[docs]class H2OAutoML(object): """ Automatic Machine Learning The Automatic Machine Learning (AutoML) function automates the supervised machine learning model training process. The current version of AutoML trains and cross-validates a Random Forest, an Extremely-Randomized Forest, a random grid of Gradient Boosting Machines (GBMs), a random grid of Deep Neural Nets, and a Stacked Ensemble of all the models. :param int nfolds: Number of folds for k-fold cross-validation. Defaults to 5. Use 0 to disable cross-validation; this will also disable Stacked Ensemble (thus decreasing the overall model performance). :param int max_runtime_secs: This argument controls how long the AutoML run will execute. Defaults to 3600 seconds (1 hour). :param int max_models: Specify the maximum number of models to build in an AutoML run. (Does not include the Stacked Ensemble model.) :param str stopping_metric: Specifies the metric to use for early stopping. Defaults to ``"AUTO"``. The available options are: ``AUTO`` (This defaults to ``logloss`` for classification, ``deviance`` for regression), ``deviance``, ``logloss``, ``mse``, ``rmse``, ``mae``, ``rmsle``, ``auc``, ``lift_top_group``, ``misclassification``, ``mean_per_class_error``. :param float stopping_tolerance: This option specifies the relative tolerance for the metric-based stopping to stop the AutoML run if the improvement is less than this value. This value defaults to 0.001 if the dataset is at least 1 million rows; otherwise it defaults to a value determined by the size of the dataset and the non-NA-rate. In that case, the value is computed as 1/sqrt(nrows * non-NA-rate). :param int stopping_rounds: This argument stops training new models in the AutoML run when the option selected for stopping_metric doesn't improve for the specified number of models, based on a simple moving average. To disable this feature, set it to 0. Defaults to 3 and must be an non-negative integer. :param int seed: Set a seed for reproducibility. AutoML can only guarantee reproducibility if ``max_models`` or early stopping is used because ``max_runtime_secs`` is resource limited, meaning that if the resources are not the same between runs, AutoML may be able to train more models on one run vs another. Defaults to ``None``. :param str project_name: Character string to identify an AutoML project. Defaults to ``None``, which means a project name will be auto-generated based on the training frame ID. More models can be trained on an existing AutoML project by specifying the same project name in muliple calls to the AutoML function (as long as the same training frame is used in subsequent runs). :param exclude_algos: List of character strings naming the algorithms to skip during the model-building phase. An example use is exclude_algos = ["GLM", "DeepLearning", "DRF"], and the full list of options is: "GLM", "GBM", "DRF" (Random Forest and Extremely-Randomized Trees), "DeepLearning" and "StackedEnsemble". Defaults to None, which means that all appropriate H2O algorithms will be used, if the search stopping criteria allow.
