From jk2k.net at gmail.com Sat Oct 2 11:25:25 2021 From: jk2k.net at gmail.com (J K) Date: Sat, 2 Oct 2021 11:25:25 -0400 Subject: [scikit-learn] ROC convex hulls design question Message-ID: <3CC1A986-E296-430E-86B9-EF9B36E0A3DC@gmail.com> Dear sklearn mailing list, I love all the wonderful ways scikit-learn has made good practices in ML more accessible to so many! Thanks for all of that! I?m wondering if there is there a design reason the default behavior for ROC generation (https://scikit-learn.org/stable/modules/generated/sklearn.metrics.roc_curve.html) doesn?t return the convex hull of the ROC? In the default ROC computation, the resulting ROCs aren?t on their convex hulls (https://docs.scipy.org/doc/scipy/reference/generated/scipy.spatial.ConvexHull.html) even though points on the convex hulls are achievable performance. So the default ROCs returned are suboptimal. That?s a point made in Tom Fawcett?s ROC 101 paper (https://www.math.ucdavis.edu/~saito/data/roc/fawcett-roc.pdf) that was cited in the sklearn docs. He writes: ?More generally, a classifier is potentially optimal if and only if it lies on the convex hull of the set of points in ROC space. The convex hull of the set of points in ROC space is called the ROC convex hull (ROCCH) of the corresponding set of classifiers.? Apologies if this is already answered somewhere else? I searched and could only find this apparently abandoned repo: https://github.com/tfawcett/pycost I?ve implemented an ROC convex hull myself and have found significant performance estimate improvements just from using the convex hull and am wondering if there was some reason this wasn?t implemented as the default.

The TC has had plenty of time to vote, my own vote is in favor of the consensus in very active developers. My count of the expressed vote is the following: - Keep current 88 characters: Olivier Grisel Joel Nothman Ga?l Varoquaux - Revert to 79 characters: Alex Gramfort Adrin Jalali - Answer with no preference expressed: Roman Yurchak So the decision is to use 88 chars, which means no action is needed.

The new big feature, which I think is of interest to many, is the "SuperVectorizer", that strives to readily vectorize a pandas dataframe: https://dirty-cat.github.io/stable/auto_examples/01_dirty_categories.html#example-super-vectorizer Of course, such an object is full of heuristics. We have tuned them empirically, but we expect more progress in the long term, as we build a bigger databases of dataframes that are difficult to vectorize. We'd love people to join the adventure, it's been fun so far.

I have been building a tool that integrates statistical engines - specially scikit-learn - with django called django-ai . With that tool, I have built another, covid-ht , which should showcase the power of those together. That tool is meant to help health professionals with classification tasks based on measurements . The tool is heading to its first release as a technology preview, and in this process I have faced a release-blocker issue for which I would like to ask for your help: I can't find a consistent interpretation of the graphs. The graphs are called "conditional decision functions ", where each one is the contour of the decision function of a classifier for an observation in 2 variables while leaving the others fixed. The graphs show classification regions as expected, but my initial interpretation seems wrong (commented out ). If that explanation was good, I would expect that perturbing one variable in a direction where the graph shows another class should switch the classification, as the remaining variables are fixed and that should be the value that the classifier uses to decide - which is plotted in that plane. That is not happening, as you may check here (the classifier being used is an Histogram-based Gradient Boosting Classification Tree). Any insight about the situation will be highly appreciated and thankful in advance. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:
