【机器学习】你应该知道的LightGBM各种操作！

LightGBM是基于XGBoost的一款可以快速并行的树模型框架，内部集成了多种集成学习思路，在代码实现上对XGBoost的节点划分进行了改进，内存占用更低训练速度更快。

1 安装方法

LightGBM的安装非常简单，在Linux下很方便的就可以开启GPU训练。可以优先选用从pip安装，如果失败再从源码安装。

安装方法：从源码安装


git clone --recursive https://github.com/microsoft/LightGBM ; 
cd LightGBM
mkdir build ; cd build
cmake ..

# 开启MPI通信机制，训练更快
# cmake -DUSE_MPI=ON ..

# GPU版本，训练更快
# cmake -DUSE_GPU=1 ..
make -j4

安装方法：pip安装

# 默认版本
pip install lightgbm

# MPI版本
pip install lightgbm --install-option=--mpi

# GPU版本
pip install lightgbm --install-option=--gpu

2 调用方法

在Python语言中LightGBM提供了两种调用方式，分为为原生的API和Scikit-learn API，两种方式都可以完成训练和验证。当然原生的API更加灵活，看个人习惯来进行选择。

2.1 定义数据集

df_train = pd.read_csv('https://cdn.coggle.club/LightGBM/examples/binary_classification/binary.train', header=None, sep='\t')
df_test = pd.read_csv('https://cdn.coggle.club/LightGBM/examples/binary_classification/binary.test', header=None, sep='\t')
W_train = pd.read_csv('https://cdn.coggle.club/LightGBM/examples/binary_classification/binary.train.weight', header=None)[0]
W_test = pd.read_csv('https://cdn.coggle.club/LightGBM/examples/binary_classification/binary.test.weight', header=None)[0]

y_train = df_train[0]
y_test = df_test[0]
X_train = df_train.drop(0, axis=1)
X_test = df_test.drop(0, axis=1)
num_train, num_feature = X_train.shape

# create dataset for lightgbm
# if you want to re-use data, remember to set free_raw_data=False

lgb_train = lgb.Dataset(X_train, y_train,
                        weight=W_train, free_raw_data=False)

lgb_eval = lgb.Dataset(X_test, y_test, reference=lgb_train,
                       weight=W_test, free_raw_data=False)

2.2 模型训练

params = {
    'boosting_type': 'gbdt',
    'objective': 'binary',
    'metric': 'binary_logloss',
    'num_leaves': 31,
    'learning_rate': 0.05,
    'feature_fraction': 0.9,
    'bagging_fraction': 0.8,
    'bagging_freq': 5,
    'verbose': 0
}

# generate feature names
feature_name = ['feature_' + str(col) for col in range(num_feature)]
gbm = lgb.train(params,
                lgb_train,
                num_boost_round=10,
                valid_sets=lgb_train,  # eval training data
                feature_name=feature_name,
                categorical_feature=[21])

2.3 模型保存与加载

# save model to file



    
gbm.save_model('model.txt')

print('Dumping model to JSON...')
model_json = gbm.dump_model()

with open('model.json', 'w+') as f:
    json.dump(model_json, f, indent=4)

2.4 查看特征重要性

# feature names
print('Feature names:', gbm.feature_name())

# feature importances
print('Feature importances:', list(gbm.feature_importance()))

2.5 继续训练

# continue training
# init_model accepts:
# 1. model file name
# 2. Booster()
gbm = lgb.train(params,
                lgb_train,
                num_boost_round=10,
                init_model='model.txt',
                valid_sets=lgb_eval)
print('Finished 10 - 20 rounds with model file...')

2.6 动态调整模型超参数

# decay learning rates
# learning_rates accepts:
# 1. list/tuple with length = num_boost_round
# 2. function(curr_iter)
gbm = lgb.train(params,
                lgb_train,
                num_boost_round=10,
                init_model=gbm,
                learning_rates=lambda iter: 0.05 * (0.99 ** iter),
                valid_sets=lgb_eval)
print('Finished 20 - 30 rounds with decay learning rates...')

# change other parameters during training
gbm = lgb.train(params,
                lgb_train,
                num_boost_round=10,
                init_model=gbm,
                valid_sets=lgb_eval,
                callbacks=[lgb.reset_parameter(bagging_fraction=[0.7] * 5 + [0.6] * 5)])
print('Finished 30 - 40 rounds with changing bagging_fraction...')

2.7 自定义损失函数

# self-defined objective function
# f(preds: array, train_data: Dataset) -> grad: array, hess: array
# log likelihood loss
def loglikelihood(preds, train_data):
    labels = train_data.get_label()
    preds = 1. / (1. + np.exp(-preds))
    grad = preds - labels
    hess = preds * (1. - preds)
    return grad, hess

# self-defined eval metric
# f(preds: array, train_data: Dataset) -> name: string, eval_result: float, is_higher_better: bool
# binary error
# NOTE: when you do customized loss function, the default prediction value is margin
# This may make built-in evalution metric calculate wrong results
# For example, we are doing log likelihood loss, the prediction is score before logistic transformation
# Keep this in mind when you use the customization
def binary_error(preds, train_data):
    labels = train_data.get_label()
    preds = 1. / (1. + np.exp(-preds))
    return 'error', np.mean(labels != (preds > 0.5)), False

gbm = lgb.train(params,
                lgb_train,
                num_boost_round=10,
                init_model=gbm,
                fobj=loglikelihood,
                feval=binary_error,
                valid_sets=lgb_eval)
print('Finished 40 - 50 rounds with self-defined objective function and eval metric...')

2.8 调参方法

人工调参

For Faster Speed

Use bagging by setting bagging_fraction and bagging_freq
Use feature sub-sampling by setting feature_fraction
Use small max_bin
Use save_binary to speed up data loading in future learning
Use parallel learning, refer to Parallel Learning Guide <.>__

For Better Accuracy

Use large max_bin (may be slower)
Use small learning_rate with large num_iterations
Use large num_leaves (may cause over-fitting)
Use bigger training data
Try dart

Deal with Over-fitting

Use small max_bin
Use small num_leaves
Use min_data_in_leaf and min_sum_hessian_in_leaf
Use bagging by set bagging_fraction and bagging_freq
Use feature sub-sampling by set feature_fraction
Use bigger training data
Try lambda_l1, lambda_l2 and min_gain_to_split for regularization
Try max_depth to avoid growing deep tree
Try extra_trees
Try increasing path_smooth
