Question

我需要一个SVM作为多标签分类器，因此我决定使用OneVsRestClassifier包装器。然而，问题出现了训练集变得非常不平衡：对于给定的类，有更多的负面例子而不是正面。这可以通过class_weight参数来解决，但是如果我在包含在OneVsRestClassifier中的分类器中使用它，我会收到错误：

from sklearn.svm import LinearSVC
from sklearn.multiclass import OneVsRestClassifier

weights = {'ham': 1, 'eggs': 2}
svm = OneVsRestClassifier(LinearSVC(class_weight=weights))

X = [[1, 2], [3, 4], [5, 6], [7, 8], [9, 0]]
Y = [['ham'], [], ['eggs', 'spam'], ['spam'], ['eggs']]

svm.fit(X, Y)

问题在于LinearSVC需要二进制类[0,1]。因此，为非二进制类（'ham'，'egg'或甚至[0,1,2]）赋予权重失败。但您可以使用“自动”权重，通过选择适当的权重自动“平衡”您的类。它也适用于您的多类OneVsRest分类器。

svm = OneVsRestClassifier(LinearSVC(class_weight='auto'))

X = [[1, 2], [3, 4], [5, 4]]
Y = [0,1,2]

svm.fit(X, Y)

如何在scikit-learn中为OneVsRestClassifier设置类权重？
