clfs.sg.sens

Module: clfs.sg.sens

Inheritance diagram for mvpa.clfs.sg.sens:

Provide sensitivity measures for sg’s SVM.

LinearSVMWeights

class mvpa.clfs.sg.sens.LinearSVMWeights(clf, **kwargs)

Bases: mvpa.measures.base.Sensitivity

Sensitivity that reports the weights of a linear SVM trained on a given Dataset.

Note

Available state variables:

  • base_sensitivities: Stores basic sensitivities if the sensitivity relies on combining multiple ones
  • biases+: Offsets of separating hyperplanes
  • null_prob+: State variable
  • null_t: State variable
  • raw_results: Computed results before applying any transformation algorithm

(States enabled by default are listed with +)

Sensitivity

Initialize the analyzer with the classifier it shall use.

Parameters:
  • clf (LinearSVM) – classifier to use. Only classifiers sub-classed from LinearSVM may be used.
  • enable_states (None or list of basestring) – Names of the state variables which should be enabled additionally to default ones
  • disable_states (None or list of basestring) – Names of the state variables which should be disabled
  • force_training (Bool) – if classifier was already trained – do not retrain
  • combiner (Functor) – The combiner is only applied if the computed featurewise dataset measure is more than one-dimensional. This is different from a transformer, which is always applied. By default, the sum of absolute values along the second axis is computed.
  • transformer (Functor) – This functor is called in __call__() to perform a final processing step on the to be returned dataset measure. If None, nothing is called
  • null_dist (instance of distribution estimator) – The estimated distribution is used to assign a probability for a certain value of the computed measure.
