Code for Kaggle Data Science Competitions.
Project description
Kaggler
Kaggler is a Python package for lightweight online machine learning algorithms and utility functions for ETL and data analysis. It is distributed under the MIT License.
Its online learning algorithms are inspired by Kaggle user tinrtgu's code. It uses the sparse input format that handles large sparse data efficiently. Core code is optimized for speed by using Cython.

Data I/O
Kaggler supports CSV (.csv
), LibSVM (.sps
), and HDF5 (.h5
) file formats:
# CSV format: target,feature1,feature2,...
1,1,0,0,1,0.5
0,0,1,0,0,5
# LibSVM format: target feature-index1:feature-value1 feature-index2:feature-value2
1 1:1 4:1 5:0.5
0 2:1 5:1
# HDF5
- issparse: binary flag indicating whether it stores sparse data or not.
- target: stores a target variable as a numpy.array
- shape: available only if issparse == 1. shape of scipy.sparse.csr_matrix
- indices: available only if issparse == 1. indices of scipy.sparse.csr_matrix
- indptr: available only if issparse == 1. indptr of scipy.sparse.csr_matrix
- data: dense feature matrix if issparse == 0 else data of scipy.sparse.csr_matrix
from kaggler.data_io import load_data, save_data
X, y = load_data('train.csv') # use the first column as a target variable
X, y = load_data('train.h5') # load the feature matrix and target vector from a HDF5 file.
X, y = load_data('train.sps') # load the feature matrix and target vector from LibSVM file.
save_data(X, y, 'train.csv')
save_data(X, y, 'train.h5')
save_data(X, y, 'train.sps')
