A python package for simultaneous Hyperparameters Tuning and Features Selection for Gradient Boosting Models.

shap-hypetune

A python package for simultaneous Hyperparameters Tuning and Features Selection for Gradient Boosting Models.

Overview

Hyperparameters tuning and features selection are two common steps in every machine learning pipeline. Most of the time they are computed separately and independently. This may result in suboptimal performances and in a more time expensive process.

shap-hypetune aims to combine hyperparameters tuning and features selection in a single pipeline optimizing the optimal number of features while searching for the optimal parameters configuration. Hyperparameters Tuning or Features Selection can also be carried out as standalone operations.

shap-hypetune main features:

• designed for gradient boosting models, as LGBModel or XGBModel;
• effective in both classification or regression tasks;
• customizable training process, supporting early-stopping and all the other fitting options available in the standard algorithms api;
• ranking feature selection algorithms: Recursive Feature Elimination (RFE) or Boruta;
• classical boosting based feature importances or SHAP feature importances (the later can be computed also on the eval_set);
• apply grid-search or random-search.

Installation

pip install shap-hypetune

lightgbm, xgboost are not needed requirements. The module depends only on NumPy and shap. Python 3.6 or above is supported.

Usage

Only Hyperparameters Tuning

• GRID-SEARCH

param_grid = {'n_estimators': 150,
    	      'learning_rate': [0.2, 0.1],
              'num_leaves': [25, 30, 35],
    	      'max_depth': [10, 12]}

model = BoostSearch(LGBMClassifier(), param_grid=param_grid)
model.fit(X_train, y_train, eval_set=[(X_valid, y_valid)], early_stopping_rounds=6, verbose=0)

• RANDOM-SEARCH

param_dist = {'n_estimators': 150,
    	      'learning_rate': stats.uniform(0.09, 0.25),
    	      'num_leaves': stats.randint(20,40),
    	      'max_depth': [10, 12]}

model = BoostSearch(LGBMClassifier(), param_grid=param_dist, n_iter=10, sampling_seed=0)
model.fit(X_train, y_train, eval_set=[(X_valid, y_valid)], early_stopping_rounds=6, verbose=0)

Only Features Selection

• RFE

model = BoostRFE(LGBMClassifier(),
                 min_features_to_select=1, step=1)
model.fit(X_train, y_train, eval_set=[(X_valid, y_valid)], early_stopping_rounds=6, verbose=0)

• Boruta

model = BoostBoruta(LGBMClassifier(),
                    max_iter=100, perc=100)
model.fit(X_train, y_train, eval_set=[(X_valid, y_valid)], early_stopping_rounds=6, verbose=0)

Only Features Selection with SHAP

• RFE with SHAP

model = BoostRFE(LGBMClassifier(), 
                 min_features_to_select=1, step=1,
                 importance_type='shap_importances', train_importance=False)
model.fit(X_train, y_train, eval_set=[(X_valid, y_valid)], early_stopping_rounds=6, verbose=0)

• Boruta with SHAP

model = BoostBoruta(LGBMClassifier(),
                    max_iter=100, perc=100,
                    importance_type='shap_importances', train_importance=False)
model.fit(X_train, y_train, eval_set=[(X_valid, y_valid)], early_stopping_rounds=6, verbose=0)

Hyperparameters Tuning + Features Selection

• RANDOM-SEARCH + RFE

param_dist = {'n_estimators': 150,

    	      'num_leaves': stats.randint(20,40),
    	      'max_depth': [10, 12]}

    	      'max_depth': [10, 12]}

All the examples are reproducible in regression contexts and with XGBModel.
