  • use_case (UseCase | string, optional) – A single UseCase object or ID to add this new Project to. Must be a kwarg.

Returns:

project – Instance with initialized data.

Return type:

get_models(order_by=None, search_params=None, with_metric=None, use_new_models_retrieval=False)

List all completed, successful models in the leaderboard for the given project.

Parameters:
  • order_by (str or list of strings, optional) –

    If not None, the returned models are ordered by this attribute. If None, the default return is the order of default project metric.

    Allowed attributes to sort by are:

    • metric

    • sample_pct

    If the sort attribute is preceded by a hyphen, models will be sorted in descending order, otherwise in ascending order.

    Multiple sort attributes can be included as a comma-delimited string or in a list e.g. order_by=`sample_pct,-metric` or order_by=[sample_pct, -metric]

    Using metric to sort by will result in models being sorted according to their validation score by how well they did according to the project metric.

  • search_params (dict, optional.) –

    If not None, the returned models are filtered by lookup. Currently you can query models by:

    • name

    • sample_pct

    • is_starred

  • with_metric (Optional[str].) – If not None, the returned models will only have scores for this metric. Otherwise all the metrics are returned.

  • use_new_models_retrieval (bool, False by default) – If true, new retrieval route is used, which supports filtering and returns fewer attributes per individual model. Following attributes are absent and could be retrieved from the blueprint level: monotonic_increasing_featurelist_id, monotonic_decreasing_featurelist_id, supports_composable_ml and supports_monotonic_constraints. Following attributes are absent and could be retrieved from the individual model level: has_empty_clusters, is_n_clusters_dynamically_determined, prediction_threshold and prediction_threshold_read_only. Attribute n_clusters in Model is renamed to number_of_clusters in GenericModel and is returned for unsupervised clustering models.

Returns:

models – All models trained in the project.

Return type:

a list of Model or a list of GenericModel if `use_new_models_retrieval is True.`

Raises:

create_type_transform_feature(name, parent_name, variable_type, replacement=None, date_extraction=None, max_wait=600)

Create a new feature by transforming the type of an existing feature in the project

Note that only the following transformations are supported:

  1. Text to categorical or numeric

  2. Categorical to text or numeric

  3. Numeric to categorical

  4. Date to categorical or numeric

(type-transform-considerations)= .. note:: Special considerations when casting numeric to categorical

There are two parameters which can be used for variableType to convert numeric data to categorical levels. These differ in the assumptions they make about the input data, and are very important when considering the data that will be used to make predictions. The assumptions that each makes are:

  • categorical : The data in the column is all integral, and there are no missing values. If either of these conditions do not hold in the training set, the transformation will be rejected. During predictions, if any of the values in the parent column are missing, the predictions will error.

  • categoricalInt : New in v2.6 All of the data in the column should be considered categorical in its string form when cast to an int by truncation. For example the value 3 will be cast as the string 3 and the value 3.14 will also be cast as the string 3. Further, the value -3.6 will become the string -3. Missing values will still be recognized as missing.

For convenience these are represented in the enum VARIABLE_TYPE_TRANSFORM with the names CATEGORICAL and CATEGORICAL_INT.

Parameters:
  • name (str) – The name to give to the new feature

  • parent_name (str) – The name of the feature to transform

  • variable_type (str) – The type the new column should have. See the values within datarobot.enums.VARIABLE_TYPE_TRANSFORM.

  • replacement (str or Optional[float]) – The value that missing or unconvertable data should have

  • date_extraction (Optional[str]) – Must be specified when parent_name is a date column (and left None otherwise). Specifies which value from a date should be extracted. See the list of values in datarobot.enums.DATE_EXTRACTION

  • max_wait (Optional[int]) – The maximum amount of time to wait for DataRobot to finish processing the new column. This process can take more time with more data to process. If this operation times out, an AsyncTimeoutError will occur. DataRobot continues the processing and the new column may successfully be constructed.

Returns:

The data of the new Feature

Return type:

Feature

Raises:
get_featurelist_by_name(name)

Creates a new featurelist

Parameters:

name (Optional[str]) – The name of the Project’s featurelist to get.

Returns:

featurelist found by name, optional

Return type:

Creates a new featurelist

Parameters:
  • name (Optional[str]) – The name to give to this new featurelist. Names must be unique, so an error will be returned from the server if this name has already been used in this project. We dynamically create a name if none is provided.

  • features (list of Optional[str]) – The names of the features. Each feature must exist in the project already.

  • starting_featurelist (Featurelist, optional) – The featurelist to use as the basis when creating a new featurelist. starting_featurelist.features will be read to get the list of features that we will manipulate.

  • starting_featurelist_id (Optional[str]) – The featurelist ID used instead of passing an object instance.

  • starting_featurelist_name (Optional[str]) – The featurelist name like “Informative Features” to find a featurelist via the API, and use to fetch features.

  • features_to_include (list of Optional[str]) – The list of the feature names to include in new featurelist. Throws an error if an item in this list is not in the featurelist that was passed, or that was retrieved from the API. If nothing is passed, all features are included from the starting featurelist.

  • features_to_exclude (list of Optional[str]) – The list of the feature names to exclude in the new featurelist. Throws an error if an item in this list is not in the featurelist that was passed, also throws an error if a feature is in this list as well as features_to_include. Method cannot use both at the same time.

Returns:

newly created featurelist

Return type:

Featurelist

Submit a job to the queue to train a model.

Either sample_pct or training_row_count can be used to specify the amount of data to use, but not both. If neither are specified, a default of the maximum amount of data that can safely be used to train any blueprint without going into the validation data will be selected.

In smart-sampled projects, sample_pct and training_row_count are assumed to be in terms of rows of the minority class.

Note

If the project uses datetime partitioning, use Project.train_datetime instead.

Parameters:
  • trainable (str or Blueprint) –

    For str, this is assumed to be a blueprint_id. If no source_project_id is provided, the project_id will be assumed to be the project that this instance represents.

    Otherwise, for a Blueprint, it contains the blueprint_id and source_project_id that we want to use. featurelist_id will assume the default for this project if not provided, and sample_pct will default to using the maximum training value allowed for this project’s partition setup. source_project_id will be ignored if a Blueprint instance is used for this parameter

  • sample_pct (Optional[float]) – The amount of data to use for training, as a percentage of the project dataset from 0 to 100.

  • featurelist_id (Optional[str]) – The identifier of the featurelist to use. If not defined, the default for this project is used.

  • scoring_type (Optional[str]) – Either validation or crossValidation (also dr.SCORING_TYPE.validation or dr.SCORING_TYPE.cross_validation). validation is available for every partitioning type, and indicates that the default model validation should be used for the project. If the project uses a form of cross-validation partitioning, crossValidation can also be used to indicate that all of the available training/validation combinations should be used to evaluate the model.

  • training_row_count (Optional[int]) – The number of rows to use to train the requested model.

  • monotonic_increasing_featurelist_id (Optional[str]) – (new in version 2.11) the id of the featurelist that defines the set of features with a monotonically increasing relationship to the target.

Returns:

model_job_id – id of created job, can be used as parameter to ModelJob.get method or wait_for_async_model_creation function

Return type:

str

Examples

Use a Blueprint instance:

blueprint = project.get_blueprints()[0]
model_job_id = project.train(blueprint, training_row_count=project.max_train_rows)

Use a blueprint_id, which is a string. In the first case, it is assumed that the blueprint was created by this project. If you are using a blueprint used by another project, you will need to pass the id of that other project as well.

blueprint_id = 'e1c7fc29ba2e612a72272324b8a842af'
project.train(blueprint, training_row_count=project.max_train_rows)

another_project.train(blueprint, source_project_id=project.id)

You can also easily use this interface to train a new model using the data from an existing model:

model = project.get_models()[0]
model_job_id = project.train(model.blueprint.id,
                             sample_pct=100)
train_datetime(blueprint_id, featurelist_id=None, training_row_count=None, training_duration=None, source_project_id=None, monotonic_increasing_featurelist_id=<object object>, monotonic_decreasing_featurelist_id=<object object>, use_project_settings=False, sampling_method=None, n_clusters=None)

Applicable to OTV projects only.

  • use_project_settings (Optional[bool]) – (New in version v2.20) defaults to False. If True, indicates that the custom backtest partitioning settings specified by the user will be used to train the model and evaluate backtest scores.
