H2OGridSearch

class h2o.grid.grid_search.H2OGridSearch(model, hyper_params, grid_id=None, search_criteria=None)[source]

Bases: h2o.utils.backward_compatibility.BackwardsCompatibleBase

Grid Search of a Hyper-Parameter Space for a Model

Parameters:
  • model – The type of model to be explored initialized with optional parameters that will be unchanged across explored models.
  • hyper_params – A dictionary of string parameters (keys) and a list of values to be explored by grid search (values).
  • grid_id (str) – The unique id assigned to the resulting grid object. If none is given, an id will automatically be generated.
  • search_criteria

    A dictionary of directives which control the search of the hyperparameter space. The default strategy “Cartesian” covers the entire space of hyperparameter combinations. Specify the “RandomDiscrete” strategy to get random search of all the combinations of your hyperparameters. RandomDiscrete should usually be combined with at least one early stopping criterion: max_models and/or max_runtime_secs, e.g:

    >>> criteria = {"strategy": "RandomDiscrete", "max_models": 42,
    ...             "max_runtime_secs": 28800, "seed": 1234}
    >>> criteria = {"strategy": "RandomDiscrete", "stopping_metric": "AUTO",
    ...             "stopping_tolerance": 0.001, "stopping_rounds": 10}
    >>> criteria = {"strategy": "RandomDiscrete", "stopping_rounds": 5,
    ...             "stopping_metric": "misclassification",
    ...             "stopping_tolerance": 0.00001}
    
Returns:

a new H2OGridSearch instance
