metric_learn.SDML_Supervised

class metric_learn.SDML_Supervised(balance_param=0.5, sparsity_param=0.01, prior='identity', n_constraints=None, verbose=False, preprocessor=None, random_state=None, num_constraints='deprecated')

Supervised version of Sparse Distance Metric Learning (SDML)

SDML_Supervised creates pairs of similar sample by taking same class samples, and pairs of dissimilar samples by taking different class samples. It then passes these pairs to SDML for training.

Parameters:

balance_paramfloat, optional (default=0.5)

Trade off between sparsity and M0 prior.

sparsity_paramfloat, optional (default=0.01)

Trade off between optimizer and sparseness (see graph_lasso).

priorstring or numpy array, optional (default=’identity’)

Prior to set for the metric. Possible options are ‘identity’, ‘covariance’, ‘random’, and a numpy array of shape (n_features, n_features). For SDML, the prior should be strictly positive definite (PD).

‘identity’

An identity matrix of shape (n_features, n_features).

‘covariance’

The inverse covariance matrix.

‘random’

The prior will be a random SPD matrix of shape (n_features, n_features), generated using sklearn.datasets.make_spd_matrix.

numpy array

A positive definite (PD) matrix of shape (n_features, n_features), that will be used as such to set the prior.

n_constraintsint, optional (default=None)

Number of constraints to generate. If None, defaults to 20 * num_classes**2.

verbosebool, optional (default=False)

If True, prints information while learning.

preprocessorarray-like, shape=(n_samples, n_features) or callable

The preprocessor to call to get tuples from indices. If array-like, tuples will be formed like this: X[indices].

random_stateint or numpy.RandomState or None, optional (default=None)

A pseudo random number generator object or a seed for it if int. If init='random', random_state is used to set the random prior. In any case, random_state is also used to randomly sample constraints from labels.

num_constraintsRenamed to n_constraints. Will be deprecated in 0.7.0

fit(X, y)

Create constraints from labels and learn the SDML model.

Xarray-like, shape (n, d)

data matrix, where each row corresponds to a single instance

yarray-like, shape (n,)

data labels, one for each instance

Returns:

selfobject

Returns the instance.

fit_transform(X, y=None, **fit_params)

Fit to data, then transform it.

Fits transformer to X and y with optional parameters fit_params and returns a transformed version of X.

Parameters:

Xarray-like of shape (n_samples, n_features)

Input samples.

yarray-like of shape (n_samples,) or (n_samples, n_outputs), default=None

Target values (None for unsupervised transformations).

Returns:

X_newndarray array of shape (n_samples, n_features_new)

Transformed array.

The copy of the learned Mahalanobis matrix.

get_metadata_routing()

get_metric()

Returns a function that takes as input two 1D arrays and outputs the value of the learned metric on these two points. Depending on the algorithm, it can return a distance or a similarity function between pairs.

This function will be independent from the metric learner that learned it (it will not be modified if the initial metric learner is modified), and it can be directly plugged into the metric argument of scikit-learn’s estimators.

Returns:

metric_funfunction

The function described above.

pair_distance

a method that returns the distance between several pairs of points. Unlike get_metric, this is a method of the metric learner and therefore can change if the metric learner changes. Besides, it can use the metric learner’s preprocessor, and works on concatenated arrays.

pair_score

a method that returns the similarity score between several pairs of points. Unlike get_metric, this is a method of the metric learner and therefore can change if the metric learner changes. Besides, it can use the metric learner’s preprocessor, and works on concatenated arrays.

get_params(deep=True)

Get parameters for this estimator.

Parameters:

deepbool, default=True

If True, will return the parameters for this estimator and contained subobjects that are estimators.

Returns:

paramsdict

Parameter names mapped to their values.

pair_distance(pairs)

Returns the learned Mahalanobis distance between pairs.

This distance is defined as: \(d_M(x, x') = \sqrt{(x-x')^T M (x-x')}\) where M is the learned Mahalanobis matrix, for every pair of points x and x'. This corresponds to the euclidean distance between embeddings of the points in a new space, obtained through a linear transformation. Indeed, we have also: \(d_M(x, x') = \sqrt{(x_e - x_e')^T (x_e- x_e')}\), with \(x_e = L x\) (See MahalanobisMixin).

Parameters:

pairsarray-like, shape=(n_pairs, 2, n_features) or (n_pairs, 2)

3D Array of pairs to score, with each row corresponding to two points, for 2D array of indices of pairs if the metric learner uses a preprocessor.

Returns:

scoresnumpy.ndarray of shape=(n_pairs,)

The learned Mahalanobis distance for every pair.

See also

get_metric

a method that returns a function to compute the metric between two points. The difference with pair_distance is that it works on two 1D arrays and cannot use a preprocessor. Besides, the returned function is independent of the metric learner and hence is not modified if the metric learner is.

Mahalanobis Distances

pair_score(pairs)

Returns the opposite of the learned Mahalanobis distance between pairs.

Parameters:

pairsarray-like, shape=(n_pairs, 2, n_features) or (n_pairs, 2)

3D Array of pairs to score, with each row corresponding to two points, for 2D array of indices of pairs if the metric learner uses a preprocessor.

Returns:

scoresnumpy.ndarray of shape=(n_pairs,)

The opposite of the learned Mahalanobis distance for every pair.

The section of the project documentation that describes Mahalanobis Distances.

score_pairs(pairs)

Returns the learned Mahalanobis distance between pairs.

This distance is defined as: \(d_M(x, x') = \\sqrt{(x-x')^T M (x-x')}\) where M is the learned Mahalanobis matrix, for every pair of points x and x'. This corresponds to the euclidean distance between embeddings of the points in a new space, obtained through a linear transformation. Indeed, we have also: \(d_M(x, x') = \\sqrt{(x_e - x_e')^T (x_e- x_e')}\), with \(x_e = L x\) (See MahalanobisMixin).

Deprecated since version 0.7.0: Please use pair_distance instead.

Warning

This method will be removed in 0.8.0. Please refer to pair_distance or pair_score. This change will occur in order to add learners that don’t necessarily learn a Mahalanobis distance.

Parameters:

pairsarray-like, shape=(n_pairs, 2, n_features) or (n_pairs, 2)

3D Array of pairs to score, with each row corresponding to two points, for 2D array of indices of pairs if the metric learner uses a preprocessor.
