prediction-flow 0.1.5

Deep-Learning based CTR models implemented by PyTorch

prediction-flow

prediction-flow is a Python package providing modern Deep-Learning based CTR models. Models are implemented by PyTorch.

how to use

• Install using pip.

pip install prediction-flow

feature

how to define feature

There are two parameters for all feature types, name and column_flow. The name parameter is used to index the column raw data from input data frame. The column_flow parameter is a single transformer of a list of transformers. The transformer is used to pre-process the column data before training the model.

• dense number feature

Number('age', StandardScaler())
Number('ctr', None)

• sparse category feature

Category('movieId', CategoryEncoder(min_cnt=1))

• var length sequence feature

Sequence('genres', SequenceEncoder(sep='|', min_cnt=1))

transformer

The following transformers are provided now.

transformer	supported feature type	detail
StandardScaler	Number	Wrapper of scikit-learn's StandardScaler. Null value must be filled in advance.
LogTransformer	Number	Log scaler. Null value must be filled in advance.
CategoryEncoder	Category	Converting str value to int. Null value must be filled in advance using '__UNKNOWN__'.
SequenceEncoder	Sequence	Converting sequence str value to int. Null value must be filled in advance using '__UNKNOWN__'.

accuracy

acknowledge and reference

• Referring the design from DeepCTR, the features are divided into dense (class Number), sparse (class Category), sequence (class Sequence) types.
