Parameters: n_estimators : integer, optional (default=100) The number of trees in the forest. criterion : string, optional (default=”gini”) The function to measure the quality of a split. Supported criteria are “gini” for the Gini impurity and “entropy” for the information gain. Note: this parameter is tree-specific. max_depth : integer or None, optional (default=None) The maximum depth of the tree. If None, then nodes are expanded until all leaves are pure or until all leaves contain less than min_samples_split samples. min_samples_split : int, float, optional (default=2) The minimum number of samples required to split an internal node: If int, then consider min_samples_split as the minimum number. If float, then min_samples_split is a percentage and ceil(min_samples_split * n_samples) are the minimum number of samples for each split. min_samples_leaf : int, float, optional (default=1) The minimum number of samples required to be at a leaf node: If int, then consider min_samples_leaf as the minimum number. If float, then min_samples_leaf is a fraction and ceil(min_samples_leaf * n_samples) are the minimum number of samples for each node. min_weight_fraction_leaf : float, optional (default=0.) The minimum weighted fraction of the sum total of weights (of all the input samples) required to be at a leaf node. Samples have equal weight when sample_weight is not provided. max_features : int, float, string or None, optional (default=”auto”) The number of features to consider when looking for the best split: If int, then consider max_features features at each split. If float, then max_features is a percentage and int(max_features * n_features) features are considered at each split. If “auto”, then max_features=sqrt(n_features). If “sqrt”, then max_features=sqrt(n_features) (same as “auto”). If “log2”, then max_features=log2(n_features). If None, then max_features=n_features. Note: the search for a split does not stop until at least one valid partition of the node samples is found, even if it requires to effectively inspect more than max_features features. max_leaf_nodes : int or None, optional (default=None) Grow trees with max_leaf_nodes in best-first fashion. Best nodes are defined as relative reduction in impurity. If None then unlimited number of leaf nodes. min_impurity_decrease : float, optional (default=0.) A node will be split if this split induces a decrease of the impurity greater than or equal to this value. The weighted impurity decrease equation is the following: N_t / N * (impurity - N_t_R / N_t * right_impurity - N_t_L / N_t * left_impurity)  where N is the total number of samples, N_t is the number of samples at the current node, N_t_L is the number of samples in the left child, and N_t_R is the number of samples in the right child. N, N_t, N_t_R and N_t_L all refer to the weighted sum, if sample_weight is passed. bootstrap : boolean, optional (default=True) Whether bootstrap samples are used when building trees. oob_score : bool (default=False) Whether to use out-of-bag samples to estimate the generalization accuracy. sampling_strategy : float, str, dict, callable, (default=’auto’) Sampling information to sample the data set. When float, it corresponds to the desired ratio of the number of samples in the majority class over the number of samples in the minority class after resampling. Therefore, the ratio is expressed as where and are the number of samples in the majority class after resampling and the number of samples in the minority class, respectively. Warning float is only available for binary classification. An error is raised for multi-class classification. When str, specify the class targeted by the resampling. The number of samples in the different classes will be equalized. Possible choices are: 'majority': resample only the majority class; 'not minority': resample all classes but the minority class; 'not majority': resample all classes but the majority class; 'all': resample all classes; 'auto': equivalent to 'not minority'. When dict, the keys correspond to the targeted classes. The values correspond to the desired number of samples for each targeted class. When callable, function taking y and returns a dict. The keys correspond to the targeted classes. The values correspond to the desired number of samples for each class. replacement : bool, optional (default=False) Whether or not to sample randomly with replacement or not. n_jobs : int, optional (default=1) The number of jobs to run in parallel for both fit and predict. If -1, then the number of jobs is set to the number of cores. random_state : int, RandomState instance or None, optional (default=None) Control the randomization of the algorithm. 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. verbose : int, optional (default=0) Controls the verbosity of the tree building process. warm_start : bool, optional (default=False) When set to True, reuse the solution of the previous call to fit and add more estimators to the ensemble, otherwise, just fit a whole new forest. class_weight : dict, list of dicts, “balanced”, “balanced_subsample” or None, optional (default=None) Weights associated with classes in the form dictionary with the key being the class_label and the value the weight. If not given, all classes are supposed to have weight one. For multi-output problems, a list of dicts can be provided in the same order as the columns of y. Note that for multioutput (including multilabel) weights should be defined for each class of every column in its own dict. For example, for four-class multilabel classification weights should be [{0: 1, 1: 1}, {0: 1, 1: 5}, {0: 1, 1: 1}, {0: 1, 1: 1}] instead of [{1:1}, {2:5}, {3:1}, {4:1}]. The “balanced” mode uses the values of y to automatically adjust weights inversely proportional to class frequencies in the input data as n_samples / (n_classes * np.bincount(y)) The “balanced_subsample” mode is the same as “balanced” except that weights are computed based on the bootstrap sample for every tree grown. For multi-output, the weights of each column of y will be multiplied. Note that these weights will be multiplied with sample_weight (passed through the fit method) if sample_weight is specified.
