Ridge
ridge(
x: ndarray,
y: ndarray,
alpha: float,
variables: list[str] | None = None,
intercept: bool = True,
) -> RidgeResult
Run ridge regression with an L2 penalty.
Inputs:
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| x | Design matrix. Shape (n, k). |
| y | Response vector. Shape (n,). |
| alpha | Non-negative L2 penalty weight. |
| variables | Optional names for the columns of x. Defaults to x0, x1, ... |
| intercept | If True, prepend an unpenalized intercept column to the returned design matrix. |
Returns:
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
RidgeResult |
Regression result with ridge penalty diagnostics. |
ridge_gs(
x: ndarray,
y: ndarray,
start: float,
stop: float,
num: int,
criterion: Literal["aic", "bic", "loss"] = "aic",
variables: list[str] | None = None,
intercept: bool = True,
) -> RidgeResult
Run ridge regression over a logarithmic alpha grid and return the best result under the selected criterion.
Inputs:
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| start | Positive lower endpoint for the alpha grid. |
| stop | Positive upper endpoint for the alpha grid. |
| num | Number of grid points. |
| criterion | Grid-search objective: AIC, BIC, or residual loss. |
| x, y, variables, intercept | Same contract as ridge(...). |
Additional Fields and Properties:
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| alpha | float64 |
Selected L2 penalty weight. |
| effective_dof | float64 |
Effective degrees of freedom used by grid-search criteria. |
| intercept | bool |
Whether the returned design includes an intercept column. |
| objective | RidgeObjective | None |
Grid-search criterion used to select alpha, if applicable. |
| objective_value | float64 | None |
Realized grid-search criterion value, if applicable. |
| l2_penalty | float64 |
Realized ridge penalty excluding the intercept term. |
Penalty Convention
When intercept=True, the intercept is not included in l2_penalty and is not regularized by the solver.
