RidgeRegression

Model
DashAI.back.models.scikit_learn.RidgeRegression

Ridge regression with L2 regularisation to reduce coefficient magnitude.

Ridge Regression minimises the penalised least-squares objective ||y - Xw||^2 + alpha * ||w||^2, where alpha is the regularisation strength. The L2 penalty shrinks all coefficients towards zero but does not set any of them exactly to zero, making Ridge suitable for situations where many predictors contribute small effects or when features are highly collinear.

The solver (svd, cholesky, lsqr, sparse_cg, sag, saga, or auto) is selected based on data characteristics. Key hyperparameters are alpha, fit_intercept, solver, and tol. The implementation wraps scikit-learn's Ridge.

Parameters​

alpha : integer, default=1
Regularization strength; must be a positive float. Larger values specify stronger regularization.
fit_intercept : boolean, default=True
Whether to calculate the intercept for this model. If set to False, no intercept will be used in calculations (e.g., data is expected to be centered).
copy_X : boolean, default=True
If True, X will be copied; else, it may be overwritten.
max_iter : integer, default=100
Maximum number of iterations for conjugate gradient solver.
tol : number, default=0.001
Precision of the solution.
solver : string, default=auto
Solver to use in the computation. 'auto' chooses the solver automatically based on the type of data.
positive : boolean, default=False
When set to True, forces the coefficients to be positive.
random_state, default=None
The seed of the pseudo random number generator to use when shuffling the data. Pass an int for reproducible output across multiple function calls, or None to not set a specific seed.

Methods​

calculate_metrics(self, split: DashAI.back.core.enums.metrics.SplitEnum = <SplitEnum.VALIDATION: 'validation'>, level: DashAI.back.core.enums.metrics.LevelEnum = <LevelEnum.LAST: 'last'>, log_index: int = None, x_data: 'DashAIDataset' = None, y_data: 'DashAIDataset' = None)

Defined on BaseModel

Calculate and save metrics for a given data split and level.

Parameters

split : SplitEnum
The data split to evaluate (TRAIN, VALIDATION, or TEST). Defaults to SplitEnum.VALIDATION.
level : LevelEnum
The metric granularity level (LAST, TRIAL, STEP, or BATCH). Defaults to LevelEnum.LAST.
log_index : int, optional
Explicit step index for the metric entry. If None, the next step index is computed automatically. Defaults to None.
x_data : DashAIDataset, optional
Input features. If None, the dataset stored in the model for the given split is used. Defaults to None.
y_data : DashAIDataset, optional
Target labels. If None, the labels stored in the model for the given split are used. Defaults to None.

get_metadata(cls) -> Dict[str, Any]

Defined on BaseModel

Get metadata values for the current model.

Returns

Dict[str, Any]
Dictionary containing UI metadata such as the model icon used in the DashAI frontend.

get_schema(cls) -> dict

Defined on ConfigObject

Generates the component related Json Schema.

Returns

dict
Dictionary representing the Json Schema of the component.

load(filename: str) -> None

Defined on SklearnLikeModel

Deserialise a model from disk using joblib.

Parameters

filename : str
Path to the file previously written by :meth:save.

Returns

SklearnLikeModel
The loaded model instance.

predict(self, x_pred: 'DashAIDataset') -> 'ndarray'

Defined on SklearnLikeRegressor

Make a prediction with the model.

Parameters

x_pred : DashAIDataset

Returns

np.ndarray
Array with the predicted target values for x_pred

prepare_dataset(self, dataset: 'DashAIDataset', is_fit: bool = False) -> 'DashAIDataset'

Defined on SklearnLikeModel

Apply the model transformations to the dataset.

Parameters

dataset : DashAIDataset
The dataset to be transformed.
is_fit : bool, optional
If True, the method will fit encoders on the data. If False, will apply previously fitted encoders.
