pytorch-在竞赛中去摸索用法,用房价预测比赛了解数据处理流程
实战Kaggle比赛：房价预测
- 让我们动手实战一个Kaggle比赛：房价预测House Prices - Advanced Regression Techniques | Kaggle。本文将提供未经调优的数据的预处理、模型的设计和超参数的选择。通过动手操作、仔细观察实验现象、认真分析实验结果并不断调整方法，得到满意的结果。
获取和读取数据集
-
比赛数据分为训练数据集和测试数据集。两个数据集都包括每栋房子的特征，如街道类型、建造年份、房顶类型、地下室状况等特征值。这些特征值有连续的数字、离散的标签甚至是缺失值“na”。只有训练数据集包括了每栋房子的价格，也就是标签。可以访问比赛网页中的“Data”标签，并下载这些数据集。【You have accepted the rules for this competition. Good luck!】

查看前4个样本的前4个特征、后2个特征和标签（SalePrice）：
-
可以看到第一个特征是Id，它能帮助模型记住每个训练样本，但难以推广到测试样本，所以我们不使用它来训练。我们将所有的训练数据和测试数据的79个特征按样本连结。
-
all_features = pd.concat((train_data.iloc[:, 1:-1], test_data.iloc[:, 1:]))
预处理数据
-
对连续数值的特征做标准化（standardization）：设该特征在整个数据集上的均值为 μ \mu μ，标准差为 σ \sigma σ。那么，我们可以将该特征的每个值先减去 μ \mu μ再除以 σ \sigma σ得到标准化后的每个特征值。对于缺失的特征值，将其替换成该特征的均值。
-
numeric_features = all_features.dtypes[all_features.dtypes != 'object'].index all_features[numeric_features] = all_features[numeric_features].apply(lambda x: (x - x.mean()) / (x.std())) # 标准化后，每个数值特征的均值变为0，所以可以直接用0来替换缺失值 all_features[numeric_features] = all_features[numeric_features].fillna(0) -
接下来将离散数值转成指示特征。举个例子，假设特征MSZoning里面有两个不同的离散值RL和RM，那么这一步转换将去掉MSZoning特征，并新加两个特征MSZoning_RL和MSZoning_RM，其值为0或1。如果一个样本原来在MSZoning里的值为RL，那么有MSZoning_RL=1且MSZoning_RM=0。
-
# dummy_na=True将缺失值也当作合法的特征值并为其创建指示特征 all_features = pd.get_dummies(all_features, dummy_na=True) all_features.shape # (2919, 331) -
可以看到这一步转换将特征数从79增加到了331。最后，通过
values属性得到NumPy格式的数据，并转成Tensor方便后面的训练。 -
n_train = train_data.shape[0] train_features = torch.tensor(all_features[:n_train].values, dtype=torch.float) test_features = torch.tensor(all_features[n_train:].values, dtype=torch.float) train_labels = torch.tensor(train_data.SalePrice.values, dtype=torch.float).view(-1, 1)
训练模型
-
使用一个基本的线性回归模型和平方损失函数来训练模型。下面定义比赛用来评价模型的对数均方根误差。给定预测值 y ^ 1 , … , y ^ n \hat y_1, \ldots, \hat y_n y^1,…,y^n和对应的真实标签 y 1 , … , y n y_1,\ldots, y_n y1,…,yn，它的定义为 1 n ∑ i = 1 n ( log ( y i ) − log ( y ^ i ) ) 2 \sqrt{\frac{1}{n}\sum_{i=1}^n\left(\log(y_i)-\log(\hat y_i)\right)^2} n1∑i=1n(log(yi)−log(y^i))2.对数均方根误差的实现如下。
-
loss = torch.nn.MSELoss() def get_net(feature_num): net = nn.Linear(feature_num, 1) for param in net.parameters(): nn.init.normal_(param, mean=0, std=0.01) return net def log_rmse(net, features, labels): with torch.no_grad(): # 将小于1的值设成1，使得取对数时数值更稳定 clipped_preds = torch.max(net(features), torch.tensor(1.0)) rmse = torch.sqrt(loss(clipped_preds.log(), labels.log())) return rmse.item() -
下面的训练函数跟本章中前几节的不同在于使用了Adam优化算法。相对之前使用的小批量随机梯度下降，它对学习率相对不那么敏感。
-
def train(net, train_features, train_labels, test_features, test_labels, num_epochs, learning_rate, weight_decay, batch_size): train_ls, test_ls = [], [] dataset = torch.utils.data.TensorDataset(train_features, train_labels) train_iter = torch.utils.data.DataLoader(dataset, batch_size, shuffle=True) # 这里使用了Adam优化算法 optimizer = torch.optim.Adam(params=net.parameters(), lr=learning_rate, weight_decay=weight_decay) net = net.float() for epoch in range(num_epochs): for X, y in train_iter: l = loss(net(X.float()), y.float()) optimizer.zero_grad() l.backward() optimizer.step() train_ls.append(log_rmse(net, train_features, train_labels)) if test_labels is not None: test_ls.append(log_rmse(net, test_features, test_labels)) return train_ls, test_ls
K折交叉验证
-
它将被用来选择模型设计并调节超参数。下面实现了一个函数，它返回第
i折交叉验证时所需要的训练和验证数据。在K折交叉验证中我们训练K次并返回训练和验证的平均误差。 -
from IPython import display from matplotlib import pyplot as plt def use_svg_display(): # 用矢量图显示 display.display_svg() def set_figsize(figsize=(3.5, 2.5)): use_svg_display() # 设置图的尺寸 plt.rcParams['figure.figsize'] = figsize def semilogy(x_vals, y_vals, x_label, y_label, x2_vals=None, y2_vals=None, legend=None, figsize=(3.5, 2.5)): set_figsize(figsize) plt.xlabel(x_label) plt.ylabel(y_label) plt.semilogy(x_vals, y_vals) if x2_vals and y2_vals: plt.semilogy(x2_vals, y2_vals, linestyle=':') plt.legend(legend) def get_k_fold_data(k, i, X, y): # 返回第i折交叉验证时所需要的训练和验证数据 assert k > 1 fold_size = X.shape[0] // k X_train, y_train = None, None for j in range(k): idx = slice(j * fold_size, (j + 1) * fold_size) X_part, y_part = X[idx, :], y[idx] if j == i: X_valid, y_valid = X_part, y_part elif X_train is None: X_train, y_train = X_part, y_part else: X_train = torch.cat((X_train, X_part), dim=0) y_train = torch.cat((y_train, y_part), dim=0) return X_train, y_train, X_valid, y_valid def k_fold(k, X_train, y_train, num_epochs,learning_rate, weight_decay, batch_size): train_l_sum, valid_l_sum = 0, 0 for i in range(k): data = get_k_fold_data(k, i, X_train, y_train) net = get_net(X_train.shape[1]) train_ls, valid_ls = train(net, *data, num_epochs, learning_rate,weight_decay, batch_size) train_l_sum += train_ls[-1] valid_l_sum += valid_ls[-1] if i == 0: semilogy(range(1, num_epochs + 1), train_ls, 'epochs', 'rmse', range(1, num_epochs + 1), valid_ls, ['train', 'valid']) print('fold %d, train rmse %f, valid rmse %f' % (i, train_ls[-1], valid_ls[-1])) return train_l_sum / k, valid_l_sum / k
模型选择
-
使用一组未经调优的超参数并计算交叉验证误差。可以改动这些超参数来尽可能减小平均测试误差。
-
k, num_epochs, lr, weight_decay, batch_size = 5, 100, 5, 0, 64 train_l, valid_l = k_fold(k, train_features, train_labels, num_epochs, lr, weight_decay, batch_size) print('%d-fold validation: avg train rmse %f, avg valid rmse %f' % (k, train_l, valid_l)) -
-
有时候你会发现一组参数的训练误差可以达到很低，但是在K折交叉验证上的误差可能反而较高。这种现象很可能是由过拟合造成的。因此，当训练误差降低时，要观察K折交叉验证上的误差是否也相应降低。
预测并在Kaggle提交结果
-
定义预测函数。在预测之前，我们会使用完整的训练数据集来重新训练模型，并将预测结果存成提交所需要的格式。设计好模型并调好超参数之后，下一步就是对测试数据集上的房屋样本做价格预测。如果得到与交叉验证时差不多的训练误差，那么这个结果很可能是理想的，可以在Kaggle上提交结果。
-
def train_and_pred(train_features, test_features, train_labels, test_data,num_epochs, lr, weight_decay, batch_size): net = get_net(train_features.shape[1]) train_ls, _ = train(net, train_features, train_labels, None, None,ag-0-1gqj3d1amag-1-1gqj3d1am num_epochs, lr, weight_decay, batch_size) semilogy(range(1, num_epochs + 1), train_ls, 'epochs', 'rmse') print('train rmse %f' % train_ls[-1]) preds = net(test_features).detach().numpy() test_data['SalePrice'] = pd.Series(preds.reshape(1, -1)[0]) submission = pd.concat([test_data['Id'], test_data['SalePrice']], axis=1) submission.to_csv('./house-prices-advanced-regression-techniques/submission.csv', index=False) train_and_pred(train_features, test_features, train_labels, test_data, num_epochs, lr, weight_decay, batch_size) -
-
上述代码执行完之后会生成一个submission.csv文件。这个文件是符合Kaggle比赛要求的提交格式的。这时，我们可以在Kaggle上提交我们预测得出的结果，并且查看与测试数据集上真实房价（标签）的误差。
-
具体来说有以下几个步骤：登录Kaggle网站，访问房价预测比赛网页，并点击右侧“Submit Predictions”或“Late Submission”按钮；然后，点击页面下方“Upload Submission File”图标所在的虚线框选择需要提交的预测结果文件；最后，点击页面最下方的“Make Submission”按钮就可以查看结果了.
-
通常需要对真实数据做预处理。
-
可以使用K折交叉验证来选择模型并调节超参数。
