class mne.decoding.SlidingEstimator(base_estimator, scoring=None, n_jobs=1, verbose=None)

Search Light.

Fit, predict and score a series of models to each subset of the dataset along the last dimension. Each entry in the last dimension is referred to as a task.

Parameters

base_estimatorobject

The base estimator to iteratively fit on a subset of the dataset.

scoringcallable(), str, default None

Score function (or loss function) with signature score_func(y, y_pred, **kwargs). Note that the predict_method is automatically identified if scoring is a string (e.g. scoring=”roc_auc” calls predict_proba) but is not automatically set if scoring is a callable (e.g. scoring=sklearn.metrics.roc_auc_score).

n_jobsint

The number of jobs to run in parallel (default 1). Requires the joblib package. The number of jobs to run in parallel for both fit and predict. If -1, then the number of jobs is set to the number of cores.

verbosebool, str, int, or None

If not None, override default verbose level (see mne.verbose() and Logging documentation for more). If used, it should be passed as a keyword-argument only.

Attributes

estimators_array_like, shape (n_tasks,)

List of fitted scikit-learn estimators (one per task).

Methods

__hash__(/)	Return hash(self).
decision_function(X)	Estimate distances of each data slice to the hyperplanes.
fit(X, y, **fit_params)	Fit a series of independent estimators to the dataset.
fit_transform(X, y, **fit_params)	Fit and transform a series of independent estimators to the dataset.
get_params([deep])	Get parameters for this estimator.
predict(X)	Predict each data slice/task with a series of independent estimators.
predict_proba(X)	Predict each data slice with a series of independent estimators.

set_params(**params)	Set the parameters of this estimator.
transform(X)	Transform each data slice/task with a series of independent estimators.

decision_function(X)

Estimate distances of each data slice to the hyperplanes.

Parameters

Xarray, shape (n_samples, nd_features, n_tasks)

The input samples. For each data slice, the corresponding estimator outputs the distance to the hyperplane, e.g.: [estimators[ii].decision_function(X[..., ii]) for ii in range(n_estimators)]. The feature dimension can be multidimensional e.g. X.shape = (n_samples, n_features_1, n_features_2, n_estimators).

Returns

y_predarray, shape (n_samples, n_estimators, n_classes * (n_classes-1) // 2)

Predicted distances for each estimator/data slice.

Notes

This requires base_estimator to have a decision_function method.

fit(X, y, **fit_params)

Fit a series of independent estimators to the dataset.

Parameters

Xarray, shape (n_samples, nd_features, n_tasks)

The training input samples. For each data slice, a clone estimator is fitted independently. The feature dimension can be multidimensional e.g. X.shape = (n_samples, n_features_1, n_features_2, n_tasks).

yarray, shape (n_samples,) | (n_samples, n_targets)

The target values.

**fit_paramsdict of str -> object

Parameters to pass to the fit method of the estimator.

Returns

selfobject

Return self.

fit_transform(X, y, **fit_params)

Fit and transform a series of independent estimators to the dataset.

Parameters

Xarray, shape (n_samples, nd_features, n_tasks)

The training input samples. For each task, a clone estimator is fitted independently. The feature dimension can be multidimensional e.g. X.shape = (n_samples, n_features_1, n_features_2, n_estimators)

yarray, shape (n_samples,) | (n_samples, n_targets)

The target values.

**fit_paramsdict of str -> object

Parameters to pass to the fit method of the estimator.

Returns

y_predarray, shape (n_samples, n_tasks) | (n_samples, n_tasks, n_targets)

The predicted values for each estimator.

get_params(deep=True)

Get parameters for this estimator.

Parameters

deepbool, optional

If True, will return the parameters for this estimator and contained subobjects that are estimators.

Returns

paramsmapping of str to any

Parameter names mapped to their values.

predict(X)

Predict each data slice/task with a series of independent estimators.

The number of tasks in X should match the number of tasks/estimators given at fit time.

Parameters

Xarray, shape (n_samples, nd_features, n_tasks)

The input samples. For each data slice, the corresponding estimator makes the sample predictions, e.g.: [estimators[ii].predict(X[..., ii]) for ii in range(n_estimators)]. The feature dimension can be multidimensional e.g. X.shape = (n_samples, n_features_1, n_features_2, n_tasks).

Returns

y_predarray, shape (n_samples, n_estimators) | (n_samples, n_tasks, n_targets)

Predicted values for each estimator/data slice.

predict_proba(X)

Predict each data slice with a series of independent estimators.

The number of tasks in X should match the number of tasks/estimators given at fit time.

Parameters

Xarray, shape (n_samples, nd_features, n_tasks)

The input samples. For each data slice, the corresponding estimator makes the sample probabilistic predictions, e.g.: [estimators[ii].predict_proba(X[..., ii]) for ii in range(n_estimators)]. The feature dimension can be multidimensional e.g. X.shape = (n_samples, n_features_1, n_features_2, n_tasks).

Returns

y_predarray, shape (n_samples, n_tasks, n_classes)

Predicted probabilities for each estimator/data slice/task.

score(X, y)

Score each estimator on each task.

The number of tasks in X should match the number of tasks/estimators given at fit time, i.e. we need X.shape[-1] == len(self.estimators_).

Parameters

Xarray, shape (n_samples, nd_features, n_tasks)

The input samples. For each data slice, the corresponding estimator scores the prediction, e.g.: [estimators[ii].score(X[..., ii], y) for ii in range(n_estimators)]. The feature dimension can be multidimensional e.g. X.shape = (n_samples, n_features_1, n_features_2, n_tasks).

yarray, shape (n_samples,) | (n_samples, n_targets)

The target values.

Returns

scorearray, shape (n_samples, n_estimators)

Score for each estimator/task.

Decoding sensor space data with generalization across time and conditions

set_params(**params)

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

transform(X)

Transform each data slice/task with a series of independent estimators.

The number of tasks in X should match the number of tasks/estimators given at fit time.

Parameters

Xarray, shape (n_samples, nd_features, n_tasks)

The input samples. For each data slice/task, the corresponding estimator makes a transformation of the data, e.g. [estimators[ii].transform(X[..., ii]) for ii in range(n_estimators)]. The feature dimension can be multidimensional e.g. X.shape = (n_samples, n_features_1, n_features_2, n_tasks).

Returns

Xtarray, shape (n_samples, n_estimators)

The transformed values generated by each estimator.
