xgboost.cv TypeError: cv() got multiple values for argument 'dtrain'-CodePudding

Im trying to manually test different hyperparameters for xgboost, but this error keeps coming. I'm not sure how im supplying multiple arguments to dtrain if it ends with a comma.

import xgboost as xgb
dtrain = xgb.DMatrix(X, label=y)
params = {'eta':[0.1]}
xgb_cv = xgb.cv(
    {'disable_default_eval_metric': 1},
    params,
    dtrain=dtrain,
    seed=1,
    nfold=5,
    custom_metric=f1_score
)

CodePudding user response：

The signature for xgboost.cv is (params, dtrain, ...). So it thinks you're passing the metric-disabling-dict as params, the eta-dict as dtrain, and then trying to pass another dtrain by keyword. If disable_default_eval_metric is supposed to be another parameter, add it to the params dictionary that contains eta instead.
