101 Python datatable Exercises (pydatatable)

Python datatable is the newest package for data manipulation and analysis in Python. It carries the spirit of R’s data.table with similar syntax. It is super fast, much faster than pandas and has the ability to work with out-of-memory data. Looking at the performance it is on path to become a must-use package for data manipulation in python.

36. Machine Learning Exercise – How to use FTRL Model to calculate the probability of a person having diabetes?

 

Difficulty Level: L3

Question 1: Use Follow the Regularized Leader (Ftrl) Model to calculate the probability of a person having diabetes.

Question 2: Find the feature importance of the features used in model.

Input:

Training Data : pima_indian_diabetes_training_data.csv

Testing Data : pima_indian_diabetes_testing_data.csv

Show Solution
import datatable as dt
from datatable.models import Ftrl

# Import data
train_df = dt.fread('pima_indian_diabetes_training_data.csv')
test_df = dt.fread('pima_indian_diabetes_testing_data.csv')

# Create Ftrl model
ftrl_model = Ftrl()

#  add parameter values while creating model
ftrl_model = Ftrl(alpha = 0.1, lambda1 = 0.5, lambda2 = 0.6)

# change paramter of existing model
ftrl_model.alpha = 0.1
ftrl_model.lambda1 = 0.5
ftrl_model.lambda2 = 0.6

# Prepare training and test dataset
train_df[:,"diabetes"] = dt.Frame(np.where(train_df[:, dt.f["diabetes"] == "pos"], 1,0))
test_df[:,"diabetes"] = dt.Frame(np.where(test_df[:, dt.f["diabetes"] == "pos"], 1,0))

x_train = train_df[:, ["pregnant", "glucose", "pressure", "mass", "pedigree", "age"]]
y_train = train_df[:, ["diabetes"]]

x_test = test_df[:, ["pregnant", "glucose", "pressure", "mass", "pedigree", "age"]]
y_test = test_df[:, ["diabetes"]]

# training the model
ftrl_model.fit(x_train,y_train)

# predictions of the model
targets = ftrl_model.predict(x_test)
print(targets.head(5))
