Classification with Python

In this notebook we try to practice all the classification algorithms that we learned in this course.

We load a dataset using Pandas library, and apply the following algorithms, and find the best one for this specific dataset by accuracy evaluation methods.

Lets first load required libraries:

import itertools
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
from matplotlib.ticker import NullFormatter
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.ticker as ticker
from sklearn import preprocessing
%matplotlib inline

About dataset

This dataset is about past loans. The Loan_train.csv data set includes details of 346 customers whose loan are already paid off or defaulted. It includes following fields:

Field Description
Loan_status Whether a loan is paid off on in collection
Principal Basic principal loan amount at the
Terms Origination terms which can be weekly (7 days), biweekly, and monthly payoff schedule
Effective_date When the loan got originated and took effects
Due_date Since it’s one-time payoff schedule, each loan has one single due date
Age Age of applicant
Education Education of applicant
Gender The gender of applicant

Lets download the dataset

Data visualization and pre-processing

Let’s see how many of each class is in our data set

df['loan_status'].value_counts()
PAIDOFF       260
COLLECTION     86
Name: loan_status, dtype: int64

260 people have paid off the loan on time while 86 have gone into collection

Lets plot some columns to underestand data better:

# notice: installing seaborn might takes a few minutes

Package plan for installation in environment /opt/conda/envs/DSX-Python35:

The following packages will be UPDATED:

    seaborn: 0.8.0-py35h15a2772_0 --> 0.9.0-py35_0 anaconda

import seaborn as sns

bins = np.linspace(df.Principal.min(), df.Principal.max(), 10)
g = sns.FacetGrid(df, col="Gender", hue="loan_status", palette="Set1", col_wrap=2)
g.map(plt.hist, 'Principal', bins=bins, ec="k")

g.map(plt.hist, 'age', bins=bins, ec="k")

g.axes[-1].legend()

Pre-processing: Feature selection/extraction

Lets look at the day of the week people get the loan

df['dayofweek'] = df['effective_date'].dt.dayofweek
bins = np.linspace(df.dayofweek.min(), df.dayofweek.max(), 10)
g = sns.FacetGrid(df, col="Gender", hue="loan_status", palette="Set1", col_wrap=2)
g.map(plt.hist, 'dayofweek', bins=bins, ec="k")
g.axes[-1].legend()
plt.show()

png

We see that people who get the loan at the end of the week dont pay it off, so lets use Feature binarization to set a threshold values less then day 4

df['weekend'] = df['dayofweek'].apply(lambda x: 1 if (x>3)  else 0)
df.head()
Unnamed: 0 Unnamed: 0.1 loan_status Principal terms effective_date due_date age education Gender dayofweek weekend
0 0 0 PAIDOFF 1000 30 2016-09-08 2016-10-07 45 High School or Below male 3 0
1 2 2 PAIDOFF 1000 30 2016-09-08 2016-10-07 33 Bechalor female 3 0
2 3 3 PAIDOFF 1000 15 2016-09-08 2016-09-22 27 college male 3 0

4 6 6 PAIDOFF 1000 30 2016-09-09 2016-10-08 29 college male 4 1

Convert Categorical features to numerical values

Lets look at gender:

df.groupby(['Gender'])['loan_status'].value_counts(normalize=True)
Gender  loan_status
female  PAIDOFF        0.865385
        COLLECTION     0.134615
male    PAIDOFF        0.731293
        COLLECTION     0.268707
Name: loan_status, dtype: float64

86 % of female pay there loans while only 73 % of males pay there loan

Lets convert male to 0 and female to 1:

df['Gender'].replace(to_replace=['male','female'], value=[0,1],inplace=True)
df.head()
Unnamed: 0 Unnamed: 0.1 loan_status Principal terms effective_date due_date age education Gender dayofweek weekend
0 0 0 PAIDOFF 1000 30 2016-09-08 2016-10-07 45 High School or Below 0 3 0

4 6 6 PAIDOFF 1000 30 2016-09-09 2016-10-08 29 college 0 4 1

One Hot Encoding

How about education?

df.groupby(['education'])['loan_status'].value_counts(normalize=True)
education             loan_status
Bechalor              PAIDOFF        0.750000
                      COLLECTION     0.250000
High School or Below  PAIDOFF        0.741722
                      COLLECTION     0.258278
Master or Above       COLLECTION     0.500000
                      PAIDOFF        0.500000
college               PAIDOFF        0.765101
                      COLLECTION     0.234899
Name: loan_status, dtype: float64

Feature befor One Hot Encoding

df[['Principal','terms','age','Gender','education']].head()
Principal terms age Gender education
0 1000 30 45 0 High School or Below
1 1000 30 33 1 Bechalor
2 1000 15 27 0 college
3 1000 30 28 1 college
4 1000 30 29 0 college

Use one hot encoding technique to conver categorical varables to binary variables and append them to the feature Data Frame

Feature = df[['Principal','terms','age','Gender','weekend']]
Feature = pd.concat([Feature,pd.get_dummies(df['education'])], axis=1)
Feature.drop(['Master or Above'], axis = 1,inplace=True)
Feature.head()

Principal terms age Gender weekend Bechalor High School or Below college
0 1000 30 45 0 0 0 1 0
1 1000 30 33 1 0 1 0 0
2 1000 15 27 0 0 0 0 1
3 1000 30 28 1 1 0 0 1
4 1000 30 29 0 1 0 0 1

Feature selection

Lets defind feature sets, X:

X = Feature
X[0:5]
Principal terms age Gender weekend Bechalor High School or Below college
0 1000 30 45 0 0 0 1 0
1 1000 30 33 1 0 1 0 0
2 1000 15 27 0 0 0 0 1
3 1000 30 28 1 1 0 0 1
4 1000 30 29 0 1 0 0 1

What are our lables?

y = df['loan_status'].values
y[0:5]
array(['PAIDOFF', 'PAIDOFF', 'PAIDOFF', 'PAIDOFF', 'PAIDOFF'], dtype=object)

Normalize Data

Data Standardization give data zero mean and unit variance (technically should be done after train test split )

X= preprocessing.StandardScaler().fit(X).transform(X)
X[0:5]

Classification

Now, it is your turn, use the training set to build an accurate model. Then use the test set to report the accuracy of the model You should use the following algorithm:

  • K Nearest Neighbor(KNN)
  • Decision Tree
  • Support Vector Machine
  • Logistic Regression

__ Notice:__

  • You can go above and change the pre-processing, feature selection, feature-extraction, and so on, to make a better model.
  • You should use either scikit-learn, Scipy or Numpy libraries for developing the classification algorithms.
  • You should include the code of the algorithm in the following cells.

K Nearest Neighbor(KNN)

Notice: You should find the best k to build the model with the best accuracy.
warning: You should not use the loan_test.csv for finding the best k, however, you can split your train_loan.csv into train and test to find the best k.

from sklearn.neighbors import KNeighborsClassifier
k = 6
#Train Model and Predict  
model_knn = KNeighborsClassifier(n_neighbors = k)
model_knn.fit(X,y)
model_knn
KNeighborsClassifier(algorithm='auto', leaf_size=30, metric='minkowski',
           metric_params=None, n_jobs=1, n_neighbors=6, p=2,
           weights='uniform')


Decision Tree

from sklearn.tree import DecisionTreeClassifier
model_tree = DecisionTreeClassifier(criterion="entropy", max_depth = 4)
model_tree.fit(X,y)
model_tree # it shows the default parameters
DecisionTreeClassifier(class_weight=None, criterion='entropy', max_depth=4,
            max_features=None, max_leaf_nodes=None,
            min_impurity_decrease=0.0, min_impurity_split=None,
            min_samples_leaf=1, min_samples_split=2,
            min_weight_fraction_leaf=0.0, presort=False, random_state=None,
            splitter='best')


Support Vector Machine

from sklearn import svm
model_svm = svm.SVC(kernel='linear')
model_svm.fit(X, y)
model_svm
SVC(C=1.0, cache_size=200, class_weight=None, coef0=0.0,
  decision_function_shape='ovr', degree=3, gamma='auto', kernel='linear',
  max_iter=-1, probability=False, random_state=None, shrinking=True,
  tol=0.001, verbose=False)


Logistic Regression

from sklearn.linear_model import LogisticRegression
model_lr = LogisticRegression(C=0.0001, solver='liblinear')
model_lr.fit(X,y)
model_lr
LogisticRegression(C=0.0001, class_weight=None, dual=False,
          fit_intercept=True, intercept_scaling=1, max_iter=100,
