Reusing model parameters
Replicating model performance is vital in model validation. Replication is also important when sharing models with co-workers, reusing models on new data or asking questions on a website such as Stack Overflow. You might use such a site to ask other coders about model errors, output, or performance. The best way to do this is to replicate your work by reusing model parameters.
In this exercise, you use various methods to recall which parameters were used in a model.
This exercise is part of the course
Model Validation in Python
Exercise instructions
- Print out the characteristics of the model
rfc
by simply printing the model. - Print just the random state of the model.
- Print the dictionary of model parameters.
Hands-on interactive exercise
Have a go at this exercise by completing this sample code.
rfc = RandomForestClassifier(n_estimators=50, max_depth=6, random_state=1111)
# Print the classification model
____(____)
# Print the classification model's random state parameter
print('The random state is: {}'.format(rfc.____))
# Print all parameters
print('Printing the parameters dictionary: {}'.format(rfc.____()))
