How to get access of individual trees of a xgboost model in python/R ?

Below I'm getting from Random Forest trees from sklearn.

estimator = RandomForestRegressor(oob_score=True, n_estimators=10,max_features='auto') estimator.fit(tarning_data,traning_target) tree1 = estimator.estimators_[0]
leftChild = tree1.tree_.children_left  
rightChild = tree1.tree_.children_right

回答1:

Do you want to inspect the trees?

In Python, you can dump the trees as a list of strings:

m = xgb.XGBClassifier(max_depth=2, n_estimators=3).fit(X, y)
m.get_booster().get_dump()

['0:[sincelastrun<23.2917] yes=1,no=2,missing=2\n\t1:[sincelastrun<18.0417] yes=3,no=4,missing=4\n\t\t3:leaf=-0.0965415\n\t\t4:leaf=-0.0679503\n\t2:[sincelastrun<695.025] yes=5,no=6,missing=6\n\t\t5:leaf=-0.0992546\n\t\t6:leaf=-0.0984374\n',
 '0:[sincelastrun<23.2917] yes=1,no=2,missing=2\n\t1:[sincelastrun<16.8917] yes=3,no=4,missing=4\n\t\t3:leaf=-0.0928132\n\t\t4:leaf=-0.0676056\n\t2:[sincelastrun<695.025] yes=5,no=6,missing=6\n\t\t5:leaf=-0.0945284\n\t\t6:leaf=-0.0937463\n',
 '0:[sincelastrun<23.2917] yes=1,no=2,missing=2\n\t1:[sincelastrun<18.175] yes=3,no=4,missing=4\n\t\t3:leaf=-0.0878571\n\t\t4:leaf=-0.0610089\n\t2:[sincelastrun<695.025] yes=5,no=6,missing=6\n\t\t5:leaf=-0.0904395\n\t\t6:leaf=-0.0896808\n']

Or dump them to a file (with nice formatting):

m.get_booster().dump_model("out.txt")

booster[0]:
