Train Generalized Additive Model for Binary Classification

This example shows how to train a Generalized Additive Model (GAM) for Binary Classification with optimal parameters and how to assess the predictive performance of the trained model. The example first finds the optimal parameter values for a univariate GAM (parameters for linear terms) and then finds the values for a bivariate GAM (parameters for interaction terms). Also, the example explains how to interpret the trained model by examining local effects of terms on a specific prediction and by computing the partial dependence of the predictions on predictors.

Load Sample Data

Load the 1994 census data stored in census1994.mat. The data set consists of demographic data from the US Census Bureau to predict whether an individual makes over $50,000 per year. The classification task is to fit a model that predicts the salary category of people given their age, working class, education level, marital status, race, and so on.

load census1994

census1994 contains the training data set adultdata and the test data set adulttest. To reduce the running time for this example, subsample 500 training observations and 500 test observations by using the datasample function.

rng(1) % For reproducibility
NumSamples = 5e2;
adultdata = datasample(adultdata,NumSamples,'Replace',false);
adulttest = datasample(adulttest,NumSamples,'Replace',false);

Train GAM with Optimal Hyperparameters

Train a GAM with hyperparameters that minimize the cross-validation loss by using the OptimizeHyperparameters name-value argument.

You can specify OptimizeHyperparameters as 'auto' or 'all' to find optimal hyperparameter values for both univariate and bivariate parameters. Alternatively, you can find optimal values for univariate parameters using the 'auto-univariate' or 'all-univariate' option, and then find optimal values for bivariate parameters using the 'auto-bivariate' or 'all-bivariate' option. This example uses 'auto-univariate' and 'auto-bivariate'.

Train a univariate GAM. Specify OptimizeHyperparameters as 'auto-univariate' so that fitcgam finds optimal values of the InitialLearnRateForPredictors and NumTreesPerPredictor name-value arguments. For reproducibility, use the 'expected-improvement-plus' acquisition function. Specify ShowPlots as false and Verbose as 0 to disable plot and message displays, respectively.

                      NumObservations: 500
    HyperparameterOptimizationResults: [1×1 BayesianOptimization]


  Properties, Methods

fitcgam returns a ClassificationGAM model object that uses the best estimated feasible point. The best estimated feasible point indicates the set of hyperparameters that minimizes the upper confidence bound of the objective function value based on the underlying objective function model of the Bayesian optimization process. You can obtain the best point from the HyperparameterOptimizationResults property or by using the bestPoint function.

Train a bivariate GAM. Specify OptimizeHyperparameters as 'auto-bivariate' so that fitcgam finds optimal values of the InteractionsInitialLearnRateForInteractions, and NumTreesPerInteraction name-value arguments. Use the univariate parameter values in x so that the software finds optimal parameter values for interaction terms based on the x values.

The model display of Mdl shows a partial list of the model properties. To view the full list of the model properties, double-click the variable name Mdl in the Workspace. The Variables editor opens for Mdl. Alternatively, you can display the properties in the Command Window by using dot notation. For example, display the ReasonForTermination property.

Mdl.ReasonForTermination
ans = struct with fields:
      PredictorTrees: 'Terminated after training the requested number of trees.'
    InteractionTrees: 'Terminated after training the requested number of trees.'

You can use the ReasonForTermination property to determine whether the trained model contains the specified number of trees for each linear term and each interaction term.

Display the interaction terms in Mdl.

Mdl.Interactions
ans = 6×2

     5    12
     1     6
     6    12
     1    12
     7     9
     2     6

Each row of Interactions represents one interaction term and contains the column indexes of the predictor variables for the interaction term. You can use the Interactions property to check the interaction terms in the model and the order in which fitcgam adds them to the model.

Display the interaction terms in Mdl using the predictor names.

Mdl.PredictorNames(Mdl.Interactions)
ans = 6×2 cell
    {'marital_status'}    {'hours_per_week'}
    {'age'           }    {'occupation'    }
    {'occupation'    }    {'hours_per_week'}
    {'age'           }    {'hours_per_week'}
    {'relationship'  }    {'sex'           }
    {'workClass'     }    {'occupation'    }
