Evaluate metric(s) by cross-validation and also record fit/score times.
Read more in the :ref:`User Guide <multimetric_cross_validation>`.
Parameters ---------- estimator : estimator object implementing 'fit' The object to use to fit the data.
X : array-like The data to fit. Can be for example a list, or an array.
y : array-like, optional, default: None The target variable to try to predict in the case of supervised learning.
groups : array-like, with shape (n_samples,), optional Group labels for the samples used while splitting the dataset into train/test set. Only used in conjunction with a 'Group' :term:`cv` instance (e.g., :class:`GroupKFold`).
scoring : string, callable, list/tuple, dict or None, default: None A single string (see :ref:`scoring_parameter`) or a callable (see :ref:`scoring`) to evaluate the predictions on the test set.
For evaluating multiple metrics, either give a list of (unique) strings or a dict with names as keys and callables as values.
NOTE that when using custom scorers, each scorer should return a single value. Metric functions returning a list/array of values can be wrapped into multiple scorers that return one value each.
See :ref:`multimetric_grid_search` for an example.
If None, the estimator's score method is used.
cv : int, cross-validation generator or an iterable, optional Determines the cross-validation splitting strategy. Possible inputs for cv are:
- None, to use the default 5-fold cross validation,
- integer, to specify the number of folds in a `(Stratified)KFold`,
- :term:`CV splitter`,
- An iterable yielding (train, test) splits as arrays of indices.
For integer/None inputs, if the estimator is a classifier and ``y`` is either binary or multiclass, :class:`StratifiedKFold` is used. In all other cases, :class:`KFold` is used.
Refer :ref:`User Guide <cross_validation>` for the various cross-validation strategies that can be used here.
.. versionchanged:: 0.22 ``cv`` default value if None changed from 3-fold to 5-fold.
n_jobs : int or None, optional (default=None) The number of CPUs to use to do the computation. ``None`` means 1 unless in a :obj:`joblib.parallel_backend` context. ``-1`` means using all processors. See :term:`Glossary <n_jobs>` for more details.
verbose : integer, optional The verbosity level.
fit_params : dict, optional Parameters to pass to the fit method of the estimator.
pre_dispatch : int, or string, optional Controls the number of jobs that get dispatched during parallel execution. Reducing this number can be useful to avoid an explosion of memory consumption when more jobs get dispatched than CPUs can process. This parameter can be:
- None, in which case all the jobs are immediately created and spawned. Use this for lightweight and fast-running jobs, to avoid delays due to on-demand spawning of the jobs
- An int, giving the exact number of total jobs that are spawned
- A string, giving an expression as a function of n_jobs, as in '2*n_jobs'
return_train_score : boolean, default=False Whether to include train scores. Computing training scores is used to get insights on how different parameter settings impact the overfitting/underfitting trade-off. However computing the scores on the training set can be computationally expensive and is not strictly required to select the parameters that yield the best generalization performance.
return_estimator : boolean, default False Whether to return the estimators fitted on each split.
error_score : 'raise' or numeric Value to assign to the score if an error occurs in estimator fitting. If set to 'raise', the error is raised. If a numeric value is given, FitFailedWarning is raised. This parameter does not affect the refit step, which will always raise the error.
Returns ------- scores : dict of float arrays of shape (n_splits,) Array of scores of the estimator for each run of the cross validation.
A dict of arrays containing the score/time arrays for each scorer is returned. The possible keys for this ``dict`` are:
``test_score`` The score array for test scores on each cv split. Suffix ``_score`` in ``test_score`` changes to a specific metric like ``test_r2`` or ``test_auc`` if there are multiple scoring metrics in the scoring parameter. ``train_score`` The score array for train scores on each cv split. Suffix ``_score`` in ``train_score`` changes to a specific metric like ``train_r2`` or ``train_auc`` if there are multiple scoring metrics in the scoring parameter. This is available only if ``return_train_score`` parameter is ``True``. ``fit_time`` The time for fitting the estimator on the train set for each cv split. ``score_time`` The time for scoring the estimator on the test set for each cv split. (Note time for scoring on the train set is not included even if ``return_train_score`` is set to ``True`` ``estimator`` The estimator objects for each cv split. This is available only if ``return_estimator`` parameter is set to ``True``.
