sklift.models.SoloModel
- class sklift.models.models.SoloModel(estimator, method='dummy')[source]
aka Treatment Dummy approach, or Single model approach, or S-Learner.
Fit solo model on whole dataset with ‘treatment’ as an additional feature.
Each object from the test sample is scored twice: with the communication flag equal to 1 and equal to 0. Subtracting the probabilities for each observation, we get the uplift.
Return delta of predictions for each example.

- Parameters
estimator (estimator object implementing 'fit') – The object to use to fit the data.
method (string, ’dummy’ or ’treatment_interaction’, default='dummy') –
Specifies the approach:
'dummy':Single model;
'treatment_interaction':Single model including treatment interactions.
- trmnt_preds_
Estimator predictions on samples when treatment.
- Type
array-like, shape (n_samples, )
- ctrl_preds_
Estimator predictions on samples when control.
- Type
array-like, shape (n_samples, )
Example:
# import approach from sklift.models import SoloModel # import any estimator adheres to scikit-learn conventions from catboost import CatBoostClassifier sm = SoloModel(CatBoostClassifier(verbose=100, random_state=777)) # define approach sm = sm.fit(X_train, y_train, treat_train, estimator_fit_params={{'plot': True}) # fit the model uplift_sm = sm.predict(X_val) # predict uplift

- fit(X, y, treatment, estimator_fit_params=None)[source]
Fit the model according to the given training data.
For each test example calculate predictions on new set twice: by the first and second models. After that calculate uplift as a delta between these predictions.
Return delta of predictions for each example.
- Parameters
X (array-like, shape (n_samples, n_features)) – Training vector, where n_samples is the number of samples and n_features is the number of features.
y (array-like, shape (n_samples,)) – Binary target vector relative to X.
treatment (array-like, shape (n_samples,)) – Binary treatment vector relative to X.
estimator_fit_params (dict, optional) – Parameters to pass to the fit method of the estimator.
