verticapy.machine_learning.vertica.linear_model.LinearRegression

class verticapy.machine_learning.vertica.linear_model.LinearRegression(name: str = None, overwrite_model: bool = False, tol: float = 1e-06, max_iter: int = 100, solver: Literal['newton', 'bfgs'] = 'newton', fit_intercept: bool = True)

Creates a LinearRegression object using the Vertica Linear Regression algorithm.

Parameters

name: str, optional

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

overwrite_model: bool, optional

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

tol: float, optional

Determines whether the algorithm has reached the specified accuracy result.

max_iter: int, optional

Determines the maximum number of iterations the algorithm performs before achieving the specified accuracy result.

solver: str, optional

The optimizer method used to train the model.

• newton:

  Newton Method.

• bfgs:

  Broyden Fletcher Goldfarb Shanno.

fit_intercept: bool, optional

boolean, specifies whether the model includes an intercept. If set to False, no intercept is used in training the model. Note that setting fit_intercept to False does not work well with the BFGS optimizer.

Attributes

Many attributes are created during the fitting phase.

coef_: numpy.array

The regression coefficients. The order of coefficients is the same as the order of columns used during the fitting phase.

intercept_: float

The expected value of the dependent variable when all independent variables are zero, serving as the baseline or constant term in the model.

features_importance_: numpy.array

The importance of features is computed through the model coefficients, which are normalized based on their range. Subsequently, an activation function calculates the final score. It is necessary to use the features_importance() method to compute it initially, and the computed values will be subsequently utilized for subsequent calls.

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.

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.

Model Initialization

First we import the LinearRegression model:

from verticapy.machine_learning.vertica import LinearRegression

Then we can create the model:

model = LinearRegression(
    tol = 1e-6,
    max_iter = 100,
    solver = 'newton',
    fit_intercept = True,
)

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(

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

For LinearModel, feature importance is computed using the coefficients. These coefficients are then normalized using the feature distribution. An activation function is applied to get the final score.

Metrics

We can get the entire report using:

result = model.report()

	value
explained_variance	0.14271208275213
max_error	3.06977534576913

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 = ["mse", "r2"]).

For LinearModel, we can easily get the ANOVA table using:

result = model.report(metrics = "anova")

	Df	SS	MS	F	p_value
Regression	6	161.902030354851	26.983671725808502	39.34478525313244	4.0922380162164687e-44

Total	1296	1031.91981495759

Rows: 1-3 | Columns: 6

You can also use the LinearModel.score function to compute the R-squared value:

model.score()
Out[2]: 0.142651042860517

Prediction

Prediction is straight-forward:

model.predict(
    test,
    [
        "fixed_acidity",
        "volatile_acidity",
        "citric_acid",
        "residual_sugar",
        "chlorides",
        "density",
    ],
    "prediction",
)

Rows: 1-100 | Columns: 15

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.

Plots

If the model allows, you can also generate relevant plots. For example, regression plots can be found in the Machine Learning - Regression Plots.

model.plot()

Important

The plotting feature is typically suitable for models with fewer than three predictors.

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

model.contour()

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[3]: {'tol': 1e-06, 'max_iter': 100, 'solver': 'newton', 'fit_intercept': True}

And to manually change some of the parameters:

model.set_params({'tol': 0.001})

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[5]: '145.346968485508 + 0.148388240568693 * "fixed_acidity" + -0.798032444120508 * "volatile_acidity" + -0.169986091028477 * "citric_acid" + 0.0432867534100296 * "residual_sugar" + -0.305668151711871 * "chlorides" + -141.242976423819 * "density"'

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[7]: array([6.02596801])

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.

__init__(name: str = None, overwrite_model: bool = False, tol: float = 1e-06, max_iter: int = 100, solver: Literal['newton', 'bfgs'] = 'newton', fit_intercept: bool = True) → None
