verticapy.machine_learning.vertica.ensemble.RandomForestClassifier

class verticapy.machine_learning.vertica.ensemble.RandomForestClassifier(name: str = None, overwrite_model: bool = False, n_estimators: int = 10, max_features: Literal['auto', 'max'] | int = 'auto', max_leaf_nodes: Annotated[int | float | Decimal, 'Python Numbers'] = 1000000000.0, sample: float = 0.632, max_depth: int = 5, min_samples_leaf: int = 1, min_info_gain: Annotated[int | float | Decimal, 'Python Numbers'] = 0.0, nbins: int = 32)

Creates a RandomForestClassifier object using the Vertica RF_CLASSIFIER function. It is an ensemble learning method for classification that operates by constructing a multitude of decision trees during training and predicting the class by using a majority voting strategy among the individual trees.

The classifier aggregates the predictions of multiple decision trees to determine the final output class, thus improving the overall prediction accuracy and robustness compared to a single decision tree.

Parameters

name: str, optional

Name of the model. The model is stored in the DB.

overwrite_model: bool, optional

If set to True, training a model with the same name as an existing model overwrites the existing model.

n_estimators: int, optional

The number of trees in the forest, an integer between 1 and 1000, inclusive.

max_features: int | str, optional

The number of randomly chosen features from which to pick the best feature to split a given tree node. It can be an integer or one of the two following methods.

  • auto:

    square root of the total number of predictors.

  • max :

    number of predictors.

max_leaf_nodes: PythonNumber, optional

The maximum number of leaf nodes for a tree in the forest, an integerv between ``1 and 1e9, inclusive.

sample: float, optional

The portion of the input data set that is randomly selected for training each tree, a float between 0.0 and 1.0, inclusive.

max_depth: int, optional

aximum depth of each tree, an integer between 1 and 100, inclusive.

min_samples_leaf: int, optional

The minimum number of samples each branch must have after splitting a node, an integer between 1 and 1e6, inclusive. A split that results in remaining samples less than this value is discarded.

min_info_gain: PythonNumber, optional

The minimum threshold for including a split, a float between 0.0 and 1.0, inclusive. A split with information gain less than this threshold is discarded.

nbins: int, optional

Number of bins used to find splits in each column, where more splits leads to a longer runtime but more fine-grained, possibly better splits. Must be an integer between 2 and 1000, inclusive.

Attributes

Many attributes are created during the fitting phase.

trees_: list of BinaryTreeClassifier

Tree models are instances of ` BinaryTreeClassifier, each possessing various attributes. For more detailed information, refer to the documentation for BinaryTreeClassifier.

features_importance_: numpy.array

The importance of features. It is calculated using the MDI (Mean Decreased Impurity). To determine the final score, VerticaPy sums the scores of each tree, normalizes them and applies an activation function to scale them. It is necessary to use the features_importance() method to compute it initially, and the computed values will be subsequently utilized for subsequent calls.

features_importance_trees_: dict of numpy.array

Each element of the array represents the feature importance of tree i. The importance of features is calculated using the MDI (Mean Decreased Impurity). It is necessary to use the features_importance() method to compute it initially, and the computed values will be subsequently utilized for subsequent calls.

n_estimators_: int

The number of model estimators.

classes_: numpy.array

The classes labels.

Note

All attributes can be accessed using the get_attributes() method.

Note

Several other attributes can be accessed by using the get_vertica_attributes() method.

Examples

The following examples provide a basic understanding of usage. For more detailed examples, please refer to the Machine Learning or the Examples section on the website.

Important

Many tree-based models inherit from the RandomForest base class, and it’s recommended to use it directly for access to a wider range of options.

Load data for machine learning

We import verticapy:

import verticapy as vp

Hint

By assigning an alias to verticapy, we mitigate the risk of code collisions with other libraries. This precaution is necessary because verticapy uses commonly known function names like “average” and “median”, which can potentially lead to naming conflicts. The use of an alias ensures that the functions from verticapy are used as intended without interfering with functions from other libraries.

For this example, we will use the winequality dataset.

import verticapy.datasets as vpd

data = vpd.load_winequality()

Note

VerticaPy offers a wide range of sample datasets that are ideal for training and testing purposes. You can explore the full list of available datasets in the Datasets, which provides detailed information on each dataset and how to use them effectively. These datasets are invaluable resources for honing your data analysis and machine learning skills within the VerticaPy environment.

You can easily divide your dataset into training and testing subsets using the vDataFrame.train_test_split() method. This is a crucial step when preparing your data for machine learning, as it allows you to evaluate the performance of your models accurately.

data = vpd.load_winequality()
train, test = data.train_test_split(test_size = 0.2)

Warning

In this case, VerticaPy utilizes seeded randomization to guarantee the reproducibility of your data split. However, please be aware that this approach may lead to reduced performance. For a more efficient data split, you can use the vDataFrame.to_db() method to save your results into tables or temporary tables. This will help enhance the overall performance of the process.

Balancing the Dataset

In VerticaPy, balancing a dataset to address class imbalances is made straightforward through the balance() function within the preprocessing module. This function enables users to rectify skewed class distributions efficiently. By specifying the target variable and setting parameters like the method for balancing, users can effortlessly achieve a more equitable representation of classes in their dataset. Whether opting for over-sampling, under-sampling, or a combination of both, VerticaPy’s balance() function streamlines the process, empowering users to enhance the performance and fairness of their machine learning models trained on imbalanced data.

To balance the dataset, use the following syntax.

from verticapy.machine_learning.vertica.preprocessing import balance

balanced_train = balance(
    name = "my_schema.train_balanced",
    input_relation = train,
    y = "good",
    method = "hybrid",
)

Note

With this code, a table named train_balanced is created in the my_schema schema. It can then be used to train the model. In the rest of the example, we will work with the full dataset.

Hint

Balancing the dataset is a crucial step in improving the accuracy of machine learning models, particularly when faced with imbalanced class distributions. By addressing disparities in the number of instances across different classes, the model becomes more adept at learning patterns from all classes rather than being biased towards the majority class. This, in turn, enhances the model’s ability to make accurate predictions for under-represented classes. The balanced dataset ensures that the model is not dominated by the majority class and, as a result, leads to more robust and unbiased model performance. Therefore, by employing techniques such as over-sampling, under-sampling, or a combination of both during dataset preparation, practitioners can significantly contribute to achieving higher accuracy and better generalization of their machine learning models.

Model Initialization

First we import the RandomForestClassifier model:

from verticapy.machine_learning.vertica import RandomForestClassifier

Then we can create the model:

model = RandomForestClassifier(
    max_features = "auto",
    max_leaf_nodes = 32,
    sample = 0.5,
    max_depth = 3,
    min_samples_leaf = 5,
    min_info_gain = 0.0,
    nbins = 32,
)

Hint

In verticapy 1.0.x and higher, you do not need to specify the model name, as the name is automatically assigned. If you need to re-use the model, you can fetch the model name from the model’s attributes.

Important

The model name is crucial for the model management system and versioning. It’s highly recommended to provide a name if you plan to reuse the model later.

Model Training

We can now fit the model:

model.fit(
    train,
    [
        "fixed_acidity",
        "volatile_acidity",
        "citric_acid",
        "residual_sugar",
        "chlorides",
        "density",
    ],
    "good",
    test,
)

Important

To train a model, you can directly use the vDataFrame or the name of the relation stored in the database. The test set is optional and is only used to compute the test metrics. In verticapy, we don’t work using X matrices and y vectors. Instead, we work directly with lists of predictors and the response name.

Features Importance

We can conveniently get the features importance:

result = model.features_importance()

Note

In models such as RandomForest, feature importance is calculated using the MDI (Mean Decreased Impurity). To determine the final score, VerticaPy sums the scores of each tree, normalizes them and applies an activation function to scale them.

Metrics

We can get the entire report using:

model.report()
value
auc0.7539107774308096
prc_auc0.45657884241205604

Important

Most metrics are computed using a single SQL query, but some of them might require multiple SQL queries. Selecting only the necessary metrics in the report can help optimize performance. E.g. model.report(metrics = ["auc", "accuracy"]).

For classification models, we can easily modify the cutoff to observe the effect on different metrics:

model.report(cutoff = 0.2)
value
auc0.7539107774308096
prc_auc0.45657884241205604
accuracy0.7205542725173211

markedness0.2508573483046628
csi0.29377431906614787
Rows: 1-11 | Columns: 2

You can also use the score() function to compute any classification metric. The default metric is the accuracy:

model.score()
Out[3]: 0.8098537336412626

Prediction

Prediction is straight-forward:

model.predict(
    test,
    [
        "fixed_acidity",
        "volatile_acidity",
        "citric_acid",
        "residual_sugar",

Note

Predictions can be made automatically using the test set, in which case you don’t need to specify the predictors. Alternatively, you can pass only the vDataFrame to the predict() function, but in this case, it’s essential that the column names of the vDataFrame match the predictors and response name in the model.

Probabilities

It is also easy to get the model’s probabilities:

model.predict_proba(
    test,
    [

        "volatile_acidity",
        "citric_acid",

Note

Probabilities are added to the vDataFrame, and VerticaPy uses the corresponding probability function in SQL behind the scenes. You can use the pos_label parameter to add only the probability of the selected category.

Confusion Matrix

You can obtain the confusion matrix of your choice by specifying the desired cutoff.

model.confusion_matrix(cutoff = 0.5)
Out[4]: 
array([[1035,    3],
       [ 248,   13]])

Note

In classification, the cutoff is a threshold value used to determine class assignment based on predicted probabilities or scores from a classification model. In binary classification, if the predicted probability for a specific class is greater than or equal to the cutoff, the instance is assigned to the positive class; otherwise, it is assigned to the negative class. Adjusting the cutoff allows for trade-offs between true positives and false positives, enabling the model to be optimized for specific objectives or to consider the relative costs of different classification errors. The choice of cutoff is critical for tailoring the model’s performance to meet specific needs.

Main Plots (Classification Curves)

Classification models allow for the creation of various plots that are very helpful in understanding the model, such as the ROC Curve, PRC Curve, Cutoff Curve, Gain Curve, and more.

Most of the classification curves can be found in the Machine Learning - Classification Curve.

For example, let’s draw the model’s ROC curve.

model.roc_curve()

Important

Most of the curves have a parameter called nbins, which is essential for estimating metrics. The larger the nbins, the more precise the estimation, but it can significantly impact performance. Exercise caution when increasing this parameter excessively.

Hint

In binary classification, various curves can be easily plotted. However, in multi-class classification, it’s important to select the pos_label, representing the class to be treated as positive when drawing the curve.

Other Plots

Tree models can be visualized by drawing their tree plots. For more examples, check out Machine Learning - Tree Plots.

model.plot_tree()
../_images/machine_learning_vertica_tree_rf_classifier_.png

Note

The above example may not render properly in the doc because of the huge size of the tree. But it should render nicely in jupyter environment.

In order to plot graph using graphviz separately, you can extract the graphviz DOT file code as follows:

model.to_graphviz()

This string can then be copied into a DOT file which can beparsed by graphviz.

Contour plot is another useful plot that can be produced for models with two predictors.

model.contour()

Important

Machine learning models with two predictors can usually benefit from their own contour plot. This visual representation aids in exploring predictions and gaining a deeper understanding of how these models perform in different scenarios. Please refer to Contour Plot for more examples.

Parameter Modification

In order to see the parameters:

model.get_params()
Out[6]: 
{'n_estimators': 10,
 'max_features': 'auto',
 'max_leaf_nodes': 32,
 'sample': 0.5,
 'max_depth': 3,
 'min_samples_leaf': 5,
 'min_info_gain': 0.0,
 'nbins': 32}

And to manually change some of the parameters:

model.set_params({'max_depth': 5})

Model Register

In order to register the model for tracking and versioning:

model.register("model_v1")

Please refer to Model Tracking and Versioning for more details on model tracking and versioning.

Model Exporting

To Memmodel

model.to_memmodel()

Note

MemModel objects serve as in-memory representations of machine learning models. They can be used for both in-database and in-memory prediction tasks. These objects can be pickled in the same way that you would pickle a scikit-learn model.

The following methods for exporting the model use MemModel, and it is recommended to use MemModel directly.

To SQL

You can get the SQL code by:

model.to_sql()
Out[8]: '(CASE WHEN ((CASE WHEN "chlorides" < 0.049437 THEN (CASE WHEN "density" < 0.991991 THEN (CASE WHEN "residual_sugar" < 2.6375 THEN 0.0 ELSE 1.0 END) ELSE (CASE WHEN "citric_acid" < 0.2075 THEN 0.0 ELSE 0.0 END) END) ELSE (CASE WHEN "citric_acid" < 0.259375 THEN (CASE WHEN "density" < 0.995232 THEN 0.0 ELSE 0.0 END) ELSE (CASE WHEN "fixed_acidity" < 9.09375 THEN 0.0 ELSE 0.0 END) END) END) + (CASE WHEN "density" < 0.991991 THEN (CASE WHEN "density" < 0.990371 THEN (CASE WHEN "residual_sugar" < 2.6375 THEN 0.0 ELSE 1.0 END) ELSE (CASE WHEN "chlorides" < 0.049437 THEN 0.0 ELSE 0.0 END) END) ELSE (CASE WHEN "volatile_acidity" < 0.220625 THEN (CASE WHEN "density" < 0.996852 THEN 0.0 ELSE 0.0 END) ELSE (CASE WHEN "density" < 0.995232 THEN 0.0 ELSE 0.0 END) END) END) + (CASE WHEN "citric_acid" < 0.259375 THEN (CASE WHEN "chlorides" < 0.030719 THEN 0.0 ELSE 0.0 END) ELSE (CASE WHEN "density" < 0.991991 THEN (CASE WHEN "volatile_acidity" < 0.314375 THEN 0.0 ELSE 1.0 END) ELSE (CASE WHEN "density" < 0.995232 THEN 0.0 ELSE 0.0 END) END) END) + (CASE WHEN "volatile_acidity" < 0.54875 THEN (CASE WHEN "residual_sugar" < 6.7125 THEN (CASE WHEN "density" < 0.991991 THEN 0.0 ELSE 0.0 END) ELSE (CASE WHEN "chlorides" < 0.030719 THEN 0.0 ELSE 0.0 END) END) ELSE (CASE WHEN "density" < 0.991991 THEN 0.0 ELSE (CASE WHEN "volatile_acidity" < 0.595625 THEN 0.0 ELSE 0.0 END) END) END) + (CASE WHEN "density" < 0.991991 THEN (CASE WHEN "chlorides" < 0.030719 THEN (CASE WHEN "citric_acid" < 0.363125 THEN 1.0 ELSE 0.0 END) ELSE (CASE WHEN "citric_acid" < 0.466875 THEN 0.0 ELSE 0.0 END) END) ELSE (CASE WHEN "volatile_acidity" < 0.220625 THEN (CASE WHEN "citric_acid" < 0.259375 THEN 0.0 ELSE 0.0 END) ELSE (CASE WHEN "citric_acid" < 0.31125 THEN 0.0 ELSE 0.0 END) END) END) + (CASE WHEN "density" < 0.991991 THEN (CASE WHEN "residual_sugar" < 2.6375 THEN (CASE WHEN "fixed_acidity" < 7.959375 THEN 0.0 ELSE 0.0 END) ELSE (CASE WHEN "fixed_acidity" < 7.203125 THEN 1.0 ELSE 0.0 END) END) ELSE (CASE WHEN "citric_acid" < 0.259375 THEN 0.0 ELSE (CASE WHEN "density" < 0.995232 THEN 0.0 ELSE 0.0 END) END) END) + (CASE WHEN "citric_acid" < 0.259375 THEN (CASE WHEN "density" < 0.991991 THEN (CASE WHEN "volatile_acidity" < 0.408125 THEN 0.0 ELSE 0.0 END) ELSE (CASE WHEN "density" < 0.995232 THEN 0.0 ELSE 0.0 END) END) ELSE (CASE WHEN "density" < 0.991991 THEN (CASE WHEN "fixed_acidity" < 7.58125 THEN 0.0 ELSE 0.0 END) ELSE (CASE WHEN "volatile_acidity" < 0.220625 THEN 0.0 ELSE 0.0 END) END) END) + (CASE WHEN "chlorides" < 0.049437 THEN (CASE WHEN "density" < 0.991991 THEN (CASE WHEN "volatile_acidity" < 0.126875 THEN 1.0 ELSE 0.0 END) ELSE (CASE WHEN "density" < 0.993611 THEN 0.0 ELSE 0.0 END) END) ELSE (CASE WHEN "fixed_acidity" < 10.228125 THEN (CASE WHEN "residual_sugar" < 10.7875 THEN 0.0 ELSE 0.0 END) ELSE (CASE WHEN "volatile_acidity" < 0.36125 THEN 1.0 ELSE 0.0 END) END) END) + (CASE WHEN "density" < 0.991991 THEN (CASE WHEN "fixed_acidity" < 7.58125 THEN (CASE WHEN "citric_acid" < 0.466875 THEN 0.0 ELSE 0.0 END) ELSE 0.0 END) ELSE (CASE WHEN "fixed_acidity" < 9.85 THEN (CASE WHEN "volatile_acidity" < 0.220625 THEN 0.0 ELSE 0.0 END) ELSE (CASE WHEN "volatile_acidity" < 0.455 THEN 0.0 ELSE 0.0 END) END) END) + (CASE WHEN "chlorides" < 0.030719 THEN (CASE WHEN "citric_acid" < 0.363125 THEN (CASE WHEN "fixed_acidity" < 8.3375 THEN 1.0 ELSE 0.0 END) ELSE (CASE WHEN "residual_sugar" < 2.6375 THEN 0.0 ELSE 0.0 END) END) ELSE (CASE WHEN "density" < 0.991991 THEN (CASE WHEN "density" < 0.990371 THEN 0.0 ELSE 0.0 END) ELSE (CASE WHEN "density" < 0.995232 THEN 0.0 ELSE 0.0 END) END) END)) / 10 > 0.5 THEN 1 ELSE 0 END)'

To Python

To obtain the prediction function in Python syntax, use the following code:

X = [[4.2, 0.17, 0.36, 1.8, 0.029, 0.9899]]

model.to_python()(X)
Out[10]: array([0])

Hint

The to_python() method is used to retrieve predictions, probabilities, or cluster distances. For specific details on how to use this method for different model types, refer to the relevant documentation for each model.
