model-quality-report 1.3.0

This packages enables a quick creation of a report comparing quality of several ML models

Model Quality Report

This packages enables a quick creation of a model quality report, which is returned as a dict.

Main ingredients are a data splitter creating test and training data according various rules and the quality report itself. The quality report takes care of the splitting, fitting, predicting and finally deriving quality metrics.

Installing the package

Latest available code:

pip install model_quality_report

Specific version:

pip install model_quality_report==X.Y.Z

Quickstart

• The RandomDataSplitter splits data randomly using sklearn.model_selection.train_test_split:

X = pd.DataFrame({'a': [1, 2, 3, 4, 5], 'b': ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e']})
y = pd.Series(data=range(5))

splitter = RandomDataSplitter(test_size=0.33, random_state=2)
X_train, X_test, y_train, y_test = splitter.split(X, y)

• The TimeDeltaDataSplitter divides such that data from last period of length time_delta is used as test data. Here a pd.Timedelta and the date column name is provided:

splitter = TimeDeltaDataSplitter(date_column_name='shipping_date', time_delta=pd.Timedelta(3, unit='h')) 
X_train, X_test, y_train, y_test = splitter.split(X, y)

• The SplitDateDataSplitter splits such that data after a provided date are used as test data. Additionally, the name of the date column has to be provided:

splitter = SplitDateDataSplitter(date_column_name='shipping_date', split_date=pd.Timstamp('2016-01-01'))
X_train, X_test, y_train, y_test = splitter.split(X, y)

• The SortedDataSplitter requires a column with sortable values. Data are divided such that the test data set encompasses last fraction test_size. Sorting can be in ascending and descending order.

splitter = SortedDataSplitter(sortable_column_name='shipping_date', test_size=0.2, ascending=True)
X_train, X_test, y_train, y_test = splitter.split(X, y)

• Using RegressionQualityReport class a quality report for a regression model can be created as following:

splitter = SplitDateDataSplitter(date_column_name='shipping_date', split_date=pd.Timstamp('2016-01-01'))
model = sklearn.linear_model.LinearRegression()
quality_reporter = RegressionQualityReport(model, splitter)
report = quality_reporter.create_reports()

An exemplary report looks as follows:

{'metrics': 
    {'explained_variance_score': -6.018595041322246, 
     'mape': 0.3863636363636345, 
     'mean_absolute_error': 4.242424242424224, 
     'mean_squared_error': 29.426997245178825, 
     'median_absolute_error': 2.272727272727268, 
     'r2_score': -10.03512396694206}, 
 'data': 
    {'true': {3: 10, 4: 12, 2: 8}, 
     'predicted': {3: 12.272727272727268, 4: 20.999999999999964, 2: 6.545454545454561}}}  

Note that the model must have a model.fit and a model.predict function.

Available Features

Data Splitter

RandomDataSplitter: splits randomly TimeDeltaDataSplitter: uses data in last period of length as test data SplitDateDataSplitter: uses data with timestamp newer than split date as test data SortedDataSplitter: sorts data along given column and takes last fraction of size x_test as test data ByHorizon: produces a list of splits of temporal data such that each consecutive train set has one more observation and test set one less ByFrequency: produces a list of splits of temporal data such that the data is split by a series of dates on a specified frequency FixedDates: produces a list of splits of temporal data given a list of fixed dates.

Quality Report

RegressionQualityReport: creates a quality report for a regression model CrossValidationTimeSeriesQualityReport: creates a quality report for a time series model

Report Aggregation

• ModelComparisonReport aggregates reports using the list of derivatives of QualityReportBase, data, and experiment keys.
• ReportAggregator is designed to aggregate model quality reports from different models that potentially use different input/output data and can not fit into the framework of ModelComparisonReport. ReportAggregator operates with the list of classes that derive from ExperimentBase.
