ComponentwiseGradientBoostingSurvivalAnalysis
(loss='coxph', learning_rate=0.1, n_estimators=100, subsample=1.0, dropout_rate=0, random_state=None, verbose=0)[source]¶ Gradient boosting with component-wise least squares as base learner.
See [1] for further description.
Parameters: - loss ({'coxph', 'squared', 'ipcwls'}, optional, default: 'coxph') – loss function to be optimized. ‘coxph’ refers to partial likelihood loss of Cox’s proportional hazards model. The loss ‘squared’ minimizes a squared regression loss that ignores predictions beyond the time of censoring, and ‘ipcwls’ refers to inverse-probability of censoring weighted least squares error.
- learning_rate (float, optional, default: 0.1) – learning rate shrinks the contribution of each base learner by learning_rate. There is a trade-off between learning_rate and n_estimators.
- n_estimators (int, default: 100) – The number of boosting stages to perform. Gradient boosting is fairly robust to over-fitting so a large number usually results in better performance.
- subsample (float, optional, default: 1.0) – The fraction of samples to be used for fitting the individual base learners. If smaller than 1.0 this results in Stochastic Gradient Boosting. subsample interacts with the parameter n_estimators. Choosing subsample < 1.0 leads to a reduction of variance and an increase in bias.
- dropout_rate (float, optional, default: 0.0) – If larger than zero, the residuals at each iteration are only computed from a random subset of base learners. The value corresponds to the percentage of base learners that are dropped. In each iteration, at least one base learner is dropped. This is an alternative regularization to shrinkage, i.e., setting learning_rate < 1.0.
- random_state (int seed, RandomState instance, or None, default: None) – The seed of the pseudo random number generator to use when shuffling the data.
- verbose (int, default: 0) – Enable verbose output. If 1 then it prints progress and performance once in a while (the more trees the lower the frequency). If greater than 1 then it prints progress and performance for every tree.

coef_
¶ The aggregated coefficients. The first element coef_[0] corresponds to the intercept. If loss is coxph, the intercept will always be zero.
Type: array, shape = (n_features + 1,)
-
loss_
¶ The concrete
LossFunction
object.Type: LossFunction
-
estimators_
¶ The collection of fitted sub-estimators.
Type: list of base learners
-
train_score_
¶ The i-th score
train_score_[i]
is the deviance (= loss) of the model at iterationi
on the in-bag sample. Ifsubsample == 1
this is the deviance on the training data.Type: array, shape = (n_estimators,)
-
oob_improvement_
¶ The improvement in loss (= deviance) on the out-of-bag samples relative to the previous iteration.
oob_improvement_[0]
is the improvement in loss of the first stage over theinit
estimator.Type: array, shape = (n_estimators,)

fit
(X, y, sample_weight=None)[source]¶ Fit estimator.
Parameters: - X (array-like, shape = (n_samples, n_features)) – Data matrix
- y (structured array, shape = (n_samples,)) – A structured array containing the binary event indicator as first field, and time of event or time of censoring as second field.

predict

If loss=’coxph’, predictions can be interpreted as log hazard ratio corresponding to the linear predictor of a Cox proportional hazards model. If loss=’squared’ or loss=’ipcwls’, predictions are the time to event.
Parameters: X (array-like, shape = (n_samples, n_features)) – Data matrix. Returns: risk_score – Predicted risk scores. Return type: array, shape = (n_samples,)

- y (structured array, shape = (n_samples,)) – A structured array containing the binary event indicator as first field, and time of event or time of censoring as second field.
Returns: cindex – Estimated concordance index.
