max_iter values

[sacmax]

Hi,
Is there a way to find the optimal number for max_iter? I need to find it to reduce the runtime.
thanks,
Sac

Hi,

set the early_stopping parameter = True. Take a look at n_iter_no_change too. Both of them are implementet but not in the version you get from pip (at least the last time i checked it).

Here is the part of the current source

boruta_py/boruta/boruta_py.py

Line 117 in e04d1a1

early_stopping : bool, default = False

Hope this helps.

Thanks Wuuzzaa for your reply. Is there a easy way to get this version either using PIP or conda?

Conda and PIP still use version 0.3 (which does not support early stopping).

Imho the easiest way is too clone this repo (or only the boruta.py file) into your project at least this worked for me. If you do this ensure to import the cloned file and not the boruta 0.3.
