Methods Documentation

clear(param)¶: Clears a param from the param map if it has been explicitly set.

copy(extra=None)¶

Creates a copy of this instance with the same uid and some extra params. This implementation first calls Params.copy and then make a copy of the companion Java pipeline component with extra params. So both the Python wrapper and the Java pipeline component get copied.

Parameters

extradict, optional: Extra parameters to copy to the new instance

Returns

JavaParams: Copy of this instance

explainParam(param)¶: Explains a single param and returns its name, doc, and optional default value and user-supplied value in a string.

explainParams()¶: Returns the documentation of all params with their optionally default values and user-supplied values.

extractParamMap(extra=None)¶

Extracts the embedded default param values and user-supplied values, and then merges them with extra values from input into a flat param map, where the latter value is used if there exist conflicts, i.e., with ordering: default param values < user-supplied values < extra.

Parameters

extradict, optional: extra param values

Returns

dict: merged param map

fit(dataset, params=None)¶

Fits a model to the input dataset with optional parameters.

New in version 1.3.0.

Parameters

datasetpyspark.sql.DataFrame: input dataset.
paramsdict or list or tuple, optional: an optional param map that overrides embedded params. If a list/tuple of param maps is given, this calls fit on each param map and returns a list of models.

Returns

Transformer or a list of Transformer: fitted model(s)

fitMultiple(dataset, paramMaps)¶

Fits a model to the input dataset for each param map in paramMaps.

New in version 2.3.0.

Parameters

datasetpyspark.sql.DataFrame: input dataset.
paramMapscollections.abc.Sequence: A Sequence of param maps.

Returns

_FitMultipleIterator: A thread safe iterable which contains one model for each param map. Each call to next(modelIterator) will return (index, model) where model was fit using paramMaps[index]. index values may not be sequential.
