UnusedFeatures#
- class UnusedFeatures[source]#
Detect features that are nearly unused by the model.
The check uses feature importance (either internally computed in appropriate models or calculated by permutation feature importance) to detect features that are not used by the model. From this list, the check sorts the features by their variance (as calculated by a PCA transformation). High variance unused features may be containing information that is ignored by the model.
- Parameters
- feature_importance_thresholdfloat , default: 0.2
A cutoff value for the feature importance, measured by the ratio of each features’ feature importance to the mean feature importance. Features with lower importance are not shown in the check display.
- feature_variance_thresholdfloat , default: 0.4
A cutoff value for the feature variance, measured by the ratio of each features’ feature variance to the mean feature variance. Unused features with lower variance are not shown in the check display.
- n_top_fi_to_showint , default: 5
The max number of important features to show in the check display.
- n_top_unused_to_showint , default: 15
The max number of unused features to show in the check display, from among unused features that have higher variance then is defined by feature_variance_threshold.
- random_stateint , default: 42
The random state to use for permutation feature importance and PCA.
