Parameter estimation using grid search with cross-validation¶
This examples shows how a classifier is optimized by cross-validation,
which is done using the :class:~sklearn.model_selection.GridSearchCV
object
on a development set that comprises only half of the available labeled data.
The performance of the selected hyper-parameters and trained model is then measured on a dedicated evaluation set that was not used during the model selection step.
More details on tools available for model selection can be found in the
sections on cross_validation
and grid_search
.
