``tweedie_variance_power`` -------------------------- - Available in: GLM - Hyperparameter: yes Description ~~~~~~~~~~~ When ``family=tweedie``, this option can be used to specify the power for the tweedie variance. This option defaults to 0. Tweedie distributions are a family of distributions that include gamma, normal, Poisson and their combinations. This distribution is especially useful for modeling positive continuous variables with exact zeros. The variance of the Tweedie distribution is proportional to the :math:`p`-th power of the mean :math:`var(y_i) = \phi\mu{^p_i}`. The Tweedie distribution is parametrized by variance power :math:`p`. It is defined for all :math:`p` values except in the (0,1) interval and has the following distributions as special cases: - :math:`p = 0`: Normal - :math:`p = 1`: Poisson - :math:`p \in (1,2)`: Compound Poisson, non-negative with mass at zero - :math:`p = 2`: Gamma - :math:`p = 3`: Gaussian - :math:`p > 2`: Stable, with support on the positive reals The following table shows the acceptable relationships between family functions, tweedie variance powers, and tweedie link powers. +------------------+------------------------+--------------------+ | Family Function | Tweedie Variance Power | Tweedie Link Power | +==================+========================+====================+ | Poisson | 1 | 0, 1-vpow, 1 | +------------------+------------------------+--------------------+ | Gamma | 2 | 0, 1-vpow, 2 | +------------------+------------------------+--------------------+ | Gaussian | 3 | 1, 1-vpow | +------------------+------------------------+--------------------+ Related Parameters ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - `family `__ - `link `__ - `tweedie_link_power `__ Example ~~~~~~~ .. example-code:: .. code-block:: r library(h2o) h2o.init() # import the auto dataset: # this dataset looks at features of motor insurance policies and predicts the aggregate claim loss # the original dataset can be found at https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/HDtweedie/HDtweedie.pdf auto <- h2o.importFile("https://s3.amazonaws.com/h2o-public-test-data/smalldata/glm_test/auto.csv") # set the predictor names and the response column name predictors <- colnames(auto)[-1] # The response is aggregate claim loss (in $1000s) response <- "y" # split into train and validation sets auto.splits <- h2o.splitFrame(data = auto, ratios = .8) train <- auto.splits[[1]] valid <- auto.splits[[2]] # try using the `tweedie_variance_power` parameter: # train your model, where you specify tweedie_variance_power auto_glm <- h2o.glm(x = predictors, y = response, training_frame = train, validation_frame = valid, family = 'tweedie', tweedie_variance_power = 1) # print the mse for validation set print(h2o.mse(auto_glm, valid=TRUE)) # grid over `tweedie_variance_power` # select the values for `tweedie_variance_power` to grid over hyper_params <- list( tweedie_variance_power = c(0, 1, 1.1, 1.2,1.3,1.4,1.5,1.6,1.7,1.8,1.9,2, 2.1, 2.2,2.3,2.4,2.5,2.6,2.7,2.8,2.9,3, 5, 7) ) # this example uses cartesian grid search because the search space is small # and we want to see the performance of all models.
