        Customized objective function.
57
58
59
        Should accept two parameters: preds, train_data,
        and return (grad, hess).

60
            preds : numpy 1-D array
61
                The predicted values.
62
63
                Predicted values are returned before any transformation,
                e.g. they are raw margin instead of probability of positive class for binary task.
64
65
            train_data : Dataset
                The training dataset.
66
            grad : list, numpy 1-D array or pandas Series
67
68
                The value of the first order derivative (gradient) of the loss
                with respect to the elements of preds for each sample point.
69
            hess : list, numpy 1-D array or pandas Series
70
71
                The value of the second order derivative (Hessian) of the loss
                with respect to the elements of preds for each sample point.
72
73
74
75
76

        For multi-class task, the preds is group by class_id first, then group by row_id.
        If you want to get i-th row preds in j-th class, the access way is score[j * num_data + i]
        and you should group grad and hess in this way as well.

    feval : callable, list of callable, or None, optional (default=None)

78
        Customized evaluation function.
79
        Each evaluation function should accept two parameters: preds, train_data,
80
        and return (eval_name, eval_result, is_higher_better) or list of such tuples.
81

82
            preds : numpy 1-D array
83
                The predicted values.
84
85
                If ``fobj`` is specified, predicted values are returned before any transformation,
                e.g. they are raw margin instead of probability of positive class for binary task in this case.
86
87
            train_data : Dataset
                The training dataset.
88
            eval_name : str
89
                The name of evaluation function (without whitespaces).
90
91
92
93
94
            eval_result : float
                The eval result.
            is_higher_better : bool
                Is eval result higher better, e.g. AUC is ``is_higher_better``.

95
96
        For multi-class task, the preds is group by class_id first, then group by row_id.
        If you want to get i-th row preds in j-th class, the access way is preds[j * num_data + i].
97
98
        To ignore the default metric corresponding to the used objective,
        set the ``metric`` parameter to the string ``"None"`` in ``params``.
99
    init_model : str, pathlib.Path, Booster or None, optional (default=None)
100
        Filename of LightGBM model or Booster instance used for continue training.
101
    feature_name : list of str, or 'auto', optional (default="auto")
102
103
        Feature names.
        If 'auto' and data is pandas DataFrame, data columns names are used.
104
    categorical_feature : list of str or int, or 'auto', optional (default="auto")
105
106
        Categorical features.
        If list of int, interpreted as indices.
107
        If list of str, interpreted as feature names (need to specify ``feature_name`` as well).
108
        If 'auto' and data is pandas DataFrame, pandas unordered categorical columns are used.
109
        All values in categorical features should be less than int32 max value (2147483647).
110
        Large values could be memory consuming. Consider using consecutive integers starting from zero.
111
        All negative values in categorical features will be treated as missing values.
112
        The output cannot be monotonically constrained with respect to a categorical feature.
113
    early_stopping_rounds : int or None, optional (default=None)
114
        Activates early stopping. The model will train until the validation score stops improving.
115
116
117
118
        Validation score needs to improve at least every ``early_stopping_rounds`` round(s)
        to continue training.
        Requires at least one validation data and one metric.
        If there's more than one, will check all of them. But the training data is ignored anyway.
119
        To check only the first metric, set the ``first_metric_only`` parameter to ``True`` in ``params``.
120
121
        The index of iteration that has the best performance will be saved in the ``best_iteration`` field
        if early stopping logic is enabled by setting ``early_stopping_rounds``.
122
    evals_result : dict or None, optional (default=None)
123
124
        Dictionary used to store all evaluation results of all the items in ``valid_sets``.
        This should be initialized outside of your call to ``train()`` and should be empty.
125
        Any initial contents of the dictionary will be deleted.

        .. rubric:: Example

129
130
        With a ``valid_sets`` = [valid_set, train_set],
        ``valid_names`` = ['eval', 'train']
131
132
        and a ``params`` = {'metric': 'logloss'}
        returns {'train': {'logloss': ['0.48253', '0.35953', ...]},
133
        'eval': {'logloss': ['0.480385', '0.357756', ...]}}.
134

135
136
137
    keep_training_booster : bool, optional (default=False)
        Whether the returned Booster will be used to keep training.
        If False, the returned value will be converted into _InnerPredictor before returning.
138
        This means you won't be able to use ``eval``, ``eval_train`` or ``eval_valid`` methods of the returned Booster.
139
140
        When your model is very large and cause the memory error,
        you can try to set this param to ``True`` to avoid the model conversion performed during the internal call of ``model_to_string``.
141
        You can still use _InnerPredictor as ``init_model`` for future continue training.
142
    callbacks : list of callable, or None, optional (default=None)
143
        List of callback functions that are applied at each iteration.
144
        See Callbacks in Python API for more information.

wxchan's avatar
wxchan committed
415
        Number of boosting iterations.
416
    folds : generator or iterator of (train_idx, test_idx) tuples, scikit-learn splitter object or None, optional (default=None)
417
        If generator or iterator, it should yield the train and test indices for each fold.
418
        If object, it should be one of the scikit-learn splitter classes
419
        (https://scikit-learn.org/stable/modules/classes.html#splitter-classes)
420
        and have ``split`` method.
421
        This argument has highest priority over other data split arguments.
422
    nfold : int, optional (default=5)
wxchan's avatar
wxchan committed
423
        Number of folds in CV.
424
425
    stratified : bool, optional (default=True)
        Whether to perform stratified sampling.
426
    shuffle : bool, optional (default=True)
427
        Whether to shuffle before splitting data.
428
    metrics : str, list of str, or None, optional (default=None)
429
430
431
        Evaluation metrics to be monitored while CV.
        If not None, the metric in ``params`` will be overridden.
    fobj : callable or None, optional (default=None)
432
433
434
435
        Customized objective function.
        Should accept two parameters: preds, train_data,
        and return (grad, hess).

436
            preds : numpy 1-D array
437
                The predicted values.
438
439
                Predicted values are returned before any transformation,
                e.g. they are raw margin instead of probability of positive class for binary task.
440
441
            train_data : Dataset
                The training dataset.
442
            grad : list, numpy 1-D array or pandas Series
443
444
                The value of the first order derivative (gradient) of the loss
                with respect to the elements of preds for each sample point.
445
            hess : list, numpy 1-D array or pandas Series
446
447
                The value of the second order derivative (Hessian) of the loss
                with respect to the elements of preds for each sample point.
448
449
450
451
452

        For multi-class task, the preds is group by class_id first, then group by row_id.
        If you want to get i-th row preds in j-th class, the access way is score[j * num_data + i]
        and you should group grad and hess in this way as well.

453
    feval : callable, list of callable, or None, optional (default=None)
454
        Customized evaluation function.
455
        Each evaluation function should accept two parameters: preds, train_data,
456
        and return (eval_name, eval_result, is_higher_better) or list of such tuples.
457

458
            preds : numpy 1-D array
459
                The predicted values.
460
461
                If ``fobj`` is specified, predicted values are returned before any transformation,
                e.g. they are raw margin instead of probability of positive class for binary task in this case.
462
463
            train_data : Dataset
                The training dataset.
464
            eval_name : str
Andrew Ziem's avatar
Andrew Ziem committed
465
                The name of evaluation function (without whitespace).
466
467
468
469
470
            eval_result : float
                The eval result.
            is_higher_better : bool
                Is eval result higher better, e.g. AUC is ``is_higher_better``.

471
472
        For multi-class task, the preds is group by class_id first, then group by row_id.
        If you want to get i-th row preds in j-th class, the access way is preds[j * num_data + i].
473
474
        To ignore the default metric corresponding to the used objective,
        set ``metrics`` to the string ``"None"``.
475
    init_model : str, pathlib.Path, Booster or None, optional (default=None)
476
        Filename of LightGBM model or Booster instance used for continue training.
477
    feature_name : list of str, or 'auto', optional (default="auto")
478
479
        Feature names.
        If 'auto' and data is pandas DataFrame, data columns names are used.
480
    categorical_feature : list of str or int, or 'auto', optional (default="auto")
481
482
        Categorical features.
        If list of int, interpreted as indices.
483
        If list of str, interpreted as feature names (need to specify ``feature_name`` as well).
484
        If 'auto' and data is pandas DataFrame, pandas unordered categorical columns are used.
485
        All values in categorical features should be less than int32 max value (2147483647).
486
        Large values could be memory consuming. Consider using consecutive integers starting from zero.
487
        All negative values in categorical features will be treated as missing values.
488
        The output cannot be monotonically constrained with respect to a categorical feature.
489
    early_stopping_rounds : int or None, optional (default=None)
490
491
492
493
        Activates early stopping.
        CV score needs to improve at least every ``early_stopping_rounds`` round(s)
        to continue.
        Requires at least one metric. If there's more than one, will check all of them.
494
        To check only the first metric, set the ``first_metric_only`` parameter to ``True`` in ``params``.
495
        Last entry in evaluation history is the one from the best iteration.
496
497
    fpreproc : callable or None, optional (default=None)
        Preprocessing function that takes (dtrain, dtest, params)

500
        Seed used to generate the folds (passed to numpy.random.seed).
501
    callbacks : list of callable, or None, optional (default=None)
502
        List of callback functions that are applied at each iteration.
503
        See Callbacks in Python API for more information.
504
505
506
    eval_train_metric : bool, optional (default=False)
        Whether to display the train metric in progress.
        The score of the metric is calculated again after each training step, so there is some impact on performance.
507
508
    return_cvbooster : bool, optional (default=False)
        Whether to return Booster models trained on each fold through ``CVBooster``.
