Elastic Net model with iterative fitting along a regularization path.
See glossary entry for :term:`cross-validation estimator`.
Read more in the :ref:`User Guide <elastic_net>`.
Parameters ---------- l1_ratio : float or list of float, default=0.5 float between 0 and 1 passed to ElasticNet (scaling between l1 and l2 penalties). For ``l1_ratio = 0`` the penalty is an L2 penalty. For ``l1_ratio = 1`` it is an L1 penalty. For ``0 < l1_ratio < 1``, the penalty is a combination of L1 and L2 This parameter can be a list, in which case the different values are tested by cross-validation and the one giving the best prediction score is used. Note that a good choice of list of values for l1_ratio is often to put more values close to 1 (i.e. Lasso) and less close to 0 (i.e. Ridge), as in ``.1, .5, .7,
.9, .95, .99, 1
``
eps : float, default=1e-3 Length of the path. ``eps=1e-3`` means that ``alpha_min / alpha_max = 1e-3``.
n_alphas : int, default=100 Number of alphas along the regularization path, used for each l1_ratio.
alphas : ndarray, default=None List of alphas where to compute the models. If None alphas are set automatically
fit_intercept : bool, default=True whether to calculate the intercept for this model. If set to false, no intercept will be used in calculations (i.e. data is expected to be centered).
normalize : bool, default=False This parameter is ignored when ``fit_intercept`` is set to False. If True, the regressors X will be normalized before regression by subtracting the mean and dividing by the l2-norm. If you wish to standardize, please use :class:`sklearn.preprocessing.StandardScaler` before calling ``fit`` on an estimator with ``normalize=False``.
precompute : 'auto', bool or array-like of shape (n_features, n_features), default='auto' Whether to use a precomputed Gram matrix to speed up calculations. If set to ``'auto'`` let us decide. The Gram matrix can also be passed as argument.
max_iter : int, default=1000 The maximum number of iterations
tol : float, default=1e-4 The tolerance for the optimization: if the updates are smaller than ``tol``, the optimization code checks the dual gap for optimality and continues until it is smaller than ``tol``.
cv : int, cross-validation generator or iterable, default=None Determines the cross-validation splitting strategy. Possible inputs for cv are:
- None, to use the default 5-fold cross-validation,
- int, to specify the number of folds.
- :term:`CV splitter`,
- An iterable yielding (train, test) splits as arrays of indices.
For int/None inputs, :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.
copy_X : bool, default=True If ``True``, X will be copied; else, it may be overwritten.
verbose : bool or int, default=0 Amount of verbosity.
n_jobs : int, default=None Number of CPUs to use during the cross validation. ``None`` means 1 unless in a :obj:`joblib.parallel_backend` context. ``-1`` means using all processors. See :term:`Glossary <n_jobs>` for more details.
positive : bool, default=False When set to ``True``, forces the coefficients to be positive.
random_state : int, RandomState instance, default=None The seed of the pseudo random number generator that selects a random feature to update. Used when ``selection`` == 'random'. Pass an int for reproducible output across multiple function calls. See :term:`Glossary <random_state>`.
selection : 'cyclic', 'random'
, default='cyclic' If set to 'random', a random coefficient is updated every iteration rather than looping over features sequentially by default. This (setting to 'random') often leads to significantly faster convergence especially when tol is higher than 1e-4.
Attributes ---------- alpha_ : float The amount of penalization chosen by cross validation
l1_ratio_ : float The compromise between l1 and l2 penalization chosen by cross validation
coef_ : ndarray of shape (n_features,) or (n_targets, n_features) Parameter vector (w in the cost function formula),
intercept_ : float or ndarray of shape (n_targets, n_features) Independent term in the decision function.
mse_path_ : ndarray of shape (n_l1_ratio, n_alpha, n_folds) Mean square error for the test set on each fold, varying l1_ratio and alpha.
alphas_ : ndarray of shape (n_alphas,) or (n_l1_ratio, n_alphas) The grid of alphas used for fitting, for each l1_ratio.
n_iter_ : int number of iterations run by the coordinate descent solver to reach the specified tolerance for the optimal alpha.
Examples -------- >>> from sklearn.linear_model import ElasticNetCV >>> from sklearn.datasets import make_regression
>>> X, y = make_regression(n_features=2, random_state=0) >>> regr = ElasticNetCV(cv=5, random_state=0) >>> regr.fit(X, y) ElasticNetCV(cv=5, random_state=0) >>> print(regr.alpha_) 0.199... >>> print(regr.intercept_) 0.398... >>> print(regr.predict([0, 0]
)) 0.398...
Notes ----- For an example, see :ref:`examples/linear_model/plot_lasso_model_selection.py <sphx_glr_auto_examples_linear_model_plot_lasso_model_selection.py>`.
To avoid unnecessary memory duplication the X argument of the fit method should be directly passed as a Fortran-contiguous numpy array.
The parameter l1_ratio corresponds to alpha in the glmnet R package while alpha corresponds to the lambda parameter in glmnet. More specifically, the optimization objective is::
1 / (2 * n_samples) * ||y - Xw||^2_2
- alpha * l1_ratio * ||w||_1
- 0.5 * alpha * (1 - l1_ratio) * ||w||^2_2
If you are interested in controlling the L1 and L2 penalty separately, keep in mind that this is equivalent to::
a * L1 + b * L2
for::
alpha = a + b and l1_ratio = a / (a + b).
