Nature-inspired algorithms for hyper-parameter tuning of [scikit-learn](https://github.com/scikit-learn/scikit-learn) models. This package uses algorithms implementation from [NiaPy](https://github.com/NiaOrg/NiaPy).

## Installation

```shell script
$ pip install sklearn-nature-inspired-algorithms
```

To install this package on Fedora, run:

```sh
$ dnf install python3-sklearn-nature-inspired-algorithms
```

## Usage

The usage is similar to using sklearn's `GridSearchCV`. Refer to the [documentation](https://sklearn-nature-inspired-algorithms.readthedocs.io/en/stable/) for more detailed guides and more examples.

```python
from sklearn_nature_inspired_algorithms.model_selection import NatureInspiredSearchCV
from sklearn.ensemble import RandomForestClassifier

param_grid = {
'n_estimators': range(20, 100, 20),
'max_depth': range(2, 40, 2),
'min_samples_split': range(2, 20, 2),
'max_features': ["auto", "sqrt", "log2"],
}

clf = RandomForestClassifier(random_state=42)

nia_search = NatureInspiredSearchCV(
clf,
param_grid,
algorithm='hba', # hybrid bat algorithm
population_size=50,
max_n_gen=100,
max_stagnating_gen=10,
runs=3,
random_state=None, # or any number if you want same results on each run
)

nia_search.fit(X_train, y_train)

# the best params are stored in nia_search.best_params_
# finally you can train your model with best params from nia search
new_clf = RandomForestClassifier(**nia_search.best_params_, random_state=42)
```

Also you plot the search process with _line plot_ or _violin plot_.

```python
from sklearn_nature_inspired_algorithms.helpers import score_by_generation_lineplot, score_by_generation_violinplot

# line plot will plot all of the runs, you can specify the metric to be plotted ('min', 'max', 'median', 'mean')
score_by_generation_lineplot(nia_search, metric='max')

# in violin plot you need to specify the run to be plotted
score_by_generation_violinplot(nia_search, run=0)
```

Jupyter notebooks with full examples are available in [here](examples/notebooks).

### Using a Custom Nature-Inspired Algorithm

If you do not want to use any of the pre-defined algorithm configurations, you can use any algorithm from the [NiaPy](https://github.com/NiaOrg/NiaPy) collection.
This will allow you to have more control of the algorithm behavior.
Refer to their [documentation](https://niapy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) and [examples](https://github.com/NiaOrg/NiaPy/tree/master/examples) for the usage.

__Note:__ Use version >2.x.x of NiaPy package

```python
from niapy.algorithms.basic import GeneticAlgorithm

algorithm = GeneticAlgorithm() # when custom algorithm is provided random_state is ignored
algorithm.set_parameters(NP=50, Ts=5, Mr=0.25)

nia_search = NatureInspiredSearchCV(
clf,
param_grid,
algorithm=algorithm,
population_size=50,
max_n_gen=100,
max_stagnating_gen=20,
runs=3,
)

nia_search.fit(X_train, y_train)
```
