An AdaBoost classifier.

An AdaBoost [1] classifier is a meta-estimator that begins by fitting a classifier on the original dataset and then fits additional copies of the classifier on the same dataset but where the weights of incorrectly classified instances are adjusted such that subsequent classifiers focus more on difficult cases.

This class implements the algorithm known as AdaBoost-SAMME [2].

base_estimator : object, optional (default=DecisionTreeClassifier)
The base estimator from which the boosted ensemble is built. Support for sample weighting is required, as well as proper classes_ and n_classes_ attributes.
n_estimators : integer, optional (default=50)
The maximum number of estimators at which boosting is terminated. In case of perfect fit, the learning procedure is stopped early.
learning_rate : float, optional (default=1.)
Learning rate shrinks the contribution of each classifier by learning_rate. There is a trade-off between learning_rate and n_estimators.
algorithm : {‘SAMME’, ‘SAMME.R’}, optional (default=’SAMME.R’)
If ‘SAMME.R’ then use the SAMME.R real boosting algorithm. base_estimator must support calculation of class probabilities. If ‘SAMME’ then use the SAMME discrete boosting algorithm. The SAMME.R algorithm typically converges faster than SAMME, achieving a lower test error with fewer boosting iterations.
random_state : int, RandomState instance or None, optional (default=None)
If int, random_state is the seed used by the random number generator; If RandomState instance, random_state is the random number generator; If None, the random number generator is the RandomState instance used by np.random.
estimators_ : list of classifiers
The collection of fitted sub-estimators.
classes_ : array of shape = [n_classes]
The classes labels.
n_classes_ : int
The number of classes.
estimator_weights_ : array of floats
Weights for each estimator in the boosted ensemble.
estimator_errors_ : array of floats
Classification error for each estimator in the boosted ensemble.
feature_importances_ : array of shape = [n_features]
The feature importances if supported by the base_estimator.

Compute the decision function of X.

X : {array-like, sparse matrix} of shape = [n_samples, n_features]

The decision function of the input samples. The order of outputs is the same of that of the classes_ attribute. Binary classification is a special cases with k == 1, otherwise k==n_classes. For binary classification, values closer to -1 or 1 mean more like the first or second class in classes_, respectively.
