xgboost是基于GBDT原理进行改进的算法,效率高,并且可以进行并行化运算;

而且可以在训练的过程中给出各个特征的评分,从而表明每个特征对模型训练的重要性,

调用的源码就不准备详述,本文主要侧重的是计算的原理,函数get_fscore源码如下,

源码来自安装包:xgboost/python-package/xgboost/core.py

通过下面的源码可以看出,特征评分可以看成是被用来分离决策树的次数,而这个与

《统计学习基础-数据挖掘、推理与推测》中10.13.1 计算公式有写差异,此处需要注意。

注:考虑的角度不同,计算方法略有差异。

 def get_fscore(self, fmap=‘‘):
        """Get feature importance of each feature.

        Parameters
        ----------
        fmap: str (optional)
           The name of feature map file

        return self.get_score(fmap, importance_type=‘weight‘)

    def get_score(self, fmap=‘‘, importance_type=‘weight‘):
        """Get feature importance of each feature.
        Importance type can be defined as:
            ‘weight‘ - the number of times a feature is used to split the data across all trees.
            ‘gain‘ - the average gain of the feature when it is used in trees
            ‘cover‘ - the average coverage of the feature when it is used in trees
