like of shape (n_samples, n_features): Test samples. For some estimators this may be a precomputed kernel matrix or a list of generic objects instead with shape (n_samples, n_samples_fitted), where n_samples_fitted is the number of samples used in the fitting for the estimator.
yarray-like of shape (n_samples,) or (n_samples, n_outputs): True values for X.
sample_weightarray-like of shape (n_samples,), default=None: Sample weights.

Returns:

scorefloat: $R^2$ of self.predict(X) w.r.t. y.

Notes

The $R^2$ score used when calling score on a regressor uses multioutput='uniform_average' from version 0.23 to keep consistent with default value of r2_score. This influences the score method of all the multioutput regressors (except for MultiOutputRegressor).

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.

set_predict_request(*, return_std: Union[bool, None, str] = '$UNCHANGED$') → ARDRegression[source]¶

Request metadata passed to the predict method.

Note that this method is only relevant if enable_metadata_routing=True (see sklearn.set_config). Please see User Guide on how the routing mechanism works.

The options for each parameter are:

True: metadata is requested, and passed to predict if provided. The request is ignored if metadata is not provided.
False: metadata is not requested and the meta-estimator will not pass it to predict.
None: metadata is not requested, and the meta-estimator will raise an error if the user provides it.
str: metadata should be passed to the meta-estimator with this given alias instead of the original name.

The default (sklearn.utils.metadata_routing.UNCHANGED) retains the existing request. This allows you to change the request for some parameters and not others.

New in version 1.3.

Note

This method is only relevant if this estimator is used as a sub-estimator of a meta-estimator, e.g. used inside a Pipeline. Otherwise it has no effect.

Parameters:

return_stdstr, True, False, or None, default=sklearn.utils.metadata_routing.UNCHANGED: Metadata routing for return_std parameter in predict.

Returns:

selfobject: The updated object.

set_score_request(*, sample_weight: Union[bool, None, str] = '$UNCHANGED$') → ARDRegression[source]¶

Request metadata passed to the score method.

Note that this method is only relevant if enable_metadata_routing=True (see sklearn.set_config). Please see User Guide on how the routing mechanism works.

The options for each parameter are:

True: metadata is requested, and passed to score if provided. The request is ignored if metadata is not provided.
False: metadata is not requested and the meta-estimator will not pass it to score.
None: metadata is not requested, and the meta-estimator will raise an error if the user provides it.
str: metadata should be passed to the meta-estimator with this given alias instead of the original name.

The default (sklearn.utils.metadata_routing.UNCHANGED) retains the existing request. This allows you to change the request for some parameters and not others.

New in version 1.3.

Note

This method is only relevant if this estimator is used as a sub-estimator of a meta-estimator, e.g. used inside a Pipeline. Otherwise it has no effect.

Parameters:

sample_weightstr, True, False, or None, default=sklearn.utils.metadata_routing.UNCHANGED: Metadata routing for sample_weight parameter in score.

Returns:

selfobject: The updated object.
