Parameter estimation using grid search with cross-validation

This examples shows how a classifier is optimized by cross-validation, which is done using the sklearn.model_selection.GridSearchCV object on a development set that comprises only half of the available labeled data.

The performance of the selected hyper-parameters and trained model is then measured on a dedicated evaluation set that was not used during the model selection step.

More details on tools available for model selection can be found in the sections on Cross-validation: evaluating estimator performance and Tuning the hyper-parameters of an estimator.
