Logo

Osprey is an easy-to-use tool for hyperparameter optimization for machine learning algorithms in python using scikit-learn (or using scikit-learn compatible APIs).

Each Osprey experiment combines an dataset, an estimator, a search space (and engine), cross validation and asynchronous serialization for distributed parallel optimization of model hyperparameters.

Installation

If you have an Anaconda Python distribution, installation is as easy as:

$ conda install -c omnia osprey

You can also install Osprey with pip:

$ pip install osprey

Alternatively, you can install directly from this GitHub repo:

$ git clone https://github.com/msmbuilder/osprey.git
$ cd osprey && git checkout 1.1.0
$ python setup.py install

Example using MSMBuilder

Below is an example of an osprey config file to cross validate Markov state models based on varying the number of clusters and dihedral angles used in a model:

estimator:
  eval_scope: msmbuilder
  eval: |
    Pipeline([
        ('featurizer', DihedralFeaturizer(types=['phi', 'psi'])),
        ('cluster', MiniBatchKMeans()),
        ('msm', MarkovStateModel(n_timescales=5, verbose=False)),
    ])

search_space:
  cluster__n_clusters:
    min: 10
    max: 100
    type: int
  featurizer__types:
    choices:
      - ['phi', 'psi']
      - ['phi', 'psi', 'chi1']
   type: enum

cv: 5

dataset_loader:
  name: mdtraj
  params:
    trajectories: ~/local/msmbuilder/Tutorial/XTC/*/*.xtc
    topology: ~/local/msmbuilder/Tutorial/native.pdb
    stride: 1

trials:
    uri: sqlite:///osprey-trials.db

Then run osprey worker. You can run multiple parallel instances of osprey worker simultaneously on a cluster too.

$ osprey worker config.yaml
