Extra Tree Regressor#
Extremely Randomized Regression Trees differ from standard Regression Trees in that they choose candidate splits at random rather than searching the entire feature column for the best value to split on. Extra Trees are also faster to build and their predictions have higher variance than a regular decision tree regressor.
Interfaces: Estimator, Learner, Ranks Features, Persistable
Data Type Compatibility: Categorical, Continuous
Parameters#
# | Name | Default | Type | Description |
---|---|---|---|---|
1 | maxHeight | PHP_INT_MAX | int | The maximum height of the tree. |
2 | maxLeafSize | 3 | int | The max number of samples that a leaf node can contain. |
3 | minPurityIncrease | 1e-7 | float | The minimum increase in purity necessary to continue splitting a subtree. |
4 | maxFeatures | Auto | int | The max number of feature columns to consider when determining a best split. |
Example#
use Rubix\ML\Regressors\ExtraTreeRegressor;
$estimator = new ExtraTreeRegressor(30, 5, 0.05, null);
Additional Methods#
Return the number of levels in the tree.
public height() : ?int
Return a factor that quantifies the skewness of the distribution of nodes in the tree.
public balance() : ?int
