XGBoost hyperparameters depend on number of samples, how can I avoid constantly retraining as I collect more...
$begingroup$
I'm currently using this:
XGBRegressor(
learning_rate=0.2, n_estimators=100, max_depth=6, min_split_loss=0.1, min_child_weight=1,
reg_alpha=2, reg_lambda=2, scale_pos_weight=1, nthread=3, subsample=0.5, colsample_bytree=0.5
)
With n
samples, this works well. With 2n
samples, it overfits. With n/2
samples, it underfits. I have to change the learning_rate
and reg_alpha
whenever I change the number of samples. Is there a systematic way to make the hyperparameters independent of the number of input samples?
I could just make the hyperparameters variables dependent on the number of samples, but I'm wondering if there's a better way to do so.
