Parameters
----------
param_grid : dict of string to sequence, or sequence of such
The parameter grid to explore, as a dictionary mapping estimator
parameters to sequences of allowed values.
An empty dict signifies default parameters.
A sequence of dicts signifies a sequence of grids to search, and is
useful to avoid exploring parameter combinations that make no sense
or have no effect. See the examples below.
Examples
--------
>>> from sklearn.model_selection import ParameterGrid
>>> param_grid = {'a': [1, 2], 'b': [True, False]}
>>> list(ParameterGrid(param_grid)) == (
... [{'a': 1, 'b': True}, {'a': 1, 'b': False},

"""Generator on parameters sampled from given distributions.
Non-deterministic iterable over random candidate combinations for hyper-

sampling without replacement is performed. If at least one parameter
is given as a distribution, sampling with replacement is used.
It is highly recommended to use continuous distributions for continuous
parameters.
Note that before SciPy 0.16, the ``scipy.stats.distributions`` do not
accept a custom RNG instance and always use the singleton RNG from
``numpy.random``. Hence setting ``random_state`` will not guarantee a
deterministic iteration whenever ``scipy.stats`` distributions are used to
define the parameter search space. Deterministic behavior is however
guaranteed from SciPy 0.16 onwards.
Read more in the :ref:`User Guide <search>`.
Parameters
----------
param_distributions : dict
Dictionary where the keys are parameters and values
are distributions from which a parameter is to be sampled.
Distributions either have to provide a ``rvs`` function
to sample from them, or can be given as a list of values,
where a uniform distribution is assumed.
n_iter : integer
Number of parameter settings that are produced.
random_state : int, RandomState instance or None, optional (default=None)
Pseudo random number generator state used for random uniform sampling
from lists of possible values instead of scipy.stats distributions.
If int, random_state is the seed used by the random number generator;
If RandomState instance, random_state is the random number generator;
If None, the random number generator is the RandomState instance used
by `np.random`.
Returns
-------
params : dict of string to any
**Yields** dictionaries mapping each estimator parameter to
as sampled value.

(see :ref:`scoring`) to evaluate the predictions on the test set.
For evaluating multiple metrics, either give a list of (unique) strings
or a dict with names as keys and callables as values.
NOTE that when using custom scorers, each scorer should return a single
value. Metric functions returning a list/array of values can be wrapped
into multiple scorers that return one value each.
See :ref:`multimetric_grid_search` for an example.
If None, the estimator's score method is used.
n_jobs : int or None, optional (default=None)
Number of jobs to run in parallel.
``None`` means 1 unless in a :obj:`joblib.parallel_backend` context.
``-1`` means using all processors. See :term:`Glossary <n_jobs>`
for more details.
pre_dispatch : int, or string, optional
Controls the number of jobs that get dispatched during parallel
execution. Reducing this number can be useful to avoid an
explosion of memory consumption when more jobs get dispatched
than CPUs can process. This parameter can be:
- None, in which case all the jobs are immediately
created and spawned. Use this for lightweight and
fast-running jobs, to avoid delays due to on-demand
spawning of the jobs
- An int, giving the exact number of total jobs that are
spawned
- A string, giving an expression as a function of n_jobs,
as in '2*n_jobs'
iid : boolean, default='warn'
If True, return the average score across folds, weighted by the number
of samples in each test set. In this case, the data is assumed to be
identically distributed across the folds, and the loss minimized is
the total loss per sample, and not the mean loss across the folds. If
False, return the average score across folds. Default is True, but
will change to False in version 0.22, to correspond to the standard
definition of cross-validation.
.. versionchanged:: 0.20
Parameter ``iid`` will change from True to False by default in
version 0.22, and will be removed in 0.24.
cv : int, cross-validation generator or an iterable, optional
Determines the cross-validation splitting strategy.
Possible inputs for cv are:
- None, to use the default 3-fold cross validation,
- integer, to specify the number of folds in a `(Stratified)KFold`,
- :term:`CV splitter`,
- An iterable yielding (train, test) splits as arrays of indices.
For integer/None inputs, if the estimator is a classifier and ``y`` is
either binary or multiclass, :class:`StratifiedKFold` is used. In all
other cases, :class:`KFold` is used.
Refer :ref:`User Guide <cross_validation>` for the various
cross-validation strategies that can be used here.
.. versionchanged:: 0.20
``cv`` default value if None will change from 3-fold to 5-fold
in v0.22.
refit : boolean, string, or callable, default=True
Refit an estimator using the best found parameters on the whole
dataset.
For multiple metric evaluation, this needs to be a string denoting the
scorer that would be used to find the best parameters for refitting
the estimator at the end.
Where there are considerations other than maximum score in
choosing a best estimator, ``refit`` can be set to a function which
returns the selected ``best_index_`` given ``cv_results_``.
The refitted estimator is made available at the ``best_estimator_``
attribute and permits using ``predict`` directly on this
``GridSearchCV`` instance.
Also for multiple metric evaluation, the attributes ``best_index_``,
``best_score_`` and ``best_params_`` will only be available if
``refit`` is set and all of them will be determined w.r.t this specific
scorer. ``best_score_`` is not returned if refit is callable.
See ``scoring`` parameter to know more about multiple metric
evaluation.
.. versionchanged:: 0.20
Support for callable added.
verbose : integer
Controls the verbosity: the higher, the more messages.
error_score : 'raise' or numeric
Value to assign to the score if an error occurs in estimator fitting.
If set to 'raise', the error is raised. If a numeric value is given,
FitFailedWarning is raised. This parameter does not affect the refit
step, which will always raise the error. Default is 'raise' but from
version 0.22 it will change to np.nan.
return_train_score : boolean, default=False
If ``False``, the ``cv_results_`` attribute will not include training
scores.
Computing training scores is used to get insights on how different
parameter settings impact the overfitting/underfitting trade-off.
However computing the scores on the training set can be computationally
expensive and is not strictly required to select the parameters that
yield the best generalization performance.

Attributes
----------
cv_results_ : dict of numpy (masked) ndarrays
A dict with keys as column headers and values as columns, that can be

| 'rbf' | 0.2 | -- | 0.93 |...| 1 |
+------------+-----------+------------+-----------------+---+---------+
will be represented by a ``cv_results_`` dict of::
{
'param_kernel': masked_array(data = ['poly', 'poly', 'rbf', 'rbf'],
mask = [False False False False]...)
'param_gamma': masked_array(data = [-- -- 0.1 0.2],

'std_score_time' : [0.00, 0.00, 0.00, 0.01],
'params' : [{'kernel': 'poly', 'degree': 2}, ...],
}
NOTE
The key ``'params'`` is used to store a list of parameter
settings dicts for all the parameter candidates.
The ``mean_fit_time``, ``std_fit_time``, ``mean_score_time`` and
``std_score_time`` are all in seconds.
For multi-metric evaluation, the scores for all the scorers are
available in the ``cv_results_`` dict at the keys ending with that
scorer's name (``'_<scorer_name>'``) instead of ``'_score'`` shown
above. ('split0_test_precision', 'mean_train_precision' etc.)
best_estimator_ : estimator or dict
Estimator that was chosen by the search, i.e. estimator
which gave highest score (or smallest loss if specified)
on the left out data. Not available if ``refit=False``.
See ``refit`` parameter for more information on allowed values.
best_score_ : float
Mean cross-validated score of the best_estimator
For multi-metric evaluation, this is present only if ``refit`` is
specified.
best_params_ : dict
Parameter setting that gave the best results on the hold out data.
For multi-metric evaluation, this is present only if ``refit`` is
specified.
best_index_ : int
The index (of the ``cv_results_`` arrays) which corresponds to the best
candidate parameter setting.
The dict at ``search.cv_results_['params'][search.best_index_]`` gives
the parameter setting for the best model, that gives the highest
mean score (``search.best_score_``).
For multi-metric evaluation, this is present only if ``refit`` is
specified.
scorer_ : function or a dict
Scorer function used on the held out data to choose the best
parameters for the model.
For multi-metric evaluation, this attribute holds the validated
``scoring`` dict which maps the scorer key to the scorer callable.
n_splits_ : int
The number of cross-validation splits (folds/iterations).
refit_time_ : float
Seconds used for refitting the best model on the whole dataset.
This is present only if ``refit`` is not False.
Notes
-----
The parameters selected are those that maximize the score of the left out
data, unless an explicit score is passed in which case it is used instead.
If `n_jobs` was set to a value higher than one, the data is copied for each
point in the grid (and not `n_jobs` times). This is done for efficiency
reasons if individual jobs take very little time, but may raise errors if
the dataset is large and not enough memory is available. A workaround in
this case is to set `pre_dispatch`. Then, the memory is copied only
`pre_dispatch` many times. A reasonable value for `pre_dispatch` is `2 *
n_jobs`.

RandomizedSearchCV implements a "fit" and a "score" method.
It also implements "predict", "predict_proba", "decision_function",
"transform" and "inverse_transform" if they are implemented in the
estimator used.
The parameters of the estimator used to apply these methods are optimized
by cross-validated search over parameter settings.
In contrast to GridSearchCV, not all parameter values are tried out, but
rather a fixed number of parameter settings is sampled from the specified
distributions. The number of parameter settings that are tried is
given by n_iter.
If all parameters are presented as a list,
sampling without replacement is performed. If at least one parameter
is given as a distribution, sampling with replacement is used.
It is highly recommended to use continuous distributions for continuous
parameters.
Note that before SciPy 0.16, the ``scipy.stats.distributions`` do not
accept a custom RNG instance and always use the singleton RNG from
``numpy.random``. Hence setting ``random_state`` will not guarantee a
deterministic iteration whenever ``scipy.stats`` distributions are used to
define the parameter search space.
Read more in the :ref:`User Guide <randomized_parameter_search>`.
Parameters
----------
estimator : estimator object.
A object of that type is instantiated for each grid point.
This is assumed to implement the scikit-learn estimator interface.
Either estimator needs to provide a ``score`` function,
or ``scoring`` must be passed.
param_distributions : dict
Dictionary with parameters names (string) as keys and distributions
or lists of parameters to try. Distributions must provide a ``rvs``
method for sampling (such as those from scipy.stats.distributions).
If a list is given, it is sampled uniformly.
n_iter : int, default=10
Number of parameter settings that are sampled. n_iter trades
off runtime vs quality of the solution.
scoring : string, callable, list/tuple, dict or None, default: None
A single string (see :ref:`scoring_parameter`) or a callable
(see :ref:`scoring`) to evaluate the predictions on the test set.
For evaluating multiple metrics, either give a list of (unique) strings
or a dict with names as keys and callables as values.
NOTE that when using custom scorers, each scorer should return a single
value. Metric functions returning a list/array of values can be wrapped
into multiple scorers that return one value each.
See :ref:`multimetric_grid_search` for an example.
If None, the estimator's score method is used.
n_jobs : int or None, optional (default=None)
Number of jobs to run in parallel.
``None`` means 1 unless in a :obj:`joblib.parallel_backend` context.
``-1`` means using all processors. See :term:`Glossary <n_jobs>`
for more details.
pre_dispatch : int, or string, optional
Controls the number of jobs that get dispatched during parallel
execution. Reducing this number can be useful to avoid an
explosion of memory consumption when more jobs get dispatched
than CPUs can process. This parameter can be:
- None, in which case all the jobs are immediately
created and spawned. Use this for lightweight and

spawning of the jobs
- An int, giving the exact number of total jobs that are
spawned
- A string, giving an expression as a function of n_jobs,
as in '2*n_jobs'
iid : boolean, default='warn'
If True, return the average score across folds, weighted by the number
of samples in each test set. In this case, the data is assumed to be
identically distributed across the folds, and the loss minimized is
the total loss per sample, and not the mean loss across the folds. If
False, return the average score across folds. Default is True, but
will change to False in version 0.22, to correspond to the standard
definition of cross-validation.
.. versionchanged:: 0.20
Parameter ``iid`` will change from True to False by default in
version 0.22, and will be removed in 0.24.
cv : int, cross-validation generator or an iterable, optional
Determines the cross-validation splitting strategy.
Possible inputs for cv are:
- None, to use the default 3-fold cross validation,
- integer, to specify the number of folds in a `(Stratified)KFold`,
- :term:`CV splitter`,
- An iterable yielding (train, test) splits as arrays of indices.

cross-validation strategies that can be used here.
.. versionchanged:: 0.20
``cv`` default value if None will change from 3-fold to 5-fold
in v0.22.
refit : boolean, string, or callable, default=True
Refit an estimator using the best found parameters on the whole
dataset.
For multiple metric evaluation, this needs to be a string denoting the
scorer that would be used to find the best parameters for refitting
the estimator at the end.

``best_score_`` and ``best_params_`` will only be available if
``refit`` is set and all of them will be determined w.r.t this specific
scorer. When refit is callable, ``best_score_`` is disabled.
See ``scoring`` parameter to know more about multiple metric
evaluation.
.. versionchanged:: 0.20
Support for callable added.
verbose : integer
Controls the verbosity: the higher, the more messages.
random_state : int, RandomState instance or None, optional, default=None
Pseudo random number generator state used for random uniform sampling
from lists of possible values instead of scipy.stats distributions.
If int, random_state is the seed used by the random number generator;
If RandomState instance, random_state is the random number generator;
If None, the random number generator is the RandomState instance used
by `np.random`.
error_score : 'raise' or numeric
Value to assign to the score if an error occurs in estimator fitting.
If set to 'raise', the error is raised. If a numeric value is given,
FitFailedWarning is raised. This parameter does not affect the refit
