sklearn.learning_curve.validation_curve()

Warning

DEPRECATED

sklearn.learning_curve.validation_curve(estimator, X, y, param_name, param_range, cv=None, scoring=None, n_jobs=1, pre_dispatch='all', verbose=0) [source]

Validation curve.

Deprecated since version 0.18: This module will be removed in 0.20. Use sklearn.model_selection.validation_curve instead.

Determine training and test scores for varying parameter values.

Compute scores for an estimator with different values of a specified parameter. This is similar to grid search with one parameter. However, this will also compute training scores and is merely a utility for plotting the results.

Read more in the User Guide.

Parameters:

estimator : object type that implements the ?fit? and ?predict? methods

An object of that type which is cloned for each validation.

X : array-like, shape (n_samples, n_features)

Training vector, where n_samples is the number of samples and n_features is the number of features.

y : array-like, shape (n_samples) or (n_samples, n_features), optional

Target relative to X for classification or regression; None for unsupervised learning.

param_name : string

Name of the parameter that will be varied.

param_range : array-like, shape (n_values,)

The values of the parameter that will be evaluated.

cv : int, cross-validation generator or an iterable, optional

Determines the cross-validation splitting strategy. Possible inputs for cv are:

  • None, to use the default 3-fold cross-validation,
  • integer, to specify the number of folds.
  • An object to be used as a cross-validation generator.
  • An iterable yielding train/test splits.

For integer/None inputs, if the estimator is a classifier and y is either binary or multiclass, sklearn.model_selection.StratifiedKFold is used. In all other cases, sklearn.model_selection.KFold is used.

Refer User Guide for the various cross-validation strategies that can be used here.

scoring : string, callable or None, optional, default: None

A string (see model evaluation documentation) or a scorer callable object / function with signature scorer(estimator, X, y).

n_jobs : integer, optional

Number of jobs to run in parallel (default 1).

pre_dispatch : integer or string, optional

Number of predispatched jobs for parallel execution (default is all). The option can reduce the allocated memory. The string can be an expression like ?2*n_jobs?.

verbose : integer, optional

Controls the verbosity: the higher, the more messages.

Returns:

train_scores : array, shape (n_ticks, n_cv_folds)

Scores on training sets.

test_scores : array, shape (n_ticks, n_cv_folds)

Scores on test set.
