class MRCpy.DWGCS(loss='0-1', deterministic=True, random_state=None, fit_intercept=False, D=4, sigma_=None, B=1000, solver='adam', alpha=0.01, stepsize='decay', mini_batch_size=None, max_iters=None, weights_beta=None, weights_alpha=None, phi='linear', **phi_kwargs)[source]

Double-Weighting General Covariate Shift

The class DWGCS implements the method Double-Weighting for General Covariate Shift (DWGCS) proposed in [1]. It is designed for supervised classification under covariate shift.

DW-GCS provides adaptatition to covariate shift when a set of training samples and a set of unlabeled samples from the testing distribution are available at learning, without any prior knowledge about the supports of the training and testing distribution.

It implements 0-1 and log loss, and it can be used with multiple feature mappings.

Parameters

lossstr {‘0-1’, ‘log’}, default = ‘0-1’

Type of loss function to use for the risk minimization. 0-1 loss quantifies the probability of classification error at a certain example for a certain rule. Log-loss quantifies the minus log-likelihood at a certain example for a certain rule.

deterministicbool, default = True

Whether the prediction of the labels should be done in a deterministic way (given a fixed random_state in the case of using random Fourier or random ReLU features).

random_stateint, RandomState instance, default = None

Random seed used when ‘fourier’ and ‘relu’ options for feature mappings are used to produce the random weights.

fit_interceptbool, default = False

Whether to calculate the intercept for MRCs If set to false, no intercept will be used in calculations (i.e. data is expected to be already centered).

Dint, default = 4

Hyperparameter that balances the trade-off between error in expectation estimates and confidence of the classification.

Bint, default = 1000

Parameter that bound the maximum value of the weights beta associated to the training samples.

solver{‘cvx’, ‘grad’, ‘adam’}, default = ’adam’

Method to use in solving the optimization problem. Default is ‘cvx’. To choose a solver, you might want to consider the following aspects:

’cvx’

Solves the optimization problem using the CVXPY library. Obtains an accurate solution while requiring more time than the other methods. Note that the library uses the GUROBI solver in CVXpy for which one might need to request for a license. A free license can be requested here

’grad’

Solves the optimization using stochastic gradient descent. The parameters max_iters, stepsize and mini_batch_size determine the number of iterations, the learning rate and the batch size for gradient computation respectively. Note that the implementation uses nesterov’s gradient descent in case of ReLU and threshold features, and the above parameters do no affect the optimization in this case.

’adam’

Solves the optimization using stochastic gradient descent with adam (adam optimizer). The parameters max_iters, alpha and mini_batch_size determine the number of iterations, the learning rate and the batch size for gradient computation respectively. Note that the implementation uses nesterov’s gradient descent in case of ReLU and threshold features, and the above parameters do no affect the optimization in this case.

alphafloat, default = 0.001

Learning rate for ’adam’ solver.

mini_batch_sizeint, default = 1 or 32

The size of the batch to be used for computing the gradient in case of stochastic gradient descent and adam optimizer. In case of stochastic gradient descent, the default is 1, and in case of adam optimizer, the default is 32.

max_itersint, default = 100000 or 5000 or 2000

The maximum number of iterations to use in case of ’grad’ or ’adam’ solver. The default value is 100000 for ’grad’ solver and 5000 for ’adam’ solver and 2000 for nesterov’s gradient descent.

weights_alphaarray, default = None

The weights alpha(x) associated to each testing instance. Note that if just weights_beta is given, method will assume they are obtained based on robust approach, and fix beta(x) = 1.

weights_betabeta, default = None

Weights beta(x) associated to each training sample. Note that if just weights_beta is given, method will assume they are obtained based on reweighted approach, and fix alpha(x) = 1.

phistr or BasePhi instance, default = ‘linear’

Type of feature mapping function to use for mapping the input data. The currenlty available feature mapping methods are ‘fourier’, ‘relu’, and ‘linear’. The users can also implement their own feature mapping object (should be a BasePhi instance) and pass it to this argument. Note that when using ‘fourier’ feature mapping, training and testing instances are expected to be normalized. To implement a feature mapping, please go through the Feature Mappings section.

‘linear’

It uses the identity feature map referred to as Linear feature map. See class BasePhi.

‘fourier’

It uses Random Fourier Feature map. See class RandomFourierPhi.

‘relu’

It uses Rectified Linear Unit (ReLU) features. See class RandomReLUPhi.

**phi_kwargsAdditional parameters for feature mappings.

Groups the multiple optional parameters for the corresponding feature mappings(phi).

For example in case of fourier features, the number of features is given by n_components parameter which can be passed as argument - DWGCS(loss='log', phi='fourier', n_components=300)

The list of arguments for each feature mappings class can be found in the corresponding documentation.
