cross_val_score 默认评分不一致？

Question

根据 docs,

对于 cross_val_score 的 scoring 参数： 如果 None，则使用估算器的默认评分器（如果可用）。

对于 DecisionTreeRegressor，默认标准是 mse。那么为什么我在这里得到不同的结果？

from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split
from sklearn.metrics import mean_squared_error
from sklearn.metrics import r2_score
X_train, X_test, y_train, y_test = train_test_split(X, y, test_size=0.3)


dt = DecisionTreeRegressor(max_depth=4, min_samples_leaf=0.26)

- cross_val_score(dt, X_train, y_train, cv=10, scoring='neg_mean_squared_error')

>>> array([ 46.94808341,  18.78121305,  18.19914701,  18.06935431,
        17.19546733,  28.91247609,  39.41410887,  21.30453162,
        31.96443414,  23.74191199])


cross_val_score(dt, X_train, y_train, cv=10)

>>> array([ 0.35723619,  0.75254466,  0.7181376 ,  0.65718608,  0.72531937,
        0.4752839 ,  0.43169728,  0.63916363,  0.41406146,  0.68977882])

如果非要我猜的话，默认的 scoring 似乎是 R2 而不是 mse。我对默认记分器的理解是正确的还是这是一个错误？

Answer 1

DecisionTreeRegression 的默认记分器是 r2-score，您可以在 DecisionTreeRegressor 的 docs 中找到它。

 score(self, X, y, sample_weight=None)[source]

    Return the coefficient of determination R^2 of the prediction.

    The coefficient R^2 is defined as (1 - u/v), where u is the residual sum of squares ((y_true - y_pred) ** 2).sum() and v is the total sum of squares ((y_true - y_true.mean()) ** 2).sum(). The best possible score is 1.0 and it can be negative (because the model can be arbitrarily worse). A constant model that always predicts the expected value of y, disregarding the input features, would get a R^2 score of 0.0.

Answer 2

@PV8说的很对，但我想指出两个细节

细节 #1：如何使用 r2-score 作为评分标准？答案：make_scorer

from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split
from sklearn.datasets import load_diabetes
from sklearn.model_selection import cross_val_score
from sklearn.metrics import r2_score, make_scorer
from sklearn.tree import DecisionTreeRegressor

X, y = load_diabetes(return_X_y=True)
X_train, X_test, y_train, y_test = train_test_split(X, y, test_size=0.3)
dt = DecisionTreeRegressor(max_depth=4, min_samples_leaf=0.26)
print(cross_val_score(dt, X_train, y_train, cv=10, scoring=make_scorer(r2_score)))

如果你运行这个程序多次你仍然会得到不同的结果。

细节#2：如何获得一致的结果？

您需要设置 random_state 变量以获得恒定的结果。

例如：

from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split
from sklearn.datasets import load_diabetes
from sklearn.model_selection import cross_val_score
from sklearn.metrics import r2_score, make_scorer
from sklearn.tree import DecisionTreeRegressor

X, y = load_diabetes(return_X_y=True)
X_train, X_test, y_train, y_test = train_test_split(X, y, test_size=0.3, random_state=42)
dt = DecisionTreeRegressor(max_depth=4, min_samples_leaf=0.26)
print(cross_val_score(dt, X_train, y_train, cv=10, scoring=make_scorer(r2_score)))

结果总是一样的。
