How to get Best Estimator on GridSearchCV (Random Forest Classifier Scikit)

Question

I\'m running GridSearch CV to optimize the parameters of a classifier in scikit. Once I\'m done, I\'d like to know which parameters were chosen as the best.

Answer 1

You have to fit your data before you can get the best parameter combination.

from sklearn.grid_search import GridSearchCV
from sklearn.datasets import make_classification
from sklearn.ensemble import RandomForestClassifier
# Build a classification task using 3 informative features
X, y = make_classification(n_samples=1000,
                           n_features=10,
                           n_informative=3,
                           n_redundant=0,
                           n_repeated=0,
                           n_classes=2,
                           random_state=0,
                           shuffle=False)


rfc = RandomForestClassifier(n_jobs=-1,max_features= 'sqrt' ,n_estimators=50, oob_score = True) 

param_grid = { 
    'n_estimators': [200, 700],
    'max_features': ['auto', 'sqrt', 'log2']
}

CV_rfc = GridSearchCV(estimator=rfc, param_grid=param_grid, cv= 5)
CV_rfc.fit(X, y)
print CV_rfc.best_params_
