我们在使用GBDT、RF、Xgboost等树类模型建模时,都会有一个feature_importance的方法来返回特征重要性。下面总结了不同树类模型计算特征重要性的原理:
- Random Foreast
- 袋外数据错误率
- 基尼指数
- GBDT
- 基尼指数
- Xgboost
- gain:is the average gain of splits which use the feature。就是特征用于分割的平均增益
- weight:is the number of times a feature appears in a tree。就是在所有树中特征用来分割的节点个数总和
- cover:is the average coverage of splits which use the feature where coverage is defined as the number of samples affected by the split。可以理解为被分到该节点的样本的二阶导数之和,而特征度量的标准就是平均的coverage值
- Lightgbm
- split:result contains numbers of times the feature is used in a mode
- gain:result contains total gains of splits which use the feature
