Getting started

Installation and Setup

Installation

The latest built version of MRCpy can be installed using pip as ` pip install MRCpy `

Alternatively, the latest code (under development) of MRCpy can be installed by downloading the source GitHub repository as ` git clone https://github.com/MachineLearningBCAM/MRCpy.git cd MRCpy python3 setup.py install ` You may then use pytest tests to run all the checks (you will need to have the pytest package installed).

Quick start

This example loads the mammographic dataset, and trains the MRC classifier using 0-1 loss (i.e., the default loss).

from MRCpy import MRC
from MRCpy.datasets import load_mammographic
from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split

# Load the mammographic dataset
X, Y = load_mammographic(with_info=False)

# Split the data into training and testing
X_train, X_test, y_train, y_test = train_test_split(X, Y, test_size=0.2, random_state=42)

# Create the MRC classifier using default loss (0-1)
clf = MRC()

# Fit the classifier on the training data
clf.fit(X_train, y_train)

# Bounds on the classification error (only for MRC)
lower_error = clf.get_lower_bound()
upper_error = clf.get_upper_bound()

# Compute the accuracy on the test set
accuracy = clf.score(X_test, y_test)

Dataset Loaders

MRCpy library incorporates a variety of datasets, along with descriptions and convenient loader functions for each dataset. Next, we show the description of the functions you can find and import from MRCpy.datasets. Note that the datasets adult, magic, mnist, cats vs dogs and yearbook are not available in the built version (installed through pip) of MRCpy.

normalizeLabels(origY)

Normalize the labels of the instances in the range 0,…, r-1 for r classes.

load_adult(with_info=False)

Load and return the adult incomes prediction dataset (classification).
