Class IndependentMultiLabelTrainer

java.lang.Object
org.tribuo.multilabel.baseline.IndependentMultiLabelTrainer
All Implemented Interfaces:
com.oracle.labs.mlrg.olcut.config.Configurable, com.oracle.labs.mlrg.olcut.provenance.Provenancable<TrainerProvenance>, Trainer<MultiLabel>
public class IndependentMultiLabelTrainer extends Object implements Trainer<MultiLabel>
Trains n independent binary Models, each of which predicts a single Label.

Then wraps it up in an IndependentMultiLabelModel to provide a MultiLabel prediction.

It trains each model sequentially, and could be optimised to train in parallel.

This trainer implements the approach known as "Binary Relevance" in the multi-label classification literature.

      public IndependentMultiLabelTrainer(Trainer<Label> innerTrainer)
      Constructs an independent multi-label trainer wrapped around the supplied classification trainer.
      Parameters:
      innerTrainer - The trainer to use for each individual label.

    • train

      public Model<MultiLabel> train(Dataset<MultiLabel> examples, Map<String,com.oracle.labs.mlrg.olcut.provenance.Provenance> runProvenance)
      Description copied from interface: Trainer
      Trains a predictive model using the examples in the given data set.
      Specified by:
      train in interface Trainer<MultiLabel>
      Parameters:
      examples - the data set containing the examples.
      runProvenance - Training run specific provenance (e.g., fold number).
      Returns:
      a predictive model that can be used to generate predictions for new examples.

    • train

      public Model<MultiLabel> train(Dataset<MultiLabel> examples, Map<String,com.oracle.labs.mlrg.olcut.provenance.Provenance> runProvenance, int invocationCount)
      Description copied from interface: Trainer
      Trains a predictive model using the examples in the given data set.
      Specified by:
      train in interface Trainer<MultiLabel>
      Parameters:
      examples - the data set containing the examples.
      runProvenance - Training run specific provenance (e.g., fold number).
      invocationCount - The invocation counter that the trainer should be set to before training, which in most cases alters the state of the RNG inside this trainer. If the value is set to Trainer.INCREMENT_INVOCATION_COUNT then the invocation count is not changed.
      Returns:
      a predictive model that can be used to generate predictions for new examples.

    • getInvocationCount

      public int getInvocationCount()
      Description copied from interface: Trainer
      The number of times this trainer instance has had it's train method invoked.

      This is used to determine how many times the trainer's RNG has been accessed to ensure replicability in the random number stream.

      Specified by:
      getInvocationCount in interface Trainer<MultiLabel>
      Returns:
      The number of train invocations.

    • setInvocationCount

      public void setInvocationCount(int invocationCount)
      Description copied from interface: Trainer
      Set the internal state of the trainer to the provided number of invocations of the train method.

      This is used when reproducing a Tribuo-trained model by setting the state of the RNG to what it was at when Tribuo trained the original model by simulating invocations of the train method. This method should ALWAYS be overridden, and the default method is purely for compatibility.

      In a future major release this default implementation will be removed.

      Specified by:
      setInvocationCount in interface Trainer<MultiLabel>
      Parameters:
      invocationCount - the number of invocations of the train method to simulate

    • toString

      public String toString()
      Overrides:
      toString in class Object

    • getProvenance

      public TrainerProvenance getProvenance()
      Specified by:
      getProvenance in interface com.oracle.labs.mlrg.olcut.provenance.Provenancable<TrainerProvenance>
