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.

cacheNodeIds = Param(parent='undefined', name='cacheNodeIds', doc='If false, the algorithm will pass trees to executors to match instances with nodes. If true, the algorithm will cache node IDs for each instance. Caching can speed up training of deeper trees. Users can set how often should the cache be checkpointed or disable it by setting checkpointInterval.')

checkpointInterval = Param(parent='undefined', name='checkpointInterval', doc='set checkpoint interval (>= 1) or disable checkpoint (-1). E.g. 10 means that the cache will get checkpointed every 10 iterations. Note: this setting will be ignored if the checkpoint directory is not set in the SparkContext.')

featureImportances

Estimate of the importance of each feature.

Each feature’s importance is the average of its importance across all trees in the ensemble The importance vector is normalized to sum to 1. This method is suggested by Hastie et al. (Hastie, Tibshirani, Friedman. “The Elements of Statistical Learning, 2nd Edition.” 2001.) and follows the implementation from scikit-learn.
