xgp 0.1.1

XGP Python package with a scikit-learn interface

XGP Python package

This repository contains Python bindings to the XGP library. It is a simple wrapper that calls the XGP dynamic shared library and exposes a scikit-learn interface.

Documentation

Please refer to the Python section of the XGP website.

Installation

Installation instructions are available here.

Quick start

>>> from sklearn import datasets
>>> from sklearn import metrics
>>> from sklearn import model_selection
>>> import xgp

>>> X, y = datasets.load_boston(return_X_y=True)
>>> X_train, X_test, y_train, y_test = model_selection.train_test_split(X, y, random_state=42)

>>> model = xgp.XGPRegressor(
...    flavor='boosting',
...    loss_metric='mse',
...    funcs='add,sub,mul,div',
...    n_individuals=50,
...    n_generations=20,
...    parsimony_coefficient=0.01,
...    n_rounds=8,
...    random_state=42,
... )

>>> model = model.fit(X_train, y_train, eval_set=(X_test, y_test), verbose=True)

>>> metrics.mean_squared_error(y_train, model.predict(X_train))  # doctest: +ELLIPSIS
17.794685...

>>> metrics.mean_squared_error(y_test, model.predict(X_test))  # doctest: +ELLIPSIS
17.337693...

This will also produce the following output in the shell:
