PLSRegression#

class sklearn.cross_decomposition.PLSRegression(n_components=2, *, scale=True, max_iter=500, tol=1e-06, copy=True)[source]#

PLS regression.

PLSRegression is also known as PLS2 or PLS1, depending on the number of targets.

For a comparison between other cross decomposition algorithms, see Compare cross decomposition methods.

Read more in the User Guide.

Added in version 0.8.

Parameters:
n_componentsint, default=2

Number of components to keep. Should be in [1, n_features].

scalebool, default=True

Whether to scale X and Y.

max_iterint, default=500

tolfloat, default=1e-06

The tolerance used as convergence criteria in the power method: the algorithm stops whenever the squared norm of u_i - u_{i-1} is less than tol, where u corresponds to the left singular vector.

copybool, default=True

Whether to copy X and Y in fit before applying centering, and potentially scaling. If False, these operations will be done inplace, modifying both arrays.

get_feature_names_out(input_features=None)[source]#

Get output feature names for transformation.

The feature names out will prefixed by the lowercased class name. For example, if the transformer outputs 3 features, then the feature names out are: ["class_name0", "class_name1", "class_name2"].

Parameter names mapped to their values.

inverse_transform(X, y=None, Y=None)[source]#

Transform data back to its original space.

Parameters:
Xarray-like of shape (n_samples, n_components)

New data, where n_samples is the number of samples and n_components is the number of pls components.

yarray-like of shape (n_samples,) or (n_samples, n_components)

This transformation will only be exact if n_components=n_features.

predict(X, copy=True)[source]#

Predict targets of given samples.

Parameters:
Xarray-like of shape (n_samples, n_features)

Samples.

copybool, default=True

Whether to copy X and Y, or perform in-place normalization.

Returns:
y_predndarray of shape (n_samples,) or (n_samples, n_targets)

Returns predicted values.

Notes

This call requires the estimation of a matrix of shape (n_features, n_targets), which may be an issue in high dimensional space.

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

Return the coefficient of determination of the prediction.

The coefficient of determination \(R^2\) is defined as \((1 - \frac{u}{v})\), 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.

Parameters:
Xarray-like of shape (n_samples, n_features)

Test samples. For some estimators this may be a precomputed kernel matrix or a list of generic objects instead with shape (n_samples, n_samples_fitted), where n_samples_fitted is the number of samples used in the fitting for the estimator.

yarray-like of shape (n_samples,) or (n_samples, n_outputs)

True values for X.

sample_weightarray-like of shape (n_samples,), default=None

Sample weights.

Returns:
scorefloat

\(R^2\) of self.predict(X) w.r.t. y.

Notes

The \(R^2\) score used when calling score on a regressor uses multioutput='uniform_average' from version 0.23 to keep consistent with default value of r2_score. This influences the score method of all the multioutput regressors (except for MultiOutputRegressor).

set_output(*, transform=None)[source]#

Set output container.

See Introducing the set_output API for an example on how to use the API.

Parameters:
transform{“default”, “pandas”, “polars”}, default=None

Configure output of transform and fit_transform.

  • "default": Default output format of a transformer

  • "pandas": DataFrame output

  • "polars": Polars output

  • None: Transform configuration is unchanged

Added in version 1.4: "polars" option was added.

Returns:
selfestimator instance

Estimator instance.

set_params(**params)[source]#

Set the parameters of this estimator.

The method works on simple estimators as well as on nested objects (such as Pipeline). The latter have parameters of the form <component>__<parameter> so that it’s possible to update each component of a nested object.

Parameters:
**paramsdict

Estimator parameters.

Returns:
selfestimator instance

Estimator instance.

set_predict_request(*, copy: bool | None | str = '$UNCHANGED$') 192; PLSRegression[source]#

Request metadata passed to the predict method.

Note that this method is only relevant if enable_metadata_routing=True (see sklearn.set_config). Please see User Guide on how the routing mechanism works.

The options for each parameter are:

  • True: metadata is requested, and passed to predict if provided. The request is ignored if metadata is not provided.

  • False: metadata is not requested and the meta-estimator will not pass it to predict.

  • None: metadata is not requested, and the meta-estimator will raise an error if the user provides it.

  • str: metadata should be passed to the meta-estimator with this given alias instead of the original name.

The default (sklearn.utils.metadata_routing.UNCHANGED) retains the existing request. This allows you to change the request for some parameters and not others.

Added in version 1.3.

Note

This method is only relevant if this estimator is used as a sub-estimator of a meta-estimator, e.g. used inside a Pipeline. Otherwise it has no effect.

Parameters:

Returns:
selfobject

The updated object.

  • False: metadata is not requested and the meta-estimator will not pass it to score.

  • None: metadata is not requested, and the meta-estimator will raise an error if the user provides it.
