[SPARK-14817][ML][MLLIB][DOC] Made DataFrame-based API primary in MLlib guide
## What changes were proposed in this pull request? Made DataFrame-based API primary * Spark doc menu bar and other places now link to ml-guide.html, not mllib-guide.html * mllib-guide.html keeps RDD-specific list of features, with a link at the top redirecting people to ml-guide.html * ml-guide.html includes a "maintenance mode" announcement about the RDD-based API * **Reviewers: please check this carefully** * (minor) Titles for DF API no longer include "- spark.ml" suffix. Titles for RDD API have "- RDD-based API" suffix * Moved migration guide to ml-guide from mllib-guide * Also moved past guides from mllib-migration-guides to ml-migration-guides, with a redirect link on mllib-migration-guides * **Reviewers**: I did not change any of the content of the migration guides. Reorganized DataFrame-based guide: * ml-guide.html mimics the old mllib-guide.html page in terms of content: overview, migration guide, etc. * Moved Pipeline description into ml-pipeline.html and moved tuning into ml-tuning.html * **Reviewers**: I did not change the content of these guides, except some intro text. * Sidebar remains the same, but with pipeline and tuning sections added Other: * ml-classification-regression.html: Moved text about linear methods to new section in page ## How was this patch tested?

In the future, stateful algorithms may be supported via alternative concepts. - -Each instance of a `Transformer` or `Estimator` has a unique ID, which is useful in specifying parameters (discussed below). - -## Pipeline - -In machine learning, it is common to run a sequence of algorithms to process and learn from data. -E.g., a simple text document processing workflow might include several stages: - -* Split each document's text into words. -* Convert each document's words into a numerical feature vector. -* Learn a prediction model using the feature vectors and labels. - -Spark ML represents such a workflow as a `Pipeline`, which consists of a sequence of -`PipelineStage`s (`Transformer`s and `Estimator`s) to be run in a specific order. -We will use this simple workflow as a running example in this section. - -### How it works - -A `Pipeline` is specified as a sequence of stages, and each stage is either a `Transformer` or an `Estimator`. -These stages are run in order, and the input `DataFrame` is transformed as it passes through each stage. -For `Transformer` stages, the `transform()` method is called on the `DataFrame`. -For `Estimator` stages, the `fit()` method is called to produce a `Transformer` (which becomes part of the `PipelineModel`, or fitted `Pipeline`), and that `Transformer`'s `transform()` method is called on the `DataFrame`. - -We illustrate this for the simple text document workflow. The figure below is for the *training time* usage of a `Pipeline`. - -<p style="text-align: center;"> - <img - src="img/ml-Pipeline.png" - title="Spark ML Pipeline Example" - alt="Spark ML Pipeline Example" - width="80%" - /> -</p> - -Above, the top row represents a `Pipeline` with three stages. -The first two (`Tokenizer` and `HashingTF`) are `Transformer`s (blue), and the third (`LogisticRegression`) is an `Estimator` (red). -The bottom row represents data flowing through the pipeline, where cylinders indicate `DataFrame`s. -The `Pipeline.fit()` method is called on the original `DataFrame`, which has raw text documents and labels. -The `Tokenizer.transform()` method splits the raw text documents into words, adding a new column with words to the `DataFrame`. -The `HashingTF.transform()` method converts the words column into feature vectors, adding a new column with those vectors to the `DataFrame`. -Now, since `LogisticRegression` is an `Estimator`, the `Pipeline` first calls `LogisticRegression.fit()` to produce a `LogisticRegressionModel`. -If the `Pipeline` had more stages, it would call the `LogisticRegressionModel`'s `transform()` -method on the `DataFrame` before passing the `DataFrame` to the next stage. - -A `Pipeline` is an `Estimator`. -Thus, after a `Pipeline`'s `fit()` method runs, it produces a `PipelineModel`, which is a -`Transformer`. -This `PipelineModel` is used at *test time*; the figure below illustrates this usage. - -<p style="text-align: center;"> - <img - src="img/ml-PipelineModel.png" - title="Spark ML PipelineModel Example" - alt="Spark ML PipelineModel Example" - width="80%" - /> -</p> - -In the figure above, the `PipelineModel` has the same number of stages as the original `Pipeline`, but all `Estimator`s in the original `Pipeline` have become `Transformer`s. -When the `PipelineModel`'s `transform()` method is called on a test dataset, the data are passed -through the fitted pipeline in order. -Each stage's `transform()` method updates the dataset and passes it to the next stage. - -`Pipeline`s and `PipelineModel`s help to ensure that training and test data go through identical feature processing steps. - -### Details - -*DAG `Pipeline`s*: A `Pipeline`'s stages are specified as an ordered array. The examples given here are all for linear `Pipeline`s, i.e., `Pipeline`s in which each stage uses data produced by the previous stage. It is possible to create non-linear `Pipeline`s as long as the data flow graph forms a Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG). This graph is currently specified implicitly based on the input and output column names of each stage (generally specified as parameters). If the `Pipeline` forms a DAG, then the stages must be specified in topological order. - -*Runtime checking*: Since `Pipeline`s can operate on `DataFrame`s with varied types, they cannot use -compile-time type checking. -`Pipeline`s and `PipelineModel`s instead do runtime checking before actually running the `Pipeline`. -This type checking is done using the `DataFrame` *schema*, a description of the data types of columns in the `DataFrame`. - -*Unique Pipeline stages*: A `Pipeline`'s stages should be unique instances. E.g., the same instance -`myHashingTF` should not be inserted into the `Pipeline` twice since `Pipeline` stages must have -unique IDs. However, different instances `myHashingTF1` and `myHashingTF2` (both of type `HashingTF`) -can be put into the same `Pipeline` since different instances will be created with different IDs. - -## Parameters - -Spark ML `Estimator`s and `Transformer`s use a uniform API for specifying parameters. - -A `Param` is a named parameter with self-contained documentation. -A `ParamMap` is a set of (parameter, value) pairs. - -There are two main ways to pass parameters to an algorithm: - -1. Set parameters for an instance. E.g., if `lr` is an instance of `LogisticRegression`, one could - call `lr.setMaxIter(10)` to make `lr.fit()` use at most 10 iterations. - This API resembles the API used in `spark.mllib` package. -2. Pass a `ParamMap` to `fit()` or `transform()`. Any parameters in the `ParamMap` will override parameters previously specified via setter methods. - -Parameters belong to specific instances of `Estimator`s and `Transformer`s. -For example, if we have two `LogisticRegression` instances `lr1` and `lr2`, then we can build a `ParamMap` with both `maxIter` parameters specified: `ParamMap(lr1.maxIter -> 10, lr2.maxIter -> 20)`. -This is useful if there are two algorithms with the `maxIter` parameter in a `Pipeline`. - -## Saving and Loading Pipelines - -Often times it is worth it to save a model or a pipeline to disk for later use. In Spark 1.6, a model import/export functionality was added to the Pipeline API. Most basic transformers are supported as well as some of the more basic ML models. Please refer to the algorithm's API documentation to see if saving and loading is supported. - -# Code examples - -This section gives code examples illustrating the functionality discussed above. -For more info, please refer to the API documentation -([Scala](api/scala/index.html#org.apache.spark.ml.package), -[Java](api/java/org/apache/spark/ml/package-summary.html), -and [Python](api/python/pyspark.ml.html)). -Some Spark ML algorithms are wrappers for `spark.mllib` algorithms, and the -[MLlib programming guide](mllib-guide.html) has details on specific algorithms. - -## Example: Estimator, Transformer, and Param - -This example covers the concepts of `Estimator`, `Transformer`, and `Param`. +There are also utility methods available for converting single instances of +vectors and matrices.

This is also called *tuning*. -`Pipeline`s facilitate model selection by making it easy to tune an entire `Pipeline` at once, rather than tuning each element in the `Pipeline` separately. - -Currently, `spark.ml` supports model selection using the [`CrossValidator`](api/scala/index.html#org.apache.spark.ml.tuning.CrossValidator) class, which takes an `Estimator`, a set of `ParamMap`s, and an [`Evaluator`](api/scala/index.html#org.apache.spark.ml.evaluation.Evaluator). -`CrossValidator` begins by splitting the dataset into a set of *folds* which are used as separate training and test datasets; e.g., with `$k=3$` folds, `CrossValidator` will generate 3 (training, test) dataset pairs, each of which uses 2/3 of the data for training and 1/3 for testing. -`CrossValidator` iterates through the set of `ParamMap`s. For each `ParamMap`, it trains the given `Estimator` and evaluates it using the given `Evaluator`. - -The `Evaluator` can be a [`RegressionEvaluator`](api/scala/index.html#org.apache.spark.ml.evaluation.RegressionEvaluator) -for regression problems, a [`BinaryClassificationEvaluator`](api/scala/index.html#org.apache.spark.ml.evaluation.BinaryClassificationEvaluator) -for binary data, or a [`MulticlassClassificationEvaluator`](api/scala/index.html#org.apache.spark.ml.evaluation.MulticlassClassificationEvaluator) -for multiclass problems. The default metric used to choose the best `ParamMap` can be overridden by the `setMetricName` -method in each of these evaluators. - -The `ParamMap` which produces the best evaluation metric (averaged over the `$k$` folds) is selected as the best model. -`CrossValidator` finally fits the `Estimator` using the best `ParamMap` and the entire dataset. - -The following example demonstrates using `CrossValidator` to select from a grid of parameters. -To help construct the parameter grid, we use the [`ParamGridBuilder`](api/scala/index.html#org.apache.spark.ml.tuning.ParamGridBuilder) utility. - -Note that cross-validation over a grid of parameters is expensive. -E.g., in the example below, the parameter grid has 3 values for `hashingTF.numFeatures` and 2 values for `lr.regParam`, and `CrossValidator` uses 2 folds. This multiplies out to `$(3 \times 2) \times 2 = 12$` different models being trained. -In realistic settings, it can be common to try many more parameters and use more folds (`$k=3$` and `$k=10$` are common). -In other words, using `CrossValidator` can be very expensive. -However, it is also a well-established method for choosing parameters which is more statistically sound than heuristic hand-tuning. - -<div class="codetabs"> - -<div data-lang="scala"> -{% include_example scala/org/apache/spark/examples/ml/ModelSelectionViaCrossValidationExample.scala %} -</div> - -<div data-lang="java"> -{% include_example java/org/apache/spark/examples/ml/JavaModelSelectionViaCrossValidationExample.java %} -</div> - -<div data-lang="python"> - -{% include_example python/ml/cross_validator.py %} -</div> - -</div> - -## Example: model selection via train validation split -In addition to `CrossValidator` Spark also offers `TrainValidationSplit` for hyper-parameter tuning. -`TrainValidationSplit` only evaluates each combination of parameters once, as opposed to k times in - the case of `CrossValidator`. It is therefore less expensive, - but will not produce as reliable results when the training dataset is not sufficiently large. - -`TrainValidationSplit` takes an `Estimator`, a set of `ParamMap`s provided in the `estimatorParamMaps` parameter, -and an `Evaluator`. -It begins by splitting the dataset into two parts using the `trainRatio` parameter -which are used as separate training and test datasets. For example with `$trainRatio=0.75$` (default), -`TrainValidationSplit` will generate a training and test dataset pair where 75% of the data is used for training and 25% for validation. -Similar to `CrossValidator`, `TrainValidationSplit` also iterates through the set of `ParamMap`s. -For each combination of parameters, it trains the given `Estimator` and evaluates it using the given `Evaluator`. -The `ParamMap` which produces the best evaluation metric is selected as the best option. -`TrainValidationSplit` finally fits the `Estimator` using the best `ParamMap` and the entire dataset. - -<div class="codetabs"> - -<div data-lang="scala" markdown="1"> -{% include_example scala/org/apache/spark/examples/ml/ModelSelectionViaTrainValidationSplitExample.scala %} +Refer to the [`MLUtils` Scala docs](api/scala/index.html#org.apache.spark.mllib.util.MLUtils$) for further detail. </div> <div data-lang="java" markdown="1"> -{% include_example java/org/apache/spark/examples/ml/JavaModelSelectionViaTrainValidationSplitExample.java %} -</div> -<div data-lang="python"> -{% include_example python/ml/train_validation_split.py %} -</div> +{% highlight java %} +import org.apache.spark.mllib.util.MLUtils;

The first change (in `ALS`) is the only one in a component not marked as Alpha or Experimental. + +* *(Breaking change)* In [`ALS`](api/scala/index.html#org.apache.spark.mllib.recommendation.ALS), the extraneous method `solveLeastSquares` has been removed. The `DeveloperApi` method `analyzeBlocks` was also removed. +* *(Breaking change)* [`StandardScalerModel`](api/scala/index.html#org.apache.spark.mllib.feature.StandardScalerModel) remains an Alpha component. In it, the `variance` method has been replaced with the `std` method. To compute the column variance values returned by the original `variance` method, simply square the standard deviation values returned by `std`. +* *(Breaking change)* [`StreamingLinearRegressionWithSGD`](api/scala/index.html#org.apache.spark.mllib.regression.StreamingLinearRegressionWithSGD) remains an Experimental component. In it, there were two changes: + * The constructor taking arguments was removed in favor of a builder pattern using the default constructor plus parameter setter methods. + * Variable `model` is no longer public. +* *(Breaking change)* [`DecisionTree`](api/scala/index.html#org.apache.spark.mllib.tree.DecisionTree) remains an Experimental component. In it and its associated classes, there were several changes: + * In `DecisionTree`, the deprecated class method `train` has been removed. (The object/static `train` methods remain.) + * In `Strategy`, the `checkpointDir` parameter has been removed. Checkpointing is still supported, but the checkpoint directory must be set before calling tree and tree ensemble training. +* `PythonMLlibAPI` (the interface between Scala/Java and Python for MLlib) was a public API but is now private, declared `private[python]`. This was never meant for external use. +* In linear regression (including Lasso and ridge regression), the squared loss is now divided by 2. + So in order to produce the same result as in 1.2, the regularization parameter needs to be divided by 2 and the step size needs to be multiplied by 2. + +In the `spark.ml` package, the main API changes are from Spark SQL. We list the most important changes here: + +* The old [SchemaRDD](http://spark.apache.org/docs/1.2.1/api/scala/index.html#org.apache.spark.sql.SchemaRDD) has been replaced with [DataFrame](api/scala/index.html#org.apache.spark.sql.DataFrame) with a somewhat modified API. All algorithms in `spark.ml` which used to use SchemaRDD now use DataFrame. +* In Spark 1.2, we used implicit conversions from `RDD`s of `LabeledPoint` into `SchemaRDD`s by calling `import sqlContext._` where `sqlContext` was an instance of `SQLContext`. These implicits have been moved, so we now call `import sqlContext.implicits._`. +* Java APIs for SQL have also changed accordingly. Please see the examples above and the [Spark SQL Programming Guide](sql-programming-guide.html) for details. + +Other changes were in `LogisticRegression`: + +* The `scoreCol` output column (with default value "score") was renamed to be `probabilityCol` (with default value "probability"). The type was originally `Double` (for the probability of class 1.0), but it is now `Vector` (for the probability of each class, to support multiclass classification in the future). +* In Spark 1.2, `LogisticRegressionModel` did not include an intercept. In Spark 1.3, it includes an intercept; however, it will always be 0.0 since it uses the default settings for [spark.mllib.LogisticRegressionWithLBFGS](api/scala/index.html#org.apache.spark.mllib.classification.LogisticRegressionWithLBFGS). The option to use an intercept will be added in the future. + +## From 1.1 to 1.2 + +The only API changes in MLlib v1.2 are in +[`DecisionTree`](api/scala/index.html#org.apache.spark.mllib.tree.DecisionTree), +which continues to be an experimental API in MLlib 1.2: + +1. *(Breaking change)* The Scala API for classification takes a named argument specifying the number +of classes. In MLlib v1.1, this argument was called `numClasses` in Python and +`numClassesForClassification` in Scala. In MLlib v1.2, the names are both set to `numClasses`. +This `numClasses` parameter is specified either via +[`Strategy`](api/scala/index.html#org.apache.spark.mllib.tree.configuration.Strategy) +or via [`DecisionTree`](api/scala/index.html#org.apache.spark.mllib.tree.DecisionTree) +static `trainClassifier` and `trainRegressor` methods. + +2. *(Breaking change)* The API for +[`Node`](api/scala/index.html#org.apache.spark.mllib.tree.model.Node) has changed. +This should generally not affect user code, unless the user manually constructs decision trees +(instead of using the `trainClassifier` or `trainRegressor` methods). +The tree `Node` now includes more information, including the probability of the predicted label +(for classification). + +3. Printing methods' output has changed. The `toString` (Scala/Java) and `__repr__` (Python) methods used to print the full model; they now print a summary. For the full model, use `toDebugString`. + +Examples in the Spark distribution and examples in the +[Decision Trees Guide](mllib-decision-tree.html#examples) have been updated accordingly. + +## From 1.0 to 1.1 + +The only API changes in MLlib v1.1 are in +[`DecisionTree`](api/scala/index.html#org.apache.spark.mllib.tree.DecisionTree), +which continues to be an experimental API in MLlib 1.1: + +1. *(Breaking change)* The meaning of tree depth has been changed by 1 in order to match +the implementations of trees in +[scikit-learn](http://scikit-learn.org/stable/modules/classes.html#module-sklearn.tree) +and in [rpart](http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/rpart/index.html). +In MLlib v1.0, a depth-1 tree had 1 leaf node, and a depth-2 tree had 1 root node and 2 leaf nodes. +In MLlib v1.1, a depth-0 tree has 1 leaf node, and a depth-1 tree has 1 root node and 2 leaf nodes. +This depth is specified by the `maxDepth` parameter in +[`Strategy`](api/scala/index.html#org.apache.spark.mllib.tree.configuration.Strategy) +or via [`DecisionTree`](api/scala/index.html#org.apache.spark.mllib.tree.DecisionTree) +static `trainClassifier` and `trainRegressor` methods. + +2. *(Non-breaking change)* We recommend using the newly added `trainClassifier` and `trainRegressor` +methods to build a [`DecisionTree`](api/scala/index.html#org.apache.spark.mllib.tree.DecisionTree), +rather than using the old parameter class `Strategy`. These new training methods explicitly +separate classification and regression, and they replace specialized parameter types with +simple `String` types. + +Examples of the new, recommended `trainClassifier` and `trainRegressor` are given in the +[Decision Trees Guide](mllib-decision-tree.html#examples). + +## From 0.9 to 1.0 + +In MLlib v1.0, we support both dense and sparse input in a unified way, which introduces a few +breaking changes. If your data is sparse, please store it in a sparse format instead of dense to +take advantage of sparsity in both storage and computation.

See the code examples below and the [Spark SQL programming guide](sql-programming-guide.html) for examples. + +Columns in a `DataFrame` are named. The code examples below use names such as "text," "features," and "label." + +## Pipeline components + +### Transformers + +A `Transformer` is an abstraction that includes feature transformers and learned models. +Technically, a `Transformer` implements a method `transform()`, which converts one `DataFrame` into +another, generally by appending one or more columns. +For example: + +* A feature transformer might take a `DataFrame`, read a column (e.g., text), map it into a new + column (e.g., feature vectors), and output a new `DataFrame` with the mapped column appended. +* A learning model might take a `DataFrame`, read the column containing feature vectors, predict the + label for each feature vector, and output a new `DataFrame` with predicted labels appended as a + column. + +### Estimators + +An `Estimator` abstracts the concept of a learning algorithm or any algorithm that fits or trains on +data. +Technically, an `Estimator` implements a method `fit()`, which accepts a `DataFrame` and produces a +`Model`, which is a `Transformer`. +For example, a learning algorithm such as `LogisticRegression` is an `Estimator`, and calling +`fit()` trains a `LogisticRegressionModel`, which is a `Model` and hence a `Transformer`. + +### Properties of pipeline components + +`Transformer.transform()`s and `Estimator.fit()`s are both stateless. In the future, stateful algorithms may be supported via alternative concepts. + +Each instance of a `Transformer` or `Estimator` has a unique ID, which is useful in specifying parameters (discussed below). + +## Pipeline + +In machine learning, it is common to run a sequence of algorithms to process and learn from data. +E.g., a simple text document processing workflow might include several stages: + +* Split each document's text into words. +* Convert each document's words into a numerical feature vector. +* Learn a prediction model using the feature vectors and labels. + +MLlib represents such a workflow as a `Pipeline`, which consists of a sequence of +`PipelineStage`s (`Transformer`s and `Estimator`s) to be run in a specific order. +We will use this simple workflow as a running example in this section. + +### How it works + +A `Pipeline` is specified as a sequence of stages, and each stage is either a `Transformer` or an `Estimator`. +These stages are run in order, and the input `DataFrame` is transformed as it passes through each stage. +For `Transformer` stages, the `transform()` method is called on the `DataFrame`. +For `Estimator` stages, the `fit()` method is called to produce a `Transformer` (which becomes part of the `PipelineModel`, or fitted `Pipeline`), and that `Transformer`'s `transform()` method is called on the `DataFrame`. + +We illustrate this for the simple text document workflow. The figure below is for the *training time* usage of a `Pipeline`. + +<p style="text-align: center;"> + <img + src="img/ml-Pipeline.png" + title="ML Pipeline Example" + alt="ML Pipeline Example" + width="80%" + /> +</p> + +Above, the top row represents a `Pipeline` with three stages. +The first two (`Tokenizer` and `HashingTF`) are `Transformer`s (blue), and the third (`LogisticRegression`) is an `Estimator` (red). +The bottom row represents data flowing through the pipeline, where cylinders indicate `DataFrame`s. +The `Pipeline.fit()` method is called on the original `DataFrame`, which has raw text documents and labels. +The `Tokenizer.transform()` method splits the raw text documents into words, adding a new column with words to the `DataFrame`. +The `HashingTF.transform()` method converts the words column into feature vectors, adding a new column with those vectors to the `DataFrame`. +Now, since `LogisticRegression` is an `Estimator`, the `Pipeline` first calls `LogisticRegression.fit()` to produce a `LogisticRegressionModel`. +If the `Pipeline` had more stages, it would call the `LogisticRegressionModel`'s `transform()` +method on the `DataFrame` before passing the `DataFrame` to the next stage. + +A `Pipeline` is an `Estimator`. +Thus, after a `Pipeline`'s `fit()` method runs, it produces a `PipelineModel`, which is a +`Transformer`. +This `PipelineModel` is used at *test time*; the figure below illustrates this usage. + +<p style="text-align: center;"> + <img + src="img/ml-PipelineModel.png" + title="ML PipelineModel Example" + alt="ML PipelineModel Example" + width="80%" + /> +</p> + +In the figure above, the `PipelineModel` has the same number of stages as the original `Pipeline`, but all `Estimator`s in the original `Pipeline` have become `Transformer`s. +When the `PipelineModel`'s `transform()` method is called on a test dataset, the data are passed +through the fitted pipeline in order. +Each stage's `transform()` method updates the dataset and passes it to the next stage. + +`Pipeline`s and `PipelineModel`s help to ensure that training and test data go through identical feature processing steps. + +### Details + +*DAG `Pipeline`s*: A `Pipeline`'s stages are specified as an ordered array. The examples given here are all for linear `Pipeline`s, i.e., `Pipeline`s in which each stage uses data produced by the previous stage. It is possible to create non-linear `Pipeline`s as long as the data flow graph forms a Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG). This graph is currently specified implicitly based on the input and output column names of each stage (generally specified as parameters). If the `Pipeline` forms a DAG, then the stages must be specified in topological order. + +*Runtime checking*: Since `Pipeline`s can operate on `DataFrame`s with varied types, they cannot use +compile-time type checking. +`Pipeline`s and `PipelineModel`s instead do runtime checking before actually running the `Pipeline`. +This type checking is done using the `DataFrame` *schema*, a description of the data types of columns in the `DataFrame`. + +*Unique Pipeline stages*: A `Pipeline`'s stages should be unique instances. E.g., the same instance +`myHashingTF` should not be inserted into the `Pipeline` twice since `Pipeline` stages must have +unique IDs. However, different instances `myHashingTF1` and `myHashingTF2` (both of type `HashingTF`) +can be put into the same `Pipeline` since different instances will be created with different IDs. + +## Parameters + +MLlib `Estimator`s and `Transformer`s use a uniform API for specifying parameters. + +A `Param` is a named parameter with self-contained documentation. +A `ParamMap` is a set of (parameter, value) pairs. + +There are two main ways to pass parameters to an algorithm: + +1. Set parameters for an instance. E.g., if `lr` is an instance of `LogisticRegression`, one could + call `lr.setMaxIter(10)` to make `lr.fit()` use at most 10 iterations. + This API resembles the API used in `spark.mllib` package. +2. Pass a `ParamMap` to `fit()` or `transform()`. Any parameters in the `ParamMap` will override parameters previously specified via setter methods. + +Parameters belong to specific instances of `Estimator`s and `Transformer`s. +For example, if we have two `LogisticRegression` instances `lr1` and `lr2`, then we can build a `ParamMap` with both `maxIter` parameters specified: `ParamMap(lr1.maxIter -> 10, lr2.maxIter -> 20)`. +This is useful if there are two algorithms with the `maxIter` parameter in a `Pipeline`. + +## Saving and Loading Pipelines + +Often times it is worth it to save a model or a pipeline to disk for later use. In Spark 1.6, a model import/export functionality was added to the Pipeline API. Most basic transformers are supported as well as some of the more basic ML models. Please refer to the algorithm's API documentation to see if saving and loading is supported. + +# Code examples + +This section gives code examples illustrating the functionality discussed above. +For more info, please refer to the API documentation +([Scala](api/scala/index.html#org.apache.spark.ml.package), +[Java](api/java/org/apache/spark/ml/package-summary.html), +and [Python](api/python/pyspark.ml.html)). + +## Example: Estimator, Transformer, and Param + +This example covers the concepts of `Estimator`, `Transformer`, and `Param`. + +<div class="codetabs"> + +<div data-lang="scala"> +{% include_example scala/org/apache/spark/examples/ml/EstimatorTransformerParamExample.scala %} +</div> + +<div data-lang="java"> +{% include_example java/org/apache/spark/examples/ml/JavaEstimatorTransformerParamExample.java %} +</div> + +<div data-lang="python"> +{% include_example python/ml/estimator_transformer_param_example.py %} +</div> + +</div> + +## Example: Pipeline + +This example follows the simple text document `Pipeline` illustrated in the figures above. + +<div class="codetabs"> + +<div data-lang="scala"> +{% include_example scala/org/apache/spark/examples/ml/PipelineExample.scala %} +</div> + +<div data-lang="java"> +{% include_example java/org/apache/spark/examples/ml/JavaPipelineExample.java %} +</div> + +<div data-lang="python"> +{% include_example python/ml/pipeline_example.py %} +</div> + +</div> + +## Model selection (hyperparameter tuning) + +A big benefit of using ML Pipelines is hyperparameter optimization.

Users can tune an entire `Pipeline` at once, rather than tuning each element in the `Pipeline` separately. + +MLlib supports model selection using tools such as [`CrossValidator`](api/scala/index.html#org.apache.spark.ml.tuning.CrossValidator) and [`TrainValidationSplit`](api/scala/index.html#org.apache.spark.ml.tuning.TrainValidationSplit). +These tools require the following items: + +* [`Estimator`](api/scala/index.html#org.apache.spark.ml.Estimator): algorithm or `Pipeline` to tune +* Set of `ParamMap`s: parameters to choose from, sometimes called a "parameter grid" to search over +* [`Evaluator`](api/scala/index.html#org.apache.spark.ml.evaluation.Evaluator): metric to measure how well a fitted `Model` does on held-out test data + +At a high level, these model selection tools work as follows: + +* They split the input data into separate training and test datasets. +* For each (training, test) pair, they iterate through the set of `ParamMap`s: + * For each `ParamMap`, they fit the `Estimator` using those parameters, get the fitted `Model`, and evaluate the `Model`'s performance using the `Evaluator`. +* They select the `Model` produced by the best-performing set of parameters. + +The `Evaluator` can be a [`RegressionEvaluator`](api/scala/index.html#org.apache.spark.ml.evaluation.RegressionEvaluator) +for regression problems, a [`BinaryClassificationEvaluator`](api/scala/index.html#org.apache.spark.ml.evaluation.BinaryClassificationEvaluator) +for binary data, or a [`MulticlassClassificationEvaluator`](api/scala/index.html#org.apache.spark.ml.evaluation.MulticlassClassificationEvaluator) +for multiclass problems. The default metric used to choose the best `ParamMap` can be overridden by the `setMetricName` +method in each of these evaluators. + +To help construct the parameter grid, users can use the [`ParamGridBuilder`](api/scala/index.html#org.apache.spark.ml.tuning.ParamGridBuilder) utility. + +# Cross-Validation + +`CrossValidator` begins by splitting the dataset into a set of *folds* which are used as separate training and test datasets. E.g., with `$k=3$` folds, `CrossValidator` will generate 3 (training, test) dataset pairs, each of which uses 2/3 of the data for training and 1/3 for testing. To evaluate a particular `ParamMap`, `CrossValidator` computes the average evaluation metric for the 3 `Model`s produced by fitting the `Estimator` on the 3 different (training, test) dataset pairs. + +After identifying the best `ParamMap`, `CrossValidator` finally re-fits the `Estimator` using the best `ParamMap` and the entire dataset. + +## Example: model selection via cross-validation + +The following example demonstrates using `CrossValidator` to select from a grid of parameters. + +Note that cross-validation over a grid of parameters is expensive. +E.g., in the example below, the parameter grid has 3 values for `hashingTF.numFeatures` and 2 values for `lr.regParam`, and `CrossValidator` uses 2 folds. This multiplies out to `$(3 \times 2) \times 2 = 12$` different models being trained. +In realistic settings, it can be common to try many more parameters and use more folds (`$k=3$` and `$k=10$` are common). +In other words, using `CrossValidator` can be very expensive. +However, it is also a well-established method for choosing parameters which is more statistically sound than heuristic hand-tuning. + +<div class="codetabs"> + +<div data-lang="scala"> +{% include_example scala/org/apache/spark/examples/ml/ModelSelectionViaCrossValidationExample.scala %} +</div> + +<div data-lang="java"> +{% include_example java/org/apache/spark/examples/ml/JavaModelSelectionViaCrossValidationExample.java %} +</div> + +<div data-lang="python"> + +{% include_example python/ml/cross_validator.py %} +</div> + +</div> + +# Train-Validation Split + +In addition to `CrossValidator` Spark also offers `TrainValidationSplit` for hyper-parameter tuning. +`TrainValidationSplit` only evaluates each combination of parameters once, as opposed to k times in + the case of `CrossValidator`.
