ElasticNet

The ElasticNet algorithm uses the scikit-learn ElasticNet estimator to fit a model to predict the value of numeric fields. ElasticNet is a linear regression model that includes both L1 and L2 regularization and is a generalization of Lasso and Ridge. The kfold cross-validation command can be used with ElasticNet. See, K-fold_cross-validation.

For descriptions of the fit_intercept, normalize, alpha, and l1_ratio parameters, see the scikit-learn documentation at http://scikit-learn.org/stable/modules/generated/sklearn.linear_model.ElasticNet.html.

Syntax

fit ElasticNet <field_to_predict> from <explanatory_fields>
[into <model name>] [fit_intercept=<true|false>] [normalize=<true|false>]
[alpha=<int>] [l1_ratio=<int>]

You can save ElasticNet models using the into keyword and apply new data later using the apply command.

... | apply temperature_model

You can inspect the coefficients learned by ElasticNet with the summary command.

... | summary temperature_model

Example

The following example uses ElasticNet on a test set.

... | fit ElasticNet temperature from date_month date_hour normalize=true alpha=0.5 | ...
