Autofeat
Autofeat is a Python library that provides sklearn-compatible linear prediction models with automated feature engineering and selection capabilities.
Overview
Autofeat simplifies the process of improving linear model performance by automating feature generation and selection. It first generates a wide range of non-linear features, then selects a small, robust subset of meaningful features that enhance the predictive power of linear models. This multi-step approach allows you to harness the interpretability of linear models without sacrificing accuracy.
Key Features:
- Automated Feature Generation and Selection: Automates the process of generating and selecting features for linear models for improved performance.
- Improved Performance and Interpretability: The generated features improve prediction accuracy while retaining the intuitive interpretability of linear models.
- Seamless Integration: Fully compatible with
scikit-learnpipelines, making it easy to integrate into your existing machine learning workflows.
Use Cases:
- Ideal for supervised learning tasks where model transparency is crucial for decision-making.
- Suitable for feature selection in large datasets, automating the discovery of important variables.
- Useful in scenarios where non-linear features need to be discovered and leveraged without complicating the model.
Note: The code is intended for research purposes. Results may vary depending on the dataset and use case.
Installation
Autofeat is available on PyPI, making it easy to install via pip:
pip install autofeat
