Mv

Mv artificial dataset.

Artificial dataset composed of both nominal and numeric features, whose features present co-dependencies. Originally described in 1.

The features are generated using the following expressions:

  • \(x_1\): uniformly distributed over [-5, 5].

  • \(x_2\): uniformly distributed over [-15, -10].

  • \(x_3\):

    • if \(x_1 > 0\), \(x_3 \leftarrow\) 'green'

    • else \(x_3 \leftarrow\) 'red' with probability \(0.4\) and \(x_3 \leftarrow\) 'brown' with probability \(0.6\).

  • \(x_4\):

    • if \(x_3 =\) 'green', \(x_4 \leftarrow x_1 + 2 x_2\)

    • else \(x_4 = \frac{x_1}{2}\) with probability \(0.3\) and \(x_4 = \frac{x_2}{2}\) with probability \(0.7\).

  • \(x_5\): uniformly distributed over [-1, 1].

  • \(x_6 \leftarrow x_4 \times \epsilon\), where \(\epsilon\) is uniformly distributed over [0, 5].

  • \(x_7\): 'yes' with probability \(0.3\), and 'no' with probability \(0.7\).

  • \(x_8\): 'normal' if \(x_5 < 0.5\) else 'large'.

  • \(x_9\): uniformly distributed over [100, 500].

  • \(x_{10}\): uniformly distributed integer over the interval [1000, 1200].

The target value is generated using the following rules:

  • if \(x_2 > 2\), \(y \leftarrow 35 - 0.5 x_4\)

  • else if \(-2 \le x_4 \le 2\), \(y \leftarrow 10 - 2 x_1\)

  • else if \(x_7 =\) 'yes', \(y \leftarrow 3 - \frac{x_1}{x_4}\)

  • else if \(x_8 =\) 'normal', \(y \leftarrow x_6 + x_1\)

  • else \(y \leftarrow \frac{x_1}{2}\).

Parameters

  • seed (int) – defaults to None

    Random seed number used for reproducibility.

Attributes

  • desc

    Return the description from the docstring.

>>> from river.datasets import synth

>>> dataset = synth.Mv(seed=42)
