Use evolutionary algorithms instead of gridsearch in scikit-learn

Overview

sklearn-deap

Use evolutionary algorithms instead of gridsearch in scikit-learn. This allows you to reduce the time required to find the best parameters for your estimator. Instead of trying out every possible combination of parameters, evolve only the combinations that give the best results.

Here is an ipython notebook comparing EvolutionaryAlgorithmSearchCV against GridSearchCV and RandomizedSearchCV.

It's implemented using deap library: https://github.com/deap/deap

Install

To install the library use pip:

pip install sklearn-deap

or clone the repo and just type the following on your shell:

python setup.py install

Usage examples

Example of usage:

import sklearn.datasets
import numpy as np
import random

data = sklearn.datasets.load_digits()
X = data["data"]
y = data["target"]

from sklearn.svm import SVC
from sklearn.model_selection import StratifiedKFold

paramgrid = {"kernel": ["rbf"],
             "C"     : np.logspace(-9, 9, num=25, base=10),
             "gamma" : np.logspace(-9, 9, num=25, base=10)}

random.seed(1)

from evolutionary_search import EvolutionaryAlgorithmSearchCV
cv = EvolutionaryAlgorithmSearchCV(estimator=SVC(),
                                   params=paramgrid,
                                   scoring="accuracy",
                                   cv=StratifiedKFold(n_splits=4),
                                   verbose=1,
                                   population_size=50,
                                   gene_mutation_prob=0.10,
                                   gene_crossover_prob=0.5,
                                   tournament_size=3,
                                   generations_number=5,
                                   n_jobs=4)
cv.fit(X, y)

Example for maximizing just some function:

from evolutionary_search import maximize

def func(x, y, m=1., z=False):
    return m * (np.exp(-(x**2 + y**2)) + float(z))

param_grid = {'x': [-1., 0., 1.], 'y': [-1., 0., 1.], 'z': [True, False]}
args = {'m': 1.}
best_params, best_score, score_results, _, _ = maximize(func, param_grid, args, verbose=False)

Output:

best_params = {'x': 0.0, 'y': 0.0, 'z': True}
best_score  = 2.0
score_results = (({'x': 1.0, 'y': -1.0, 'z': True}, 1.1353352832366128),

Comments
  • Added cv_results. Fixed some documentation.

    Added cv_results. Fixed some documentation.

    In init.py I added cv_results_ based on the logbook generated in _fit. This is a compatability feature with sklearn GridSearch and the like in interest of consistency.

    Other than that, I added a test file I used outside of ipython notebook which could eventually use the true python test library, and fixed some errors in the notebook which look like simple version errors.

  • `.cv_results_` does not include info from first generation

    `.cv_results_` does not include info from first generation

    I think there's a fenceposting/off-by-one error somewhere.

    When I pass in generations_number = 1, it's actually 0-indexed, and gives me 2 generations. Similarly, if I pass in 2 generations, I actually get 3.

    Then, when I examine the cv_results_ property, I noticed that I only get the results from all generations after the first generation (the 0-indexed generation).

    This is most apparently if you set generations_number = 1.

    I looked through the code quickly, but didn't see any obvious source of it. Hopefully someone who knows the library can find it more easily!

  • Better Parallelism

    Better Parallelism

    I wrote this because parallelism wasn't working on my Windows laptop. So I did some reading and found out, at least on windows, you need to declare your Pool from within a if __name__=="__main__" structure in order to prevent recurrent execution. Deap also identifies other kinds of multiprocessing maps you may want to pass to it, so now the user has every option to implement parallelism however they want by passing their "map" function to pmap.

    Yes, it's divergent from sklearn, but sklearn has a fully implemented special parallelism library for their n_jobs parameters that would be both a challenge and potentially incompatible with deap, so what I have implemented is deap's way of doing things.

  • Doubts about encoding correctness

    Doubts about encoding correctness

    I have some doubts about current parameter encoding (to chromosome) correctness.

    Let's assume that we have 2 categorical parameters f1 and f2:

    Enc f1  f2
    0000 a 1
    0001 a 2
    0010 a 3
    0011 a 4
    0100 a 5
    0101 b 1
    0110 b 2
    0111 b 3
    1000 b 4
    1001 b 5
    1010 c 1
    1011 c 2
    1100 c 3
    1101 c 4
    1110 c 5
    

    If we use any crossover operator, for example let's do 2 points crossover between some points:

    (a, 4) 0011    0111 (b, 3)
                x
    (c, 3) 1100    1000 (b, 4)
    

    After crossover we've got b, but both parents don't have b as first parameter.

  • What does it take to parallelize the search?

    What does it take to parallelize the search?

    Great tool! Allows me to drastically expand the search space over using GridSearchCV. Really promising for deep learning, as well as standard scikit-learn interfaced ML models.

    Because I'm searching over a large space, this obviously involves training a bunch of models, and doing a lot of computations. scikit-learn's model training parallelizes this to ease the pain somewhat.

    I tried using the toolbox.register('map', pool.map) approach as described out by deap, but didn't see any parallelization.

    Is there a different approach I should take instead? Or is that a feature that hasn't been built yet? If so, what are the steps needed to get parallelization working?

    Hi,

    I am trying to optimise a neural network (Keras, TensorFlow), but I'm getting an error: ValueError: Input contains NaN, infinity or a value too large for dtype('float32').

    I have checked my input data for NaNs, infities and large or small values. There aren't any. I have forced the input data to be np.float32 before passing it to .fit().

    I've used this algorithm before without any problems or special data prep, so I'm not sure where there error is creeping in.

    the relavent bit of the code is: codetxt.txt

    I should also say that when I manually try to just .fit() to my model, it works fine. The issue is something to do with how the cross valdation is working.

    The full traceback is:

  • Does not work with pipelines

    Does not work with pipelines

    For tuning a single estimator this tool is awesome. But the standard gridsearch can actually accept a pipeline as an estimator, which allows you to evaluate different classifiers as parameters.

    For some reason, this breaks with EvolutionaryAlgorithmSearchCV.

    For example, set a pipeline like this: pipe = Pipeline([ ('imputer', SimpleImputer(strategy='median')), ('scaler' , StandardScaler()), ('classify', LogisticRegression()) ])

    Then define a parameter grid to include different classifiers: param_grid_rf_big = [ {'classify': [RandomForestClassifier(),ExtraTreesClassifier()], 'classify__n_estimators': [500], 'classify__max_features': ['log2', 'sqrt', None], 'classify__min_samples_split': [2,3], 'classify__min_samples_leaf': [1,2,3], 'classify__criterion': ['gini',] } ]

    When you pass this to EvolutionaryAlgorithmSearchCV you should be able to set the estimator to 'pipe' and and the params to 'param_grid_rf_big' and let it evaluate. This works with gridsearchcv, but not with EvolutionaryAlgorithmSearchCV.

    stuck after gen 1...

    image

    I have some datasets where the search get stuck for ever on gen 1 for instance.. does it happen to you too? how can I figure out what is the problem? python is still running and using a lot of CPU... but after hours nothing happens. any idea what could be the issue?
