"""Weight Boosting

This module contains weight boosting estimators for both classification and
regression.

The module structure is the following:

- The ``BaseWeightBoosting`` base class implements a common ``fit`` method
  for all the estimators in the module. Regression and classification
  only differ from each other in the loss function that is optimized.

- ``AdaBoostClassifier`` implements adaptive boosting (AdaBoost-SAMME) for
  classification problems.

- ``AdaBoostRegressor`` implements adaptive boosting (AdaBoost.R2) for
  regression problems.

    more on difficult cases.

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

    Read more in the :ref:`User Guide <adaboost>`.

    .. versionadded:: 0.14

    Parameters
    ----------
    base_estimator : object, optional (default=None)
        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. If ``None``, then
        the base estimator is ``DecisionTreeClassifier(max_depth=1)``.

    n_estimators : int, 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`.

    Attributes
    ----------
    base_estimator_ : estimator
        The base estimator from which the ensemble is grown.

    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_ : ndarray of shape (n_features,)
        The feature importances if supported by the ``base_estimator``.

    See Also
    --------
    AdaBoostRegressor
        An AdaBoost regressor that begins by fitting a regressor on the
        original dataset and then fits additional copies of the regressor
        on the same dataset but where the weights of instances are
        adjusted according to the error of the current prediction.

    GradientBoostingClassifier
        GB builds an additive model in a forward stage-wise fashion. Regression
        trees are fit on the negative gradient of the binomial or multinomial
        deviance loss function. Binary classification is a special case where
        only a single regression tree is induced.

    sklearn.tree.DecisionTreeClassifier
        A non-parametric supervised learning method used for classification.
        Creates a model that predicts the value of a target variable by
        learning simple decision rules inferred from the data features.

    regressor on the same dataset but where the weights of instances are
    adjusted according to the error of the current prediction. As such,
    subsequent regressors focus more on difficult cases.

    This class implements the algorithm known as AdaBoost.R2 [2].

    Read more in the :ref:`User Guide <adaboost>`.

    .. versionadded:: 0.14

    Parameters
    ----------
    base_estimator : object, optional (default=None)
        The base estimator from which the boosted ensemble is built.
        If ``None``, then the base estimator is
        ``DecisionTreeRegressor(max_depth=3)``.

    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 regressor by
        ``learning_rate``. There is a trade-off between ``learning_rate`` and
        ``n_estimators``.

    loss : {'linear', 'square', 'exponential'}, optional (default='linear')
        The loss function to use when updating the weights after each
        boosting iteration.

    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`.

    Attributes
    ----------
    base_estimator_ : estimator
        The base estimator from which the ensemble is grown.

    estimators_ : list of classifiers
        The collection of fitted sub-estimators.

    estimator_weights_ : array of floats
        Weights for each estimator in the boosted ensemble.

    estimator_errors_ : array of floats
        Regression error for each estimator in the boosted ensemble.

    feature_importances_ : ndarray of shape (n_features,)
        The feature importances if supported by the ``base_estimator``.
