machine-learning - XGBoost predict_proba 推理性能慢

问题描述

我使用 Scikit-learn 和 XGBoost 在相同的数据上训练了 2 个梯度提升模型。

Scikit-learn 模型

GradientBoostingClassifier(
    n_estimators=5,
    learning_rate=0.17,
    max_depth=5,
    verbose=2
)

XGBoost 模型

XGBClassifier(
    n_estimators=5,
    learning_rate=0.17,
    max_depth=5,
    verbosity=2,
    eval_metric="logloss"
)

然后我检查了推理性能：

为什么 XGBoost 这么慢？

解决方案

“为什么 xgboost 这么慢？”：XGBClassifier()是用于 XGBoost 的 scikit-learn API（有关更多详细信息，请参见例如https://xgboost.readthedocs.io/en/latest/python/python_api.html#xgboost.XGBClassifier）。如果您直接调用该函数（而不是通过 API），它会更快。为了比较这两个函数的性能，直接调用每个函数是有意义的，而不是直接调用一个函数和通过 API 调用一个函数。这是一个例子：
