Methods

clear(param)	Clears a param from the param map if it has been explicitly set.
copy([extra])	Creates a copy of this instance with the same uid and some extra params.
evaluate(dataset[, params])	Evaluates the output with optional parameters.
explainParam(param)	Explains a single param and returns its name, doc, and optional default value and user-supplied value in a string.
explainParams()	Returns the documentation of all params with their optionally default values and user-supplied values.
extractParamMap([extra])	Extracts the embedded default param values and user-supplied values, and then merges them with extra values from input into a flat param map, where the latter value is used if there exist conflicts, i.e., with ordering: default param values < user-supplied values < extra.
getK()	Gets the value of k or its default value.
getLabelCol()	Gets the value of labelCol or its default value.
getMetricName()	Gets the value of metricName or its default value.
getOrDefault(param)	Gets the value of a param in the user-supplied param map or its default value.
getParam(paramName)	Gets a param by its name.
getPredictionCol()	Gets the value of predictionCol or its default value.
hasDefault(param)	Checks whether a param has a default value.
hasParam(paramName)	Tests whether this instance contains a param with a given (string) name.
isDefined(param)	Checks whether a param is explicitly set by user or has a default value.
isLargerBetter()	Indicates whether the metric returned by evaluate() should be maximized (True, default) or minimized (False).
isSet(param)	Checks whether a param is explicitly set by user.
load(path)	Reads an ML instance from the input path, a shortcut of read().load(path).
read()	Returns an MLReader instance for this class.
save(path)	Save this ML instance to the given path, a shortcut of ‘write().save(path)’.
set(param, value)	Sets a parameter in the embedded param map.
setK(value)	Sets the value of k.
setLabelCol(value)	Sets the value of labelCol.
setMetricName(value)	Sets the value of metricName.
setParams(self, \*[, predictionCol, labelCol, k])	Sets params for ranking evaluator.
setPredictionCol(value)	Sets the value of predictionCol.
write()	Returns an MLWriter instance for this ML instance.

Methods Documentation

clear(param)

Clears a param from the param map if it has been explicitly set.

copy(extra=None)

Creates a copy of this instance with the same uid and some extra params. This implementation first calls Params.copy and then make a copy of the companion Java pipeline component with extra params. So both the Python wrapper and the Java pipeline component get copied.

Parameters

extradict, optional

Extra parameters to copy to the new instance

Returns

JavaParams

Copy of this instance

evaluate(dataset, params=None)

Evaluates the output with optional parameters.

New in version 1.4.0.

Parameters

datasetpyspark.sql.DataFrame

a dataset that contains labels/observations and predictions

paramsdict, optional

an optional param map that overrides embedded params

Returns

float

metric

explainParam(param)

Explains a single param and returns its name, doc, and optional default value and user-supplied value in a string.

explainParams()

Returns the documentation of all params with their optionally default values and user-supplied values.

extractParamMap(extra=None)

Extracts the embedded default param values and user-supplied values, and then merges them with extra values from input into a flat param map, where the latter value is used if there exist conflicts, i.e., with ordering: default param values < user-supplied values < extra.

Parameters

extradict, optional

extra param values

Returns

dict

merged param map

getK()

Gets the value of k or its default value.

New in version 3.0.0.

getLabelCol()

Gets the value of labelCol or its default value.

getMetricName()

Gets the value of metricName or its default value.

New in version 3.0.0.

getOrDefault(param)

Gets the value of a param in the user-supplied param map or its default value. Raises an error if neither is set.

getParam(paramName)

Gets a param by its name.

getPredictionCol()

Gets the value of predictionCol or its default value.

hasDefault(param)

Checks whether a param has a default value.

hasParam(paramName)

Tests whether this instance contains a param with a given (string) name.

isDefined(param)

Checks whether a param is explicitly set by user or has a default value.

isLargerBetter()

Indicates whether the metric returned by evaluate() should be maximized (True, default) or minimized (False). A given evaluator may support multiple metrics which may be maximized or minimized.

New in version 1.5.0.

isSet(param)

Checks whether a param is explicitly set by user.

classmethod load(path)

Reads an ML instance from the input path, a shortcut of read().load(path).

classmethod read()

Returns an MLReader instance for this class.

save(path)

Save this ML instance to the given path, a shortcut of ‘write().save(path)’.

set(param, value)

Sets a parameter in the embedded param map.

setK(value)

Sets the value of k.

New in version 3.0.0.

setLabelCol(value)

Sets the value of labelCol.

New in version 3.0.0.

setMetricName(value)

Sets the value of metricName.

New in version 3.0.0.

setParams(self, \*, predictionCol="prediction", labelCol="label", metricName="meanAveragePrecision", k=10)

Sets params for ranking evaluator.

New in version 3.0.0.

setPredictionCol(value)

Sets the value of predictionCol.

New in version 3.0.0.

write()

Returns an MLWriter instance for this ML instance.

Attributes Documentation

k = Param(parent='undefined', name='k', doc='The ranking position value used in meanAveragePrecisionAtK|precisionAtK|ndcgAtK|recallAtK. Must be > 0. The default value is 10.')

labelCol = Param(parent='undefined', name='labelCol', doc='label column name.')

metricName = Param(parent='undefined', name='metricName', doc='metric name in evaluation (meanAveragePrecision|meanAveragePrecisionAtK|precisionAtK|ndcgAtK|recallAtK)')

params

Returns all params ordered by name. The default implementation uses dir() to get all attributes of type Param.

predictionCol = Param(parent='undefined', name='predictionCol', doc='prediction column name.')
