* [dask] Use `distributed.MultiLock`
This enables training multiple models in parallel.
* Conditionally import `MultiLock`.
* Use async train directly in scikit learn interface.
* Use `worker_client` when available.
* Ensure RMM is 0.18 or later
* Add use_rmm flag to global configuration
* Modify XGBCachingDeviceAllocatorImpl to skip CUB when use_rmm=True
* Update the demo
* [CI] Pin NumPy to 1.19.4, since NumPy 1.19.5 doesn't work with latest Shap
* Save feature info in booster in JSON model.
* [breaking] Remove automatic feature name generation in `DMatrix`.
This PR is to enable reliable feature validation in Python package.
* Use normal predictor for dart booster.
* Implement `inplace_predict` for dart.
* Enable `dart` for dask interface now that it's thread-safe.
* categorical data should be working out of box for dart now.
The implementation is not very efficient as it has to pull back the data and
apply weight for each tree, but still a significant improvement over previous
implementation as now we no longer binary search for each sample.
* Fix output prediction shape on dataframe.
* Add a new API function for predicting on `DMatrix`. This function aligns
with rest of the `XGBoosterPredictFrom*` functions on semantic of function
arguments.
* Purge `ntree_limit` from libxgboost, use iteration instead.
* [dask] Use `inplace_predict` by default for dask sklearn models.
* [dask] Run prediction shape inference on worker instead of client.
The breaking change is in the Python sklearn `apply` function, I made it to be
consistent with other prediction functions where `best_iteration` is used by
default.
* Accept array interface for csr and array.
* Accept an optional proxy dmatrix for metainfo.
This constructs an explicit `_ProxyDMatrix` type in Python.
* Remove unused doc.
* Add strict output.
This PR changes predict and inplace_predict to accept a Future of model, to avoid sending models to workers repeatably.
* Document is updated to reflect functionality additions in recent changes.
* [dask] Use a 1 line sample to infer output shape.
This is for inferring shape with direct prediction (without DaskDMatrix).
There are a few things that requires known output shape before carrying out
actual prediction, including dask meta data, output dataframe columns.
* Infer output shape based on local prediction.
* Remove set param in predict function as it's not thread safe nor necessary as
we now let dask to decide the parallelism.
* Simplify prediction on `DaskDMatrix`.
The old (before fix) best_ntree_limit ignores the num_class parameters, which is incorrect. In before we workarounded it in c++ layer to avoid possible breaking changes on other language bindings. But the Python interpretation stayed incorrect. The PR fixed that in Python to consider num_class, but didn't remove the old workaround, so tree calculation in predictor is incorrect, see PredictBatch in CPUPredictor.
* Initial support for distributed LTR using dask.
* Support `qid` in libxgboost.
* Refactor `predict` and `n_features_in_`, `best_[score/iteration/ntree_limit]`
to avoid duplicated code.
* Define `DaskXGBRanker`.
The dask ranker doesn't support group structure, instead it uses query id and
convert to group ptr internally.
* For sklearn:
- Handles user defined objective function.
- Handles `softmax`.
* For dask:
- Use the implementation from sklearn, the previous implementation doesn't perform any extra handling.
* Implement early stopping with training continuation.
* Add new C API for obtaining boosted rounds.
* Fix off by 1 in `save_best`.
