+1 for tackling Bagging first. It's not hard if you are used to the sklearn API. Alex On Tue, Oct 16, 2012 at 5:16 PM, Mathieu Blondel wrote: > Hi, > > There used to be a few interesting github PRs, unfortunately closed or > stalled. > > Adaboost: > https://github.com/scikit-learn/scikit-learn/p

Hi, There used to be a few interesting github PRs, unfortunately closed or stalled. Adaboost: https://github.com/scikit-learn/scikit-learn/pull/522 Bagging: https://github.com/scikit-learn/scikit-learn/pull/583 Functional gradient boosting: https://github.com/scikit-learn/scikit-learn/pull/492

Thanks for the responses. I'm very interested in being able to use base learners other than decision trees (actually that's what I'm most interested in, since coming across http://elf-project.sourceforge.net/). On Oct 16, 2012, at 11:30 AM, Olivier Grisel wrote: > 2012/10/16 Peter Prettenhofer

Hi Siddhant, currently, we only provide two ensemble techniques: Random/Extra Forest and Gradient Boosted Regression Trees - both use decision trees as weak learners. Gradient Boosting itself can be used with different base learners but AFAIK it hardly is*. Unfortunately, scikit-learn lacks class

Hi Siddhant. Depending on how much work you want to invest, it is possible to implement this, even though it is currently not supported. Cheers, Andy Am 16.10.2012 10:49, schrieb Gilles Louppe: > Hi Siddhant, > > This is not yet supported unfortunately. > > Best, > > Gilles > > On 15 October 2012

[Scikit-learn-general] User defined classifier in Ensemble Learning

2012-10-16 Thread Siddhant Goel
Hi people, Does scikit-learn support plugging in user defined classifiers in its ensemble learning framework? I went through the documentation but could only find decision trees being used a weak learners. Is it possible to define our own classifiers and then use an ensemble learning strategy u
