**TPOT** stands for **T**ree-based **P**ipeline **O**ptimization **T**ool. Consider TPOT your **Data Science Assistant**. TPOT is a Python Automated Machine Learning tool that optimizes machine learning pipelines using genetic programming.
TPOT will automate the most tedious part of machine learning by intelligently exploring thousands of possible pipelines to find the best one for your data.
An example Machine Learning pipeline
Once TPOT is finished searching (or you get tired of waiting), it provides you with the Python code for the best pipeline it found so you can tinker with the pipeline from there.
TPOT is built on top of scikit-learn, so all of the code it generates should look familiar... if you're familiar with scikit-learn, anyway.
**TPOT is still under active development** and we encourage you to check back on this repository regularly for updates.
For further information about TPOT, please see the [project documentation](http://epistasislab.github.io/tpot/).
## License
Please see the [repository license](https://github.com/EpistasisLab/tpot/blob/master/LICENSE) for the licensing and usage information for TPOT.
Generally, we have licensed TPOT to make it as widely usable as possible.
## Installation
We maintain the [TPOT installation instructions](http://epistasislab.github.io/tpot/installing/) in the documentation. TPOT requires a working installation of Python.
## Usage
TPOT can be used [on the command line](http://epistasislab.github.io/tpot/using/#tpot-on-the-command-line) or [with Python code](http://epistasislab.github.io/tpot/using/#tpot-with-code).
Click on the corresponding links to find more information on TPOT usage in the documentation.
## Examples
### Classification
Below is a minimal working example with the optical recognition of handwritten digits dataset.
```python
from tpot import TPOTClassifier
from sklearn.datasets import load_digits
from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split
digits = load_digits()
X_train, X_test, y_train, y_test = train_test_split(digits.data, digits.target,
train_size=0.75, test_size=0.25, random_state=42)
tpot = TPOTClassifier(generations=5, population_size=50, verbosity=2, random_state=42)
tpot.fit(X_train, y_train)
print(tpot.score(X_test, y_test))
tpot.export('tpot_digits_pipeline.py')
```
Running this code should discover a pipeline that achieves about 98% testing accuracy, and the corresponding Python code should be exported to the `tpot_digits_pipeline.py` file and look similar to the following:
```python
import numpy as np
import pandas as pd
from sklearn.ensemble import RandomForestClassifier
from sklearn.linear_model import LogisticRegression
from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split
from sklearn.pipeline import make_pipeline, make_union
from sklearn.preprocessing import PolynomialFeatures
from tpot.builtins import StackingEstimator
from tpot.export_utils import set_param_recursive
# NOTE: Make sure that the outcome column is labeled 'target' in the data file
tpot_data = pd.read_csv('PATH/TO/DATA/FILE', sep='COLUMN_SEPARATOR', dtype=np.float64)
features = tpot_data.drop('target', axis=1)
training_features, testing_features, training_target, testing_target = \
train_test_split(features, tpot_data['target'], random_state=42)
# Average CV score on the training set was: 0.9799428471757372
exported_pipeline = make_pipeline(
PolynomialFeatures(degree=2, include_bias=False, interaction_only=False),
StackingEstimator(estimator=LogisticRegression(C=0.1, dual=False, penalty="l1")),
RandomForestClassifier(bootstrap=True, criterion="entropy", max_features=0.35000000000000003, min_samples_leaf=20, min_samples_split=19, n_estimators=100)
)
# Fix random state for all the steps in exported pipeline
set_param_recursive(exported_pipeline.steps, 'random_state', 42)
exported_pipeline.fit(training_features, training_target)
results = exported_pipeline.predict(testing_features)
```
### Regression
Similarly, TPOT can optimize pipelines for regression problems. Below is a minimal working example with the practice Boston housing prices data set.
```python
from tpot import TPOTRegressor
from sklearn.datasets import load_boston
from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split
housing = load_boston()
X_train, X_test, y_train, y_test = train_test_split(housing.data, housing.target,
train_size=0.75, test_size=0.25, random_state=42)
tpot = TPOTRegressor(generations=5, population_size=50, verbosity=2, random_state=42)
tpot.fit(X_train, y_train)
print(tpot.score(X_test, y_test))
tpot.export('tpot_boston_pipeline.py')
```
which should result in a pipeline that achieves about 12.77 mean squared error (MSE), and the Python code in `tpot_boston_pipeline.py` should look similar to:
```python
import numpy as np
import pandas as pd
from sklearn.ensemble import ExtraTreesRegressor
from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split
from sklearn.pipeline import make_pipeline
from sklearn.preprocessing import PolynomialFeatures
from tpot.export_utils import set_param_recursive
# NOTE: Make sure that the outcome column is labeled 'target' in the data file
tpot_data = pd.read_csv('PATH/TO/DATA/FILE', sep='COLUMN_SEPARATOR', dtype=np.float64)
features = tpot_data.drop('target', axis=1)
training_features, testing_features, training_target, testing_target = \
train_test_split(features, tpot_data['target'], random_state=42)
# Average CV score on the training set was: -10.812040755234403
exported_pipeline = make_pipeline(
PolynomialFeatures(degree=2, include_bias=False, interaction_only=False),
ExtraTreesRegressor(bootstrap=False, max_features=0.5, min_samples_leaf=2, min_samples_split=3, n_estimators=100)
)
# Fix random state for all the steps in exported pipeline
set_param_recursive(exported_pipeline.steps, 'random_state', 42)
exported_pipeline.fit(training_features, training_target)
results = exported_pipeline.predict(testing_features)
```
