linear-tree

A python library to build Model Trees with Linear Models at the leaves.

Overview

Linear Model Trees combine the learning ability of Decision Tree with the predictive and explicative power of Linear Models. Like in tree-based algorithms, the data are split according to simple decision rules. The goodness of slits is evaluated in gain terms fitting Linear Models in the nodes. This implies that the models in the leaves are linear instead of constant approximations like in classical Decision Trees.

linear-tree is developed to be fully integrable with scikit-learn. LinearTreeRegressor and LinearTreeClassifier are provided as scikit-learn BaseEstimator. They are wrappers that build a decision tree on the data fitting a linear estimator from sklearn.linear_model. All the models available in sklearn.linear_model can be used as linear estimators.

Installation

pip install linear-tree

The module depends on NumPy, SciPy and Scikit-Learn (>=0.23.0). Python 3.6 or above is supported.

Usage

Regression
from sklearn.linear_model import LinearRegression
from lineartree import LinearTreeRegressor
from sklearn.datasets import make_regression
X, y = make_regression(n_samples=100, n_features=4,
                       n_informative=2, n_targets=1,
                       random_state=0, shuffle=False)
regr = LinearTreeRegressor(base_estimator=LinearRegression())
regr.fit(X, y)
Classification
from sklearn.linear_model import RidgeClassifier
from lineartree import LinearTreeClassifier
from sklearn.datasets import make_classification
X, y = make_classification(n_samples=100, n_features=4,
                           n_informative=2, n_redundant=0,
                           random_state=0, shuffle=False)
clf = LinearTreeClassifier(base_estimator=RidgeClassifier())
clf.fit(X, y)

  • finding breakpoint

    finding breakpoint

    Hello,

    thank you for your nice tool. I am using the function LinearTreeRegressor to draw a continuous piecewise linear. It works well, I am wondering, is it possible to show the location (the coordinates) of the breakpoints?

    thank you

  • Allow the hyperparameter

    Allow the hyperparameter "max_depth = 0".

    Thanks for the good library.

    When using LinearTreeRegressor, I think that max_depth is often optimized by cross-validation.

    This library allows max_depth in the range 1-20. However, depending on the dataset, simple linear regression may be suitable. Even in such a dataset, max_depth is forced to be 1 or more, so Simple Linear Regression cannot be applied properly with LinearTreeRegressor.

    • Of course, it is appropriate to use sklearn.linear_model.LinearRegression for such datasets.

    My suggestion is to change to a program that uses base_estimator to perform regression when "max_depth = 0". With this change, LinearTreeRegressor can flexibly respond to both segmented regression and simple regression by changing hyperparameters.

    Error when running with multiple jobs: unexpected keyword argument 'target_offload'

    I have been using your library for quite a while and am super happy with it. So first, thanks a lot!

    Lately, I used my framework (which also uses your library) on modern many core server with many jobs. Worked fine. Now I have updated everything via pip and with 8 jobs on my MacBook, I got the following error.

    This error does not occur when using only a single job (I pass the number of jobs to n_jobs).

    I cannot nail the down the actual problem, but since it occurred right after the upgrade, I assume this might be the reason?

    Am I doing something wrong here?

  • Option to specify features to use for splitting and for leaf models

    Option to specify features to use for splitting and for leaf models

    Added two additional parameters:

    • split_features: Indices of features that can be used for splitting. Default all.
    • linear_features: Indices of features that are used by the linear models in the leaves. Default all except for categorical features

    This implements a feature requested in https://github.com/cerlymarco/linear-tree/issues/2

    Potential performance improvement: Currently the code still computes bins for all features and not only for those used for splitting.

  • Rationale for rounding during _parallel_binning_fit and _grow

    Rationale for rounding during _parallel_binning_fit and _grow

    I noticed that the implementations of _parallel_binning_fit and _grow internally round loss values to 5 decimal places. This makes the regression results dependent on the scale of the labels, as data with a lower natural loss value will result in many different splits of the data having the same loss when rounded to 5 decimal places. Is there a reason why this is the case?

    This behavior can be observed by fitting a LinearTreeRegressor using the default loss function and multiplying the scale of the labels by a small number (like 1e-9). This will result in the regressor no longer learning any splits.

  • Performance and possibility to split only on subset of features

    Performance and possibility to split only on subset of features

    Hey, I have been playing around a lot with your linear trees. Like them very much. Thanks!

    Nevertheless, I am somewhat disappointed by the runtime performance. Compared to XGBoost Regressors (I know it's not a fair comparison) or linear regressions (also not fair), the linear tree is reeeeeaally slow. 50k observations, 80 features: 2s for linear regression, 27s for XGBoost, and 300s for the linear tree. Have you seen similar runtimes or might I be using it wrong?

    Another aspects that's interesting to me is the question whether is possibe to limit the features which are used for splits. I haven't found it in the code. Any change to see it in the future?

    Also, sorry, I don't actually what the best open source etiquette is. If I'm supposed to create a pull request with a proposed fix instead of just mentioning it then feel free to correct me.

    Potential bug in LinearForestClassifier 'predict_proba'

    Hello! Thank you for useful package!

    I think I might have found a potential bug in LinearForestClassifier.

    I expected 'predict_proba' to use 'self.decision_function', similarly to 'predict' - to include predictions from both estimators (base + forest). Is that a potential bug or am I in wrong here?
