    """Perform the training with given parameters.

    Parameters
    ----------
    params : dict
        Parameters for training.
    train_set : Dataset
        Data to be trained on.
    num_boost_round : int, optional (default=100)
        Number of boosting iterations.
    valid_sets : list of Datasets or None, optional (default=None)
        List of data to be evaluated on during training.
    valid_names : list of strings or None, optional (default=None)
        Names of ``valid_sets``.
    fobj : callable or None, optional (default=None)
        Customized objective function.
        Should accept two parameters: preds, train_data,
        and return (grad, hess).

            preds : list or numpy 1-D array
                The predicted values.
            train_data : Dataset
                The training dataset.
            grad : list or numpy 1-D array
                The value of the first order derivative (gradient) for each sample point.
            hess : list or numpy 1-D array
                The value of the second order derivative (Hessian) for each sample point.

        For binary task, the preds is margin.
        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 functions or None, optional (default=None)
        Customized evaluation function.
        Each evaluation function should accept two parameters: preds, train_data,
        and return (eval_name, eval_result, is_higher_better) or list of such tuples.

            preds : list or numpy 1-D array
                The predicted values.
            train_data : Dataset
                The training dataset.
            eval_name : string
                The name of evaluation function (without whitespaces).
            eval_result : float
                The eval result.
            is_higher_better : bool
                Is eval result higher better, e.g. AUC is ``is_higher_better``.

        For binary task, the preds is probability of positive class (or margin in case of specified ``fobj``).
        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].
        To ignore the default metric corresponding to the used objective,
        set the ``metric`` parameter to the string ``"None"`` in ``params``.
    init_model : string, Booster or None, optional (default=None)
        Filename of LightGBM model or Booster instance used for continue training.
    feature_name : list of strings or 'auto', optional (default="auto")
        Feature names.
        If 'auto' and data is pandas DataFrame, data columns names are used.
    categorical_feature : list of strings or int, or 'auto', optional (default="auto")
        Categorical features.
        If list of int, interpreted as indices.
        If list of strings, interpreted as feature names (need to specify ``feature_name`` as well).
        If 'auto' and data is pandas DataFrame, pandas unordered categorical columns are used.
        All values in categorical features should be less than int32 max value (2147483647).
        Large values could be memory consuming. Consider using consecutive integers starting from zero.
        All negative values in categorical features will be treated as missing values.
        The output cannot be monotonically constrained with respect to a categorical feature.
    early_stopping_rounds : int or None, optional (default=None)
        Activates early stopping. The model will train until the validation score stops improving.
        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.
        To check only the first metric, set the ``first_metric_only`` parameter to ``True`` in ``params``.
        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``.
    evals_result: dict or None, optional (default=None)
        This dictionary used to store all evaluation results of all the items in ``valid_sets``.

        .. rubric:: Example

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

    verbose_eval : bool or int, optional (default=True)
        Requires at least one validation data.
        If True, the eval metric on the valid set is printed at each boosting stage.
        If int, the eval metric on the valid set is printed at every ``verbose_eval`` boosting stage.
        The last boosting stage or the boosting stage found by using ``early_stopping_rounds`` is also printed.

        .. rubric:: Example

        With ``verbose_eval`` = 4 and at least one item in ``valid_sets``,
        an evaluation metric is printed every 4 (instead of 1) boosting stages.

    learning_rates : list, callable or None, optional (default=None)
        List of learning rates for each boosting round
        or a customized function that calculates ``learning_rate``
        in terms of current number of round (e.g. yields learning rate decay).
    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.
        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``.
        You can still use _InnerPredictor as ``init_model`` for future continue training.
    callbacks : list of callables or None, optional (default=None)
        List of callback functions that are applied at each iteration.
        See Callbacks in Python API for more information.

    Returns
    -------
    booster : Booster
        The trained Booster model.

        If not None, the metric in ``params`` will be overridden.
    fobj : callable or None, optional (default=None)
        Customized objective function.
        Should accept two parameters: preds, train_data,
        and return (grad, hess).

            preds : list or numpy 1-D array
                The predicted values.
            train_data : Dataset
                The training dataset.
            grad : list or numpy 1-D array
                The value of the first order derivative (gradient) for each sample point.
            hess : list or numpy 1-D array
                The value of the second order derivative (Hessian) for each sample point.

        For binary task, the preds is margin.
        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 functions or None, optional (default=None)
        Customized evaluation function.
        Each evaluation function should accept two parameters: preds, train_data,
        and return (eval_name, eval_result, is_higher_better) or list of such tuples.

            preds : list or numpy 1-D array
                The predicted values.
            train_data : Dataset
                The training dataset.
            eval_name : string
                The name of evaluation function (without whitespaces).
            eval_result : float
                The eval result.
            is_higher_better : bool
                Is eval result higher better, e.g. AUC is ``is_higher_better``.

        For binary task, the preds is probability of positive class (or margin in case of specified ``fobj``).
        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].
        To ignore the default metric corresponding to the used objective,
        set ``metrics`` to the string ``"None"``.
    init_model : string, Booster or None, optional (default=None)
        Filename of LightGBM model or Booster instance used for continue training.
    feature_name : list of strings or 'auto', optional (default="auto")
        Feature names.
        If 'auto' and data is pandas DataFrame, data columns names are used.
    categorical_feature : list of strings or int, or 'auto', optional (default="auto")
        Categorical features.
        If list of int, interpreted as indices.
        If list of strings, interpreted as feature names (need to specify ``feature_name`` as well).
        If 'auto' and data is pandas DataFrame, pandas unordered categorical columns are used.
        All values in categorical features should be less than int32 max value (2147483647).
        Large values could be memory consuming. Consider using consecutive integers starting from zero.
        All negative values in categorical features will be treated as missing values.
        The output cannot be monotonically constrained with respect to a categorical feature.
    early_stopping_rounds : int or None, optional (default=None)
        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.
        To check only the first metric, set the ``first_metric_only`` parameter to ``True`` in ``params``.
        Last entry in evaluation history is the one from the best iteration.
    fpreproc : callable or None, optional (default=None)
        Preprocessing function that takes (dtrain, dtest, params)
        and returns transformed versions of those.
    verbose_eval : bool, int, or None, optional (default=None)
        Whether to display the progress.
        If None, progress will be displayed when np.ndarray is returned.
        If True, progress will be displayed at every boosting stage.
        If int, progress will be displayed at every given ``verbose_eval`` boosting stage.
    show_stdv : bool, optional (default=True)
        Whether to display the standard deviation in progress.
        Results are not affected by this parameter, and always contain std.
    seed : int, optional (default=0)
        Seed used to generate the folds (passed to numpy.random.seed).
    callbacks : list of callables or None, optional (default=None)
        List of callback functions that are applied at each iteration.
        See Callbacks in Python API for more information.
    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.
    return_cvbooster : bool, optional (default=False)
        Whether to return Booster models trained on each fold through ``CVBooster``.

    Returns
    -------
    eval_hist : dict
        Evaluation history.
        The dictionary has the following format:
        {'metric1-mean': [values], 'metric1-stdv': [values],
        'metric2-mean': [values], 'metric2-stdv': [values],
        ...}.
        If ``return_cvbooster=True``, also returns trained boosters via ``cvbooster`` key.
