a library used for stacking based on scikit-learn
Project description
SKNet
Introduction
SKNet is a new type of neural network that is simple in structure but complex in neuron. Each of its neuron is a traditional estimator such as SVM, RF, etc.
Fetaures
We think that such a network has many applicable scenarios. For example:
- We don't have enough samples to train neural networks.
- We hope to improve the accuracy of the model by means of emsemble.
- We hope to learn some new features.
- We want to save a lot of parameter-tuning time while getting a stable and good model.
Installation
pip install sknet

How to construct the SkNet
General Considerations(不用严格遵守)
- introduce more information on first level
- use simpler model for Subquent level
How to introduce more information?
- use different estimator
- use same estimator but differences parameters(such as random seed, ...)
- simpling samples
- simpleing features
- different feature engineering techniques (one-hot, embedding, ...)
first level Tips
- Diversity based on algo
- 2-3 gradient boosted trees(xgboost, H2O, catboost)
- 2-3 Neural Net (keras, pyTorch)
- 1-2 ExtraTree/ Random Forest( sklearn)
- 1-2 Linear models as in Logistic/ridge regression, linearsvm(sklearn)
- 1-2 knn models(sklearn)
- 1 Factorization machine (libfm)
- 1 svm with nonlinear kernel if size/memory allows(sklearn)
- 1 svm with nonlinear kernel if size/memory allows(sklearn)
- Diversity based on input data
- Categorical features: One hot, label encoding, target encoding, frequency.
- Numberical features: outliner, binning, derivatives, percentiles, scaling
- Interactions: col1 */+-col2, groupby, unsupervied
- For classification target, we can use regression models in middle level
Subquent level tips
- Simpler(or shallower) algo
- gradient boosted tree with small depth(2 or 3)
- linear models with high reglarization
- Extra Trees
- Shallow network
- Knn with BrayCurtis Distance
- Brute forcing a seach for best linear weights based on cv
- Feature engineering
- parwise differences between meta features
- row-wise statics like average or stds
- Standard feature selection techniques
Todo
- Two or three level stacking
- multi-processing
- features proxy
